League Table so final match day is irrelevant

Question

With the final matchday of the Premier League coming up I’m just wondering if it was possible to show if there is a set of results from the previous 37 match days that would cause the final match to have no effect on the table.

That is, with 20 teams each playing each other twice throughout the season, is there a way of having the table so that there are at least 4 points between each team after 37 matches?

Very interested in seeing the answers!

Answer 1

Here is a possible table with $280$ matches won and lost and $90$ matches drawn.

It should be easy enough to arrange matches which satisfy this table (remembering each team has one it has not played)

 W   D   L  Points
26  11   0  89
25  10   2  85
24   9   4  81
23   8   6  77
22   7   8  73
21   6  10  69
20   5  12  65
19   4  14  61
18   3  16  57
17   2  18  53
16   1  20  49
14   3  20  45
12   5  20  41
10   7  20  37
 8   9  20  33
