Forest, Bourenmouth, Southampton maybe. Wouldn't be surprised to see one of them stay up, but I reckon two of those will go down.

Forest, Bournemouth and I think we really might see a shock like West Ham.

Everton just won't flush. If they don't this season they never will.

Leicester surely have too much.

Has to be one of the hardest to call.

I think Leicester are in the most trouble. They don't seem to have any redeeming relegation escape qualities. Rodgers just hasn't got that in him to kick them up the backside.

Bournemouth are just too weak. Palace form has been so dreadful. West Ham are in a freefall with a Europa distraction.

Everton will be all right under Dyche. Southampton also I think will pull themselves out. Forest and Wolves maybe have enough.

Went for Crystal Palace, Everton and Wolves. Why? Because i want them to get relegated. But my head says Bournemouth, Southampton and probably not Everton.

Most fascinating situation in this league for about a decade, since the 2013/14 title race probably.  Can make a case for any of these going down.
Code: [Select]
12   C Palace      27 -13 27
13   Wolves        28 -19 27
14   Leeds        27 -9 26
15   Everton      28 -18 26
16   Nottm Forest 27 -27 26
17   Leicester    27 -9 25
18   West Ham      26 -10 24
19   Bournemouth  27 -29 24
20   Southampton  28 -23 23

Big spread in goal differences, which always tells you something, so Bournemouth, Southampton, Forest most likely.

But those three have a bit of spirit about them, which is absolutely crucial in a dogfight, whereas Leicester, West Ham and Palace have none.  It’s never going to be all three of them though.

Went for Southampton, Bournemouth and Leicester.

I voted Bournemouth, Southampton and Everton.

It's just who is going to be marginally less shit than the other shit sides. All of them will still drop a lot of points. I thought Leicester and West Ham would've sorted themselves out by now, but it seems like they're in it for the duration.

Strange seeing West Ham in the thick of it, seeing as they challenged for a CL place in 2021, and challenged the red mancs for 6th last season.

Then again, they've been known to yo-yo like that in the past. I hope they don't go though as I actually don't mind them

My only real interest in this is seeing Everton pulled into it and hopefully flushed. Outside of that I'm not really arsed

Everyone saying Southampton, I know they’re still bottom but feels like they have shown a bit more signs of life since they sacked their manager. Don’t they have us on the final day at home too? That’s a Bradford 2000 scenario if ever there was one!

Just needs one freak result for sides to get a boost. Before yesterday I reckon most would have gone for Leeds, but a big win at a relegation rival and they seem much better placed.

I think Bournemouth are the worst side in the league. They’re the ones I’d put most money in going down. Rest is anyone’s guess but I think the bigger clubs (West Ham, Leicester, probably Everton) will get themselves out of it.

This season we have given so many points to their relegation rivals, so the only way I am going to look back at this season if we dont get top four with a wry smile is by Everton getting relegated.

Everton to continue to be the blue turd floater. Bloody annoying, but Dyche is getting them moulded into his shiteball ways. Brentford putting in their worst performance of the season has given them a boost, then getting that jammy late equaliser against Chelsea. Just hoping the international break makes them stutter, especially with a tough April coming up.

Think it'll be Palace (imagine losing Viera as your manager and the OFC dodders into taking training, bringing his 'transferable' anti-football tactics?), along with Bournemouth and Southampton.

Forest, Southampton and Bournemouth. Southampton have fucked it with their managerial decisions this season. Hard to see Forest beating anyone, they're the worst team in the division and that's catching up with them. Bournemouth have a chance though. Leeds have 2 winnable home games next week, need at least 1 win there. Leicester need a reaction now. Palace's fixtures were a lot more winnable after the internationals and they've won the first of them.

West Ham, Wolves, Everton not out the woods at all but you know Everton will scab out of it for sure.

Wouldn't surprise me if they stay up on the final day beating Bournemouth at home. They needed at least four points from their run of fixtures against Brentford, Chelsea, Spurs and Manchester United to have a chance and they already have that. I think they'll probably get something out of Fulham at home as well as they've been on a bit of a slide as of late.

There’s a few teams with really bad runs of fixtures but Everton’s looks particularly bad. They still won’t be flushed though, just won’t happen.

This has the potential to be the most exciting relegation battle I've ever seen.

It could go down to the final couple of weeks and everyone can still survive, it's almost impossible to predict who will go down at this point, especially as late season form can change completely.

Palace: Leeds (A), Southampton (A), Everton (H), Wolves (A), West Ham (H), Tottenham (A)

Leeds: Crystal Palace (H), Liverpool (H), Fulham (A), Leicester (H), Bournemouth (A), Man City (A)

Wolves:  Chelsea (H), Brentford (H), Leicester (A), Crystal Palace (H), Brighton (A), Aston Villa (H)

West Ham: Newcastle (H), Fulham (A), Arsenal (H), Bournemouth (A), Liverpool (H), Crystal Palace (A)

Everton: Man United (A), Fulham (A), Crystal Palace (A), Newcastle (H), Leicester (A), Brighton (A)

Forest: Aston Villa (A), Man Utd (H), Liverpool (A), Brighton (H), Brentford (A), Southampton (H)

Bournemouth: Leicester (A), Tottenham (A), West Ham (H), Southampton (A), Leeds (H), Chelsea (H)

Leicester: Bournemouth (H), Man City (A), Wolves (H), Leeds (A), Everton (H), Fulham (A)

Southampton: Man City (A), Crystal Palace (H), Arsenal (A), Bournemouth (H), Newcastle (A), Nottingham Forest (A)

Forest's fixture list looks brutal, gonna need something special. Unfortunately I think they'll keep the shite up but who knows, will likely be plenty of change yet.

Final day could be utterly mental with 3-6 teams or more in danger of going down.
