Boro's saving grace might be their goal difference. Their last six or so games look very difficult. Palace look fucked. They have to play all of the current top 8 bar Everton and only two games against sides currently in the bottom six, crucially both at home: Boro and Hull

My shouts for Hull and Swansea were made pre managerial changes and now look pretty bad. At the time I thought they were certs. I thought I was being all clever going for Boro with my third pick,  they now look more likely than the other two.

Boro  (Karanka looks like he's going to lose the plot again attacking the board and fans recently,Wonder if he'll go for another walkabout for a week.)

Leicester (Players look like they have downed tools.)

Sunderland (Moyes lolz.)

Hull's home form in all competitions since Silva took charge: 6W, 1D, 0L. The remaining home fixtures for them are Boro, Watford, Sunderland, and Spurs. Fancy them to stay up now, probably at the expense of Swansea. Sunderland are gone and Boro don't have enough goals to pull off the 4-5 wins that they need.

I called Boro's lack of goals early. But then I tipped Sunderland to survive so it was clearly all guesswork!

Sunderland for sure the shitest team in the league, Boro lacks of goal would also bring them down , that last team is either Hull or Swansea. A tough choice.

Hull and Swansea are in a fight. Burnley could get dragged into it as an outside shot.

Palace will be alright. However hard their fixtures are, they have far too much attacking talent.

Boro and Sunderland are gone I think.

The third spot is between Hull and Swansea, could go down to the last game of the seasom.
