A few interesting callouts:

- There are a *lot* of games between teams around the bottom still to go, so a lot of teams will be dropping points
- Bournemouth have played both Arsenal and Man City twice now
- Of the teams near the bottom, Southampton's fixtures are against teams with the highest average league position (8.23)
- Ours are statistically next hardest with 9.08 (same as Everton's)
- Palace's are easiest with 11.85 (they've had a really tough run lately though)

Great analysis thanks!

Worth noting Everton have also got one less game left too! Their game with Brentford next weekend seems pretty critical for them.

Leeds have some tricky games coming up, they will massively be targetting our game.

It certainly means there's a lot riding on games from here on out. Shame these are the games that tend to be on Saturdays as I'd want to watch them all! 

Lets try and enjoy it for as long as possible. I'm now pumped for next weekend already haha.

In the original post I've just underlined and italicised the matches between the bottom nine clubs. A few more interesting callouts from doing that:

- Palace have still got to play all eight teams below them, including a run of six on the trot. If they lose a few of them they could be dragged right into bother
- Everton have got a run of five hard games next. No wonder Dyche was so desperate to beat us
- Southampton and Bournemouth's next three and four games respectively all look tricky

[nffc93]

Palace's fixtures stand out to me beased on their current form. They could get sucked right in with a bit of luck.

Yes. Or they could sail clear by winning them all. Though that would also be doing us a favour (not including them winning the one vs. us of course).

Also - Everton vs. Bournemouth last game of the season could be mahoosive. In fact with us playing Palace and West Ham playing Leicester, six of the current bottom nine play each other on the final day.

[Salvatore Matrecano]

Thanks SR

Reckon the bottom 6 is Southampton Bournemouth Leeds Everton West Ham Forest.
Pick any 3 you want out of them to drop, I have no idea.
Palace Wolves and Leicester will all be Ok IMO.

[JollyLolly]

Lets concentrate on ourselves as nobody is going to do any favours on our behalf, looks like a difficult few months for us based on those fixtures. I hope both SC and the players are up for it otherwise we we will be looking at Championship fixtures this time next season!

[BadDog]

Can't see us getting a point in April.

Did you watch Leicester vs Southampton? They were pretty bad in that game, they clearly have more attacking prowess than the other 6 but their defence is also noticeably worse.

I would only take Wolves out so far, Palace haven't played well this year although their hard run of games recently is possibly giving them a slightly false position. They weren't good when we played them though and don't exactly look like scoring anytime soon.

You know we're not the players right? It's important to look at rivals to gauge where we are within the division in terms of quality. Plus if three of the other teams collapse we'd stay up so why would you not root for that outcome?!

[wassy04]

Can't see us getting a point in April.

You think we'll lose at home to Wolves, away at Leeds, away at Villa, home to Brighton, away at Brentford plus the Liverpool and Utd games?

You must be a riot on matchdays! We're unbeaten in 9 at home, we're not a great side but we're good at grinding results.

Sorry I'm out walking the dog and didn't see the dates properly. I usually predict a win for the most part at home.
