I don’t understand
Our average points are 41.72?
That’s more than anyone else, yet we’re bottom?

This might be skewed by the terrible runs of both Palace and Swansea, depending on when other teams faced them could have a big effect on the points won.

Couldn't give a toss what the stats say , that team bonding exercise in the last 5 minutes of yesterdays game will be worth it's weight in stayingupisms .

My preferred formula is that we need 8 more points and that we WILL get at least 7 of them from these 6 matches.
It is far from certain but the odds in our favour.
Obviously desperately hope we do it and then the fun will be to see if we can strengthen sufficiently to avoid such fine margins next year.

The sides we still have to face have an average of 41.727 points currently. This is higher than the average points of the sides to be faced by anyone else.

2 wins and 3 draws will do it. Where are all those who were convinced we were this years Middlesbrough? Equalled their points tally with 11 games to go.

Is my Maths suspect?
Utd 56
Burnley 36
Liverpool 51
= 143/3
= 47.666
Maybe I should have said average pts per club to be played?
My argument being:
Using the current pts per game as a standard for difficulty of run in.
I would rather have these three as last games of the season, than play them as our next 3.

One thing is for sure - this table will change week by week.
And by the final day - according to this analysis - Southampton will have the trickiest 1 game run in of them all.

The alt-3 'Real' League Table suggest that Southampton have had the 'easiest' fixture list up until this point, followed by...

We need about 2 wins and 3 draws from our last 11. Those two certainly seem like our best chances of wins, but a surprise win elsewhere could do it.

I've always thought we'd go down, but equally I still think we'll get a result against one of the big boys - hopefully Arsenal, and that might fuel a decent end to the season to survive. Nobody knows and the numbers mean very little whichever way you cut them.
Let's check:
Arse - 4th March - they could have the first leg of round of 16 Europa league shortly after, but they need to fight for 4th more.
City - 18th March - no CL games around then
Spurs - 21st Apr - they'll probably be out by then, but could have a semi-final on 24th/25th which would be good - still fighting for 4th though
Utd - 5th May - also probably out, but could have had a semi-final on 1st/2nd May
Liv - 13th May - No CL then
Can't see us getting much help there.

City away..its nailed on
Our GD is better than Stoke and Hudds, but not a lot different to the others, and could yet take a pasting with away games at Liverpool and City to look forward to.

Also doesn't take current form into account. Personally I think we might get something out of Leicester and Burnley, even if it's just a point.

Even if we didn’t take any points from the top 6 sides for the rest of the season, which I think we will, I think we have enough games left against sides where we can pick up points.
I would say home to Leicester and away to Burnley are very winnable in addition to the Swansea and Huddersfield games. Add in the definite potential for points away to Everton and Palace, I think we’ll be ok.
