But the pair of them playoff for a place in next season’s Champions League on Wednesday.

I don’t understand this comment. As you’re applying the same rules to all the teams why should the relegation tracker be more pessimistic about us relative to the other teams round about us in the league?

To fall into 4th best season territory we’d have to get fewer than 2 points from our remaining 7 games. That would be quite an appalling run. To secure our 2nd best season we only need 5 points. To do no better than 1 win, 1 draw and 5 defeats would be quite a poor run.

The scale on the left is the number of points above or below the staying up tracker.
