For me its our highest ever position I'm mainly hoping for. We equal that if Villa don't beat City away, so pretty darn confident of that. We beat it if Villa don't win and one of Brentford, Newcastle and Palace don't win. Those three all have winnable games, but the odds are good with Leeds, Burnley and United all needing something on the final day. A draw gets us top half, but a defeat probably doesn't, and a win almost certainly gets 9th with Wolves playing Liverpool, and even 8th if the unpredictable Saints get something at Leicester.
So let's do our part so we don't have to worry about the rest. West Ham have a lot riding on it, hope United can get well ahead early on Palace for so many reasons

We could still miss out on top half with a draw if Brentford beat Leeds by three or more goals (quite possible).

It could, it seems unlikely, I'd actually be surprised if Leeds don't win, but I suppose they could implode if Brentford get one early and keep attacking on the break. But it will most likely be quite cagey from Leeds for the first hour as a draw could be enough for them.

Limp across the line with just enough, the Brighton way. Were loose and be 10-14th. Disappointing not to be top 10 after our recent run but I'm sure we'd have taken 14th and never in the bottom 3 or part of that conversation at the start of the season.
14 years ago I did. Sometimes I think I should change my name to the Realist. I just hope I'm not the Pessimist in another 14 years!
What are the odds for the opposite and us ending 8th?
Ding Dong !
Boy I'm HOT today !
A draw guarantees us 11th at worst.
That'll be good as well.

Probably about 5/1 needs us to win, Liverpool to beat Wolves and Leicester to not beat Southampton

Isn't it about 3m per place? That is a big 3 points for Tony on Sunday.
We only need three results to go our way for us to finish 8th. Us to win, Wolves to lose, Leicester to lose/draw. Just over 10/1 for that outcome.
According to Opta the Albion have a 75% probability of finishing top half of the table.
