Hoping for Stains, Plucky and one other. Don't care who.

Expecting Forest, Wolves and ... Stains. They are remarkably short of good players, especially forwards.
Wolves have decent players I'd have said, better than plucky, stains, forest and Everton. Decent manager too now and plenty of money for jan. Do you really think they'll drop?

Forest and Southampton would be my first two choices. Think Wolves and PLB (sadly) will have enough.

Everton might finally get in the bin which would be great. Don't rule out a disastrous run putting Villa or Leeds back in the shit too.

A big indicator at this stage of the season is GD.

The bottom 4 currently have GDs considerable worse than everyone else. Think all of them will be battling out down there until the end of the season.

Another good indicator is xG and xGA. It's obviously not perfect, but it gives you an idea of how many decent chances you're creating (and how many chances the opposition get). The league table based on xG and xGA looks like this (note team in 2nd place, as well as the bottom three!):

I like the fact we should have won 1 more game than we've actually played! :lolol:

I realise of course this will be the postponed Palace game, but made me chuckle.

Probably working!
Wolves, Everton & Villa.

I can see Bournemouth & Southampton scraping safety, I can see Forest getting enough points and West Ham and Leicester climbing the table, which leaves the above three to drop but I think it will go to the last few weeks with 7 or 8 clubs including Leeds facing danger after 30 games.
