[Albion] Apparently 8th place "still gets Europe", if...

[Triggaaar]

Villa to beat United - a draw will do
Forest to beat Chelsea
Us get atleast a point to Spurs - or Brentford don't beat Wolves
Chelsea to win the conference league

Edited for accuracy (I think)

and an alternative:
If we get a point to Spurs - or Brentford don't beat Wolves
AND
City get deducted 14+ points

I've simplyfied it here
(IF Chelsea lose at Forest
AND
Man City pick up 1 point against Bournemouth H or Fulham A
AND
Villa pick up 1 point against Man Utd A
AND
Newcastle don't lose by more than 2 to Everton H)
AND
(Brighton win draw at Spurs
OR
(Brentford fail to win at Wolves
AND
Bournemouth fail to beat both Man City or Leicester))
AND
Chelsea win the UCoL
I'd be interested to know what odds there are for all those results coming in.

Newcastle result is irrelevant.

If Chelsea lose and Newcastle also lose but by a much bigger margin and finish below Chelsea in 7th, 8th would still qualify for the Conference.

Forest will be up for it on Sunday. Home advantage and the reality of knowing they need to win the game for Champions League football. (As a draw won’t do them)

The City ground will be rocking and I really fancy them.

Villa getting something at Old Trafford is a given and United have absolutely nothing to play for.

I agree with you that it feels like both of these two results going our way is quite possible.

Industry experts judge it objectively, however, to be only about 25% probable...

The odds on doubles and accumulators multiply upwards for good reason. Your nightmare scenario of us getting very close, but one "surprise" scuppering it, is a clear and present danger.

If someone could be kind enough to keep us simpletons updated as to what’s needed step by step I’d really, really appreciate it. So we need City to win tonight? What happens if it’s a draw? Sorry but I just can’t keep up with this stuff, I’m a proper thicko.

In the league:

For us to finish 8th we need to not lose at spurs or if we do lose for Brentford not to win away at Wolves.

Then we need Villa to get a point at man utd and the big one is Forest beating chelsea.

Finally Chelsea to win the europa conference league.

all of those results seem perfectly achievable. whether they'll all happen is the big question.
