We are on 48 points and in 9th place, 2 wins would take us to 54 points. Chelsea in 10th place will reach 59 points if they win their 4 remaining games and Everton will reach 53 points if they win their 3 remaining games. Nothing short of 2 wins will guarantee it. For what its worth I don't think we will do it. |

I cant see Everton or Watford winning all their remaining games so I think 3 points would do it But who knows in this crazy season I can see Chelsea over taking us though |

Chelsea finishing above us is a given. Oh well, its all permutations, I just don't think it is nearly as nailed on as some people seem to assume. |

Neither do I fella - Palace is a bogey ground and West Ham are rather good - hence my 13th Guaranteed thread earlier |
