I’m very confident you guys will stay up, you are good defensively and can grind out 1-0’s - 3 wins from those last 11 is likely to be enough.
Your home fixtures are almost ideal - probably playing Brentford and Villa when they are on the beach. Leeds and Everton both down there with you. Palace score even less than you do at the moment - if you can’t find 7/8 points from those games then you’ve no hope, but I think you will.

We win against teams like Liverpool and Spurs, but lose against Bournemouth. On Saturday we lost away to Newcastle, but that can't be seen as a bad result.
I would be disappointed if we don't get the following points:
Home games:
Leeds 3
Chelsea 0
Brentford 1
Palace 3
Villa 1
Everton 3
Away games:
Forest 1
Leicester 1
Brighton 0
Man Utd 0
Arsenal 0
13 points would give us 40 points, which is traditionally enough, but this year could be different.

If VAR had done it's job at Newcastle they would have been down to 10 men and you'd have had a pen at 0-0.
Having watched you a few times lately you should be fine, Palace and Leicester are in free fall.
Still not concerned at all. Since Julen came in we are ninth best.
Need a point a game from the eleven left. All this talk of how others are improving but yet several are still on less than a point a game.
Can't recall a season where so many sides have been in the relegation mix. I keep thinking back to that Bournemouth game and what a difference 3 points from that would have made. If we can keep collecting points at the rate we have been since boxing day we should be just about ok.
Current form is so important and right now in the last 5 games we are 17th.
Great article. Agree completely.
If 3 of the teams below us win their game in hand, we drop to 17th and if Bournemouth win their's, we are only ahead of a relegation spot on goal difference.
So, if we can't start scoring goals, then relegation is possibility, despite some who are not concerned at all.
Off topic, Dexter Lembikisa played the full 90 minutes in both of Jamaica's two recent friendlies.
Difficult not be a bit concerned given our ability to lose to pretty much anyone in the division. We could quite easily lose all our remaining home games.
We are just too easy to defend against. Next two fixtures are huge.
We will score another 17 goals this season yet from the 11 games left. I said 25 a while back and we have scored 8 in 7 games since. Suspect I will be a few short but we will score more goals than games left.
Phew! That’s good to know!
No need to be concerned then.
Exactly. Listen to uncle Cinci, he won't steer you wrong.
We have scored 8 goals in our last 8 league games. Take off the 3 we got against Liverpool and it leaves 5 from 7. At that rate your assumption that we can score more than the games we have left goes out the window. We also seem to do badly against teams around us.

No idea where that came from Wolfgang, but it's wrong. Our last 5 league games we have got 4 points, not 7. We've only scored 3. W1 D1 L3. After a very good start when our new coach arrived, we've gone backwards over the last few weeks.
Thanks Wolfgang.
Looks like wolfie has been on the Screwdrivers again. We have 7 points from the last 5 matches 👍
good news so far tonight, southampton and palace both losing
Bournemouth 0-1, Fulham 1-1, Liverpool 0-2, Spurs 1-0 and Newcastle 1-2. Like I said 4 points and 3 goals.

My apologies wolfie, seems as it's transfermarkt and myself that are not correct.
I think we are a better team now than a few months ago and the goals will come if we have a settled front line.
If Raul plays the rest of the season i think he is good for five.
