Leicester will end up safe. I never really thought they would be in the dogfight, as many of us thought they would click eventually. They may as well beat Hull on Saturday now. Our fight will be against Bournemouth, Swansea, Middlesbro, Hull and Sunderland. Three from six teams will go down. Also, i still think 35 points will end up being enough based on the fixtures left for all the teams. I think with the new players we have now settling, we can get at least 10 points from our remaining home games, which will leave us needing 3 more points from our away games. I think we are due a surprise result against one of the big teams

Agree Leicester will get going and move away. We have to just concentrate on getting points and see where we end up. The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years

Why write off Leicester after one win. We was never gonna stay up on one win against boro but a loss on Saturday would of been relegation confirmed imo. We need to show the same commitment as Saturday and I think we've be fine. Also lcfc only 2 pts away to write them off is silly.

Liverpool were shocking yesterday... That was the first game Leicester have scored in in the league. How can you write them off already? If anything Swansea will be the team to pull away not Leicester. Also after seeing what was written about the players this week etc, they had to react in some way.

Liverpool were dire. Lucas is not a CB. They also created nothing going forward. Firmino was a bystander. Leicester have beat Man City and Liverpool but are still only 2 points off the bottom 3. They really aren't that great and have 2 pretty average old centre backs. I still think they will finish closer to 20th than 10th. Their game at the weekend has no bad result for us IMO. I can see Leicester losing. I also think they will get tonked by Sevilla which could easily knock their confidence. The only bad result at the weekend will be if we lose. WBA (annoyingly) a good side at the moment so it will be tough, but we've got a good enough side to get a result.

If Leicester are going to pull clear I don't think it affects us much. Obviously Sunderland must be favourite relegation candidates.Bournemouth will be dragged into the mix (they're doing a Crystal Palace ),Middlesbrough after doing reasonably have now lost a bit of form,Hull have done really well but now are feeling the loss of key players, and Swansea, although they've had a good run they still haven't broken clear. With my red and blue specs on I predict the teams to be relegated are Sunderland,Middlesbrough and Bournemouth.

I wish I was a neutral because when your team is safe these tight relegation scraps involving several teams make the end of the season much more interesting than watching the boring top of the table with Chelski 10 points clear (yawn) and oh dear will Manure make Europe (who gives a t*ss apart from the stock market). Sadly we're in the thick of it so put on the brown trousers.

We need a Leicester win or a draw. Palace need a win or draw followed up by beating Watford. Palace 13th 2017/18.
