If Arsenal fail to win, we beat West Ham, we are effectively guaranteed top 4, bar a big GD swing, regardless of the result in Utd-ChelseaAre done if we beat West Ham, Leicester beat Arsenal and Chelsea beat United?
That would leave the table:
Spurs 73
Chelsea 70
Arsenal 66
United 64
6 to play for means only Chelsea could overtake us.
Actually, if United do Chelsea, they'd be on 67 but with such an inferior goal difference to us, they'd need to win both their remaining games and us to lose both of ours by big score lines.
So Spurs, Leicester and United wins this weekend is the perfect storm?
We win/ Arsenal draw puts them 6 points behind with at least 8 goal swing and 2 games to go. A loss for them and win for us means they can't catch us.
United win - we can only be caught on GD as at least 6 ahead of all teams. United GD around 17 behind, Chelsea 11 behind
Chelsea win means United can't catch us. If Arsenal lose, top four is confirmed. Arsenal draw and they can only catch us on GD.
Draw means United can't catch us and Chelsea can only finish above us if we lose the last two and they win both.
