The Leicester game will be very interesting, were a different beast to the last time we played them, you can almost say for sure the winner of that game will get top 4 and the loser will struggle.

Who do we want to win, Leicester or West Ham?

I actually prefer West Ham winning over Leicester. A draw would be ideal but Leicester winning means that they pull away from us and then we are realistically chasing 4th spot. West Ham winning means that both 3rd and 4th spot is in our sight and we have both of them to play. Both teams also have extremely difficult fixtures and if it stays this way, I am confident we will finish above both of them.

I agree that this improves our chances of catching Leicester. But have you seen West Ham's remaining matches? Apart from the game against us it looks very favorable. Even if we beat them they could well finish above us.

But without Antonio and Rice. Cresswell went off injured also. I would say all there remaining games are tough. Newcastle despite there position will not be easy, especially as they have Wilson and ASM back now. They have to play us also. Everton is by no means easy as there also competing for Europe. Brighton away from home is not easy and they still have to go to Burnley which is never easy. I am convinced West Ham will drop off.

Both spammers and Leicester look very beatable, Leicester’s run in is quite tough. I could still see both us and Liverpool in top 4. 

 
I think we will make it easy in the top 4.. our play and quality are so much better than both Westham and Leicester.. its a shame how utd get so many VAR handouts.. we are easily the second best team in the league.. hopefully next year we mount a serious challenge..

 
Well we really have a priority 6 pointer against the wet spam, and they are seriously playing well, that display against Palace, and suddenly we are playing better than them?, Linguard has give them some massive impetus 8 Goals in 9 Games, can’t see them folding up, Leicester are easily gettable, but our run in is vile.

Aye me as well. Having City away alone is one near nailed on dropped points.

The landscape will be different by the time we meet.

The game is sandwiched between their CL semi-final 2nd leg, and the FA cup final, they will already be champions by then, plus we will know by then if we are playing them in the CL final.

With that in mind the league game will be a dead rubber for them with nothing to gain and plenty to lose.

All this talk about favorable fixtures but we had the 'hardest' run in last year and the year before.

If our top 4 rivals were sweeping up in the 'easy' games they wouldn't be our top 4 rivals!

As long as out fate is in our hands I would back ourselves to get top 4, currently if we win all our games we get top 4 and I would back ourselves to beat West Ham & Leicester during our run of fixtures.

Once we start relying on others to do us favors is the time I would start worrying.

they have multiple injuries to contend with and probably their best two players in Rice and Antonio are out .. in a game of 90 minutes we should beat them and win our 6 pointer against them.. 

Their game play is pretty much counter attacking.. and the moment lingard gets attention.. he will not get the space to be as affective.. West Ham doesnt worry me.

 
West Ham play a lot of teams near the bottom what might be useful is if WBA and Fulham win a couple of matches to just concern those clubs above the bottom three then West Ham might struggle and they also have Everton to play. They might spring a surprise yet.

it's easy if you can convert fractions to percentages.

1/100 is 1% return, put on £100 get £101 back.

8/11 is 72.72% return, put on £100 and get £172.72 back.

2/1 is 200% return.

9/1 is 900% return

40 is 4000% return

66 is 6600% return, put on £100 get £6700 back.
