Newcastle (A)
Brentford (H)
Everton (H)
Sevilla (H)
Nott'm Forest (A)
Sevilla (A)
Brighton (N)
Tottenham (A)
Aston Villa (H)

9 games in one month. Two european quater finals and one semi final. Unbelievable.
Mug’s game but I’m going to stick my neck out:

Newcastle (A) - Draw
Brentford (H) - Draw
Everton (H) - Win
Sevilla (H) - Win
Nott'm Forest (A) - Win
Sevilla (A) - Win
Brighton (N) - Loss
Tottenham (A) - Win
Aston Villa (H) - Draw

Think we’ll still have 3rd (maybe 4th if one of the chasers wins every game). Should get past Sevilla fairly handily. Got a feeling Brighton might knock us out with us being knackered again by then and Hag probably going full strength in the second leg no matter the score. I’m also taking into account another 1-2 injuries. Hope Varane/Martinez aren’t among them otherwise top four might genuinely be in jeopardy.

And just like that we're 5th.

Need 6 points from the Brentford and Everton games and I'm not confident we'll win either. Everton have played well tonight, lots of energy and Brentford always play that way. We look spent, and lacking in quality without Casemiro and Eriksen.

Brighton in the mix. What a job has been done there.

I think Felwin is right - looking at the run in to the end of the season I reckon we will pip the Geordies for 3rd.

Newcastle leading at Brentford after being 1-0 down at HT and with Brentford having a goal disallowed and a missed pen first half.

Fair play, they're a proper side, they'll get top 4.

Yeah, it's us v Tottenham for the last spot. 4 of our next 5 Prem games are away - and our away form is shite. One of those games is against Spurs too. So it could go down to the wire.

Our away form is a worry, as is the Rashford injury.

But out of the 3, I reckon I'd take our fixtures, given the chance.

The last game is supposed to be played all on the same time. According to this list both Man Utd and Newcastle are playing Chelsea in the last game.
How does that work?

Our chance of winning that game has vastly increased since the tories' Frank Lampard got the job.
