All the above teams to play before they play us. If they do win all of the games, that will be a ten match winning run in the league.
Spurs, Everton(A), Rags, Palace(A) and Burnley(A) for us. Fully expect us to beat the posh in the cup so the Brighton game will get postponed. We have the tougher run without a doubt. It’s going to get extremely close IMHO.

7/1 at the bookies but dont go with Fred Done would hate to see a Rag laughing at you while he takes your money :(
 
Today the dippers won with a scrappy goal.
Although not offside, one of their players prevented the Burnley keeper from seeing where Fabinhos shot was coming from.
Burnley had 3 really good chances to score but messed up each time.
Burnley did play some nice football in patches.
On another day...

The dippers winning is good for City, no chance the dipper scum will catch City but them winning keeps minds focused especially for Champions league. Running away with the league will lead natutally to drop in levels which however small can be huge in champions league games.

"On another day" rarely happens to the Dippers though. In 2019 they had VAR, opposing goalkeepers and opposing forwards helping them to an incredible 97 points. Fortunately god willed us to 98 points.
They blitz teams and opponents lose concentration under pressure; see their 95th minute winner at Wolves.
We just need to keep winning. And if we beat them at our place they'll probably settle for second.

That’ll mean both teams will have played 30 games going into that game. Assuming we both win all of our games (big ask but I am being hypothetical) if they win the run in will be interesting, however if we win the increased gap and the lack of games left will finish off their challenge. I also think them having to beat us to have a chance plays into our hands.

CL and FA Cup will have a huge impact in terms of re-arranging fixtures. Dippers have to fit in Arsenal away, if they get through the cup then their game v the Rags gets moved, for us it's Brighton. Obviously, our game v them around the CL QF could be hugely impacted by that, it could be the defining week of the season. The longer we both go in the FA Cup, the more the fixture pile-up could take hold.

Just having to move that Rags game for the Dippers to the 19/20 April could have a big impact on the season, given their run of games there.
