It will be Leeds & Leicester to join the Saints, Everton are not going to make a balls up of their last game.

I think the win at Brighton might just have been the result that saved them. Leeds and Leicester look like they haven’t got any fight in them when they go a goal down
 
Leicester full of players out of contract who just don't care and Leeds look absolutely gassed and resigned.
 
Although Leicester wouldn't be down if they lose to Newcastle tonight they've really got to get at least a point to have any chance as Everton will probably get something against Bournemouth.

The only reason Leeds might have a chance is they play Spurs who may want to avoid the Europa Conference.

Leeds need to win by at least three if Everton draw and I can't see that even if Spurs produce the most Spursey performance imaginable. I also can't see Bournemouth winning at Goodison having jogged the last mile after fleeing a burning coach.
Europa Conference could be a great confidence boost for Spurs if they hammer a few relative minnows in the group games, but could also be a drain on resources. There's also gate receipts and broadcast revenue to consider if their budgets are based on some level of European football.
 
Leicester have kept themselves alive going into the last day.

Leicester beat West Ham and Everton don't win. Leicester stay up. Not impossible.

Bournemouth seem to do well against Everton as well.Screenshot_20230522-221922_FotMob.jpg

If Leicester beat West Ham on Sunday then Everton are going to have to beat Bournemouth to stay up due to their inferior GD.

Imagine if Leicester are leading, and Everton losing, going into the last 20 minutes. I can see Leicester winning, but I can't see Everton fucking up. Not when they're at home.

I think Everton have only won 5 home games all season. Massive pressure on front of their own fans on Sunday. If Leicester go 1-0 at any point whilst Everton is still 0-0...Panic stations.

Interesting weekend ahead.

How many have they won on the road? If your 5 home wins figure is right, that means they've only won 2 away games.

Not so sure about that - they have only won 7 games all season, I think they will go.

Yep they only won 7 games all season so the other two are the away wins. BT were talking about it the day we beat Everton 3-0. I'm nearly sure they said it's Evertons worst or joint worst home defeats in a Premier League season.
 
Worse than Martinez, and that’s saying a lot. At least Bob had a decent squad. The current one are a shadow of that team, though I prefer Pickford to Howard.
 
I'm very grateful that the PL season ended for me on Saturday evening.

I couldn't care less about the rest of it, those that go down deserve it, and in many cases their lack of ambition is the reason.

Pleased for Brighton especially, they play decent football, and have worked hard for their european spot, and also for a newcastle mate too, though not for the majority of them tbh, but if it's a choice between them and liverpool, then it's a bit of a "no brainer".

Wow. Are Everton really that bad against Bournemouth. If that's the case then they aren't exactly going to have a easy sunday afternoon.
 
Leeds and Leicester players will lose heart If Everton get an early goal.
A draw might be good enough for the Toffees, it won't be good enough for the others but the crowd will be on their backs if either Leeds or Leicester try to keep it tight and go for a late winner; the fans will want to see all out attack.
