Aston Villa (A) 2-1 W
Watford (A) 3-1 W
Wolves (H) 1-0 W

Great chance to make it ten when you look at our next three fixtures.

Newcastle (A)
Leicester (H)
Brentford (A)

And in those 7 games: 20 goals scored & only 3 conceded.
 
I think 85-90 will win it but I can see us getting 95+.

I think we're at the beginning of a long winning streak.
 
Looking at our current trajectory , and an expectation of 47pts after 19 games , any team thinking of taking our title away will need a minimum of 95pts , which counts Chelski out , the Dippers will also have to come to the Etihad and beat us , and that isnt happening any time soon. Our last eight games against the Dipshits reads W3 D4 L1 ,so their apparent superiority in face to face fixtures actually is a load of horsehit.

The table is pretty misleading in that it only covers the total time between three games rather than the more detailed big picture. We play Sunday - Wednesday - Saturday so not so different from countless other weeks during the season. Liverpool play Sunday - Tuesday - Sunday so an extra day overall but having to deal with the dreaded 48 hours between games that managers and sports scientists hate. I’d much rather have our schedule than theirs.

May all be moot in a few days from now of course if the covid situation stays on its current trajectory.
 
FiveThirtyEight have this figure at 86 points to win the league now.

They're predicting we'll get 91 and that our chances of winning the league are at 69%

Liverpool will finish on 85 points with a 26% chance of winning the league.

Chelsea will finish on 78 points with a 5% chance of winning the league.


They also have us as favourites to win the Champions League with a 43% chance of reaching the final and a 26% chance of winning it.

Yes but they play the early game on the Sunday then the late game on the Tuesday whereas other teams hwo play Sunday/Tuesday get less rest
 
1 more than the Bitter Dippers would be fine for me, in fact winning it on goal difference would be even better but not much good for my heart rate.
