In Klopp I'm a believer.

Chelsea just about home and dry now (thankfully as are we) so that leaves 9 teams with a chance to go down. Which 3 will it be?

I’ve started the vote off based on looking at all remaining fixtures.

Everton
Forest
Southampton
 
I think Leicester will stay up for 2 reasons, firstly they score alot more goals than the teams around them which gives them a better goal difference and a better chance of nicking something from a close game. The second reason is they probably have the easiest run in. Games against Everton, Wolves, Leeds and West Ham, three of those fixture are at home. They should get enough points from those 4 games to go above Forest and Everton.
 
Leicester have a much easier run in than Everton ... inc. a home game against them (if Leicester win it's done and dusted, if Everton win it'll still be close between them). I can see 5 games they could get points in and only 2 for Everton.
 
This belongs here, so...

As for the bottom struggle, Leicester, to my surprise, showed some fight in the second half against City.
They will surely need it, and need results against Wolves, Fulham and Everton.

Southampton seem lost, as they couldn't get anything going at home against Palace.

Forest I haven't seen in a while, but it seems a tough ask.
They will go down, as it is also a freshly assembled team who will not yet be that strong in team spirit.

Everton could just about make it, and it might come down to the two last games for them.
So, Southampton, Forest and Leicester to go down I think.
 
The thing with Everton is by most seasons you'd think they need 9-12 points to stay up. Look at their remaining fixtures, there aren't alot of points in there for them. The only way they survive is via an incredibly low points total for 17th
 
Soton, Forest, Everton. I think Leicester saves themselves given their run in, and that they are playing Everton at home.

Soton look lost, Forest have the worst run in and Everton could end up going down in they lose that game to Leicester.
 
I've looked at the fixtures and forest have as rough a run as Everton. Leicester have a lot to do to get themselves out. Between Leicester and Everton I think it's leicester oing down
 
2/3 of Everton's points have been won at home.
They've only won away once all season (at Southampton).
They've got 3 home games left, 2 of which are City and Newcastle.
They have Neal Maupay up front.
Of course they're not going down, but they've got a hell of a mountain to climb.
 
It's mad how bad they are at the minute. Them and Leicester are much worse than the sum of their parts.
I don't get Leicester at all. Smashed Villa then smashed Spurs then lose to fucking .... don't get football sometimes.

I hope faith in their run in to get themselves out of it.

They lost to Rovers in the FA cup and followed that up by one point in the games against Southampton, Chelsea, Brentford, Palace, Villa, and Bournemouth. They lost both their relegation six pointers in those set of games. Their run in might be easier on paper, but their form has been horrendous. One win and one draw in the last 10 games which included those six teams mentioned above. I don't think any game is easy for them given their form. Not sure they can suddenly turn it around.
 
Dean Smith to be their salvation is what I'm hearing

You forgot to mention the new manager lift
 
I suppose if Everton do go down, they’ll finally release a DVD entertaining enough to be worth buying.
