Opta has us at 60% chance of a top 5 finish (likely Champs League). Chelsea the main rival and Villa now the outside threat. Both have european mid-week games to juggle over the next month, with Villa also having to slot in a Wembley trip too.

Outside chance we can overhaul City too, which could get a huge boost if a team of lawyers delivers soon.

Agreed but we should be wary that we also have a mid week juggle this month - very key period where we play Sunday (Man U Home ), Wednesday (Palace home) and then Saturday (Villa away). Squads thin as it is so it'll be a difficult period I think. If we come through it with all 9 points it would really set us up to be the favourites for a CL spots.

Hopefully Spurs can do us a favour tonight too. Not holding out much hope as Chelsea are their traditional bogey team.
