For us to finish 7th, Forest would need to beat West Ham and Chelsea and we'd need to lose to Arsenal and Everton.

 

For that to be Europa Conference, Palace would need to win the FA Cup final.

 

It's not impossible of course, but given the form of all concerned, it seems unlikely.

 

If we beat Everton (or Arsenal) then it 99.9% doesn't matter what the others do, unless Villa went suspiciously goal crazy, so I assumed the person I was quoting had doubts of this by wanting Forest to win this weekend to keep them competitive heading into the Chelsea match. 

 

A draw in the final 2 matches would guarantee top 6 and at least Europa, but if we lose Arsenal, which I suspect we will, and that Everton match kind of mirrors the Leicester match of 2 years ago where we can't score, and then give the opponent a glorious chance out of nowhere, then at that stage we'd probably have hoped Forest dropped points at the earliest opportunity, but we'll of course know one part of the sequence before we and Forest both next play.

We are favourites regardless. 

 

We are going to Arsenal to keep it tight and try to nick one with carefully timed pressing and counters regardless. We'll settle for a draw regardless. And we'll go into Everton trying to win.
