Probability — Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace beat Newcastle 2-1 in a comfortable result that confirms their secure mid-table standing, and they carry an unusual advantage into the final stretch — 7 remaining games versus most rivals' 6, courtesy of an outstanding Round 31 fixture still to be played. With 0% relegation risk and no European ambition, that extra game is a free swing, though it comes with a daunting assignment: a trip to face Manchester City in that rescheduled fixture, with City in full title-race mode.
