Business end of the Premier League season is an understatement at this point - the irons are well and truly right in the middle of the fire.
There’s just four games left for some and yet nothing remains a certainty.
Manchester City lead the way at the top of the league by a solitary point with Liverpool refusing to give them any breathing room. Who will falter first? Will anyone?
And at the other end of the table, nobody has the dreaded ‘R’ next to their name yet.
Aston Villa could almost certainly condemn former boss Dean Smith and his Norwich City side to relegation next weekend if they are to pick up three points in their clash but it’s the fight for 17th place that is causing all the intrigue.
Burnley have picked up form since parting company with Sean Dyche and are leaving Everton of all teams staring the Championship in the barrel.
It’s going to be some end to the season though maybe not for fans of some of those teams mentioned.
Here’s how the data experts have the Premier League table finishing up come May 22.
