We aren't strong favourites at all. Stop making things up.

51 to play for - 31, 61 in total - not sure where that gets you from previous seasons!

Going unbeaten at home isn't beyond the realms of possibility ( I know, it is very unlikely), but Liverpool and Chelsea still have to come here as do Man Utd.
Palace are dangerous and will be desperate to get that embarrassing cup exit out of their system. However, the uncertainty over the manager, Guehi and Mateta ( Juve poised to make offer allegedly) can't be helping morale. Can see us getting us getting another 18 points at SoL , so that's 48 points.
Away from home, we've done pretty well against the top teams bar the two Mancs, but I 100pc expect us to lose at Arsenal.
The remaining aways we have WHU, Wolves, Leeds, Villa, skunks, Bournemouth and Everton. Can we get 12 from those games to secure Uefa or Conference league ?
AV will obvly be a big ask the form they are in, but we got a draw vs them with ten men, so it's not a write off like Arsenal is ( we will give the Gunners a game but like most teams that have gone there this year, we will likely lose).
Bournemouth without Semenyo are beatable, as are WHU, Wolves and Everton ( esp as Everton are penultimate game and will be on the beach).
Leeds at ER is a tough place to go and they play on the front foot from the off so I'd be over the moon with a point.
The skunks ? Obviously, the fixture list for them up until we play them mid March is punishing esp' if they get in to the last 16 phase of the CL which they will, so much depends on who they have fit and available on the day. If they're at full strength, then it's as tough an ask to get something there as the AV game, plus they will be desperate for revenge.
I think we will get 11 from those games, total 59, which could be enough to get us in to Europe.
 
If we don’t sign anyone this window I’d say 44-47 points.

Bring in two or three good additions - 50-54 points
 
Not sure on points total but if you look at the table now realistically which teams below us do you think finish above us? At most I see three teams that could improve and finish above us, Brighton, Spurs and Bournemouth. I will be very surprised if we finish outside the top 12 especially with our home form being so good.

As long as we stay relatively injury free I think we’ll be close. Surely the more these players play together the better they will get
