Tough to look beyond Leeds and Leicester joining Southampton. Both teams will need another 5/6 points from their remaining games to have any chance of catching Forest and Everton, who likewise will probably only need 1 more win (or 3 draws technically) to be safe.
I could see Leeds and Leicester getting 5/6 from their remaining fixtures at best, although they are tough games and could easily get less than 2.
Forest are probably the team any of them are most likely to catch. They are woeful away from home and Arsenal at home is a game I'd expect them to lose as well. Everton I can see them getting points from their final 2 fixtures, between 2-4 which will be enough.
If everyone got the maximum number of points I think they could get from their remaining fixtures, this would be the table:
Everton 36
Leicester 36
Leeds 35
Forest 34
Southampton 26
I can't see the above happening though.
