Jonathan Woodgate believes it will boil down to Leeds United or Burnley in a two-team battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League. The former Elland Road favourite reckons that Everton might now be out of the equation, despite only being a point above Jesse Marsch's men and the Clarets.
But the Toffees have played one fixture fewer than both of their rivals and, while Leeds entertain third-placed Chelsea tomorrow night, Frank Lampard's team will travel to an already-relegated Watford outfit following impressive back-to-back triumphs over Chelsea and Leicester. When asked whether he felt the club he played for more than 100 times in the Premier League would beat the drop, Woodgate told BritishGambler.co.uk: "I hope they do!
"It’s hard to judge. Everton have been brilliant the last few games, beating Chelsea at home and beating Leicester away and the victory against Man United as well – I was looking at their away form and thinking they hadn’t won since Brighton on August 28 – six points away from home since before Leicester, and I think they’ll be OK now as they’ve got a couple of home games and I think they’ll pick up six points from their two home games.
