Surprised no one else has mentioned City. I also think they’ll get relegated, probably with Southampton and either Everton or Leicester
My first thought was City and Leicester from points deductions plus one other out of Southampton, Ipswich and Everton.

Agree
Southampton are the only team that is doomed. I just don't see anything in their squad that gives them a chance of getting more than about 20 points.

Leicester are better than Southampton but I'd still back them to go down. They appear weaker than when they went down two years ago.

I'm fairly confident Ipswich will stay up. I think they have a good manager and have bought well. It's between Everton and Brentford for the third place, I'll go with Brentford to drop.
Agree with the vast majority of this but would pick Everton rather than Brentford

Southampton will be down by Christmas. I think they could genuinely threaten Derby's worst ever Premier league points total.

Leicester are better but still not good enough to stay up.

Depending on points deductions, the third spot imo will be between Man City, Everton, Ipswich and Wolves.

Working on the basis that City will find a way to avoid the charges it is difficult to see Leicester and Southampton staying up. After that there are few candidates for the final place. Everton look rocky after today's capitulation. Ipswich and Wolves seem to me to have enough about them. The rest I think will be fine.
