Will Everton stay up?

 


The Premier League (currently) football (soccer) club Everton dipped down into the relegation zone (the bottom 3 teams of the league standings, which are 'dropped' to the next tier down, and the three top teams are brought up), but after a 2-1 win over Leicester City, they are (currently) not in the bottom 3.

Can they stay up, or are they going down?

May 11, they play Watford, which has officially been relegated.  Their final three games are against Brentford, Crystal Palace, and finally Arsenal.  Brentford and CP are in the middle of the standings, so those games are probably pivotal.  The last game, against Arsenal, may be against a team that needs a win to stay in the top 4, which are the teams that get to play in the UEFA's Champions League the next season.  So that one might be tough.

I hope they stay up.  But you can't always get what you want.
