I got Norwich, Aston Villa, and Watford.

Norwich seems like an obvious answer so I won’t talk about it.

Aston Villa easily has the talent to stay but they don’t have the consistency.

Watford I don’t think has the attacking talent to stay or the depth to compete.

Norwich is the given.

For the other two I'll say:
Aston Villa because they have a real tough stretch of games coming up while they're trying to catch up.
West Ham because it would be absolutely hilarious.

Norwich is the easy one. It will be interesting to see what happens to their stronger players upon relegation. Could be a good spot to go for some bargains.

Bournemouth. I think their time in the prem is over which is unfortunate as I really respect what Howe has done.

For the third team, it was a toss up between Aston Villa and Watford. Villa has the tougher schedule so I went with them.

I chose Norwich, Bournemouth and Watford. Norwich being the only team that is relegationbound. It can go either way with 19th and 18th. I think all the teams that are included has pretty tough schedule. It probably comes down to which teams handling playing in front of the empty seats best. Some teams will see it as a relief from all the pressure a crowded and demanding stadium can mean while others need that extra push to perform their very best. It will be a battle itself.

Norwich, Villa, and Bournemouth I think. I really hope Bournemouth can hang on though - if they go down I don't think they'll ever come back
