"UEFA have awarded England an additional slot in next season's competition after finishing in the top three of the governing body's Respect Fair Play rankings.
"Currently, West Ham and Everton are best placed to profit from this wild card. So the team with the fewest names in the notebook of referee Kevin Friend will have taken a huge step towards qualifying even if they've lost the game 5-0!
"Instead of goal celebrations maybe the players have spent the week rehearsing elaborate choreographed moves to be unveiled on the avoidance of a yellow?!
"Mind you, that's assuming that the clubs WANT to be in the Europa League."

Think this match is a dead rubber? then think again.
Just three points separate West Ham in 10th and Everton in 11th. There is the battle to be in the top half of the table and more importantly a battle for a Europa League place.
That is because both teams are riding high in the Fair Play table so cards not goals could be the focus today at Upton Park.
