One club, the fifth biggest in the league if ranked by stadium capacity, is delighted just to have avoided relegation; the other, recently promoted and 18th in the same rankings, is so disappointed to have spent the season in mid-table that they have just disposed of their manager. Sunderland will come 17th whatever happens but go into the gameare on a wave of survivalist euphoria; Watford could finish as low as 16th or as high as 11th, a difference of £6,180,415 in “merit payments”, but motivation may still be an issue.
