Actually, I think the Devils' fixtures are trickier than the Blues'. We have 3 away matches - and one of them is at Stamford Bridge. Blues' on the other hand, have 3 matches at home. Both teams have a match against a team looking to secure UEFA Cup places next week, but MU's match is away. Both teams have a local derby match away the following match, but in recent years we have seen how unpredictable Manchester derbies can be, with the Devils losing more of those than one would expect of them. Then comes the 'title decider' as the press have dubbed it, and that match is at Stamford Bridge, again not in the Devils' favour. Blues have their final match against a UEFA Cup contender, but the Devils have a match against a team possibly needing to win the match for premiership survival - and we have already lost to them once this season. And we should remember how we lost the title to Blackburn playing against this very team....
If the Devils can pull it off this season, they should be damn proud of themselves.

On current form, it doesn't look too likely... Hopefully the fact that it's a derby throws all form books out the window...
