The main focus in the top-flight is on the bottom of the Premier League this afternoon.

Two of the sides in the relegation places meet as Reading are at home to Aston Villa.

Villa have the worst goal difference in the Premier League but have the same number of points as 17th placed Wigan, with Reading one point further back.

Southampton, who are three points clear of the drop zone, go to Norwich who sit 13th, while bottom club QPR welcome 14th-placed Sunderland. Harry Redknapp's side are now just four points from safety and he has cited 37 points as the magic number come May. However QPR are only on 20 points with 10 games to go.

The other match features two teams that are virtually safe in upper mid-table as West Brom host Swansea at the Hawthorns.
