West Ham United boss Gianfranco Zola reckons 37 points will see them safe from the drop.

Zola faces his old club Chelsea today.

He said: "I think 37 points should make it but some people say less. I want to be sure and 37 would be a good target for us. Everyone is fighting for their lives, so there will be surprise results.

"I think we have enough quality. We are a good team but have to improve, especially our consistency.

"If the other sides are better than us, fine. But we'll fight to the end."

The Italian, still idolised by Blues fans, added: "It would be fantastic for me to beat them. I think it would be a big boost if we could achieve that. It would be great.

"They have great players but, like everybody, also have some faults. It is down to us to exploit them."
