Martinez convinced Everton can slip into top four

Everton boss Roberto Martinez feels they can still finish in the top four this season.

They are nine points behind Manchester City having played a game more, but Martinez has always insisted 71 points will take Everton into next season's Champions League and he believes one of their rivals will be vulnerable on the run-in.

"It would mean one of the top clubs having a major slip, yes, but I still think that could happen," said Martinez.

"Obviously, that's trying to look into a crystal ball and trying to guess the results between the top sides. But you've got Chelsea and Manchester United involved in the Champions League."
