So as I read it, the best set of results Sat would be...

Chelsea vs Everton in the early kick off - who cares, doesn't affect us

Arsenal tonking Sunderland bringing their goal diff closer to ours (currently 7 goals better off with a game in hand and just a point behind)

Cardiff vs Hull - I think an away win would benefit us the best here; Hull would then be 5 points ahead of us, but it's better than Cardiff levelling with us and only being the odd goal worse off

Man City tonking Stoke keeping them just 2 points above us and bringing their goal diff closer to ours (currently 6 better off)

West Brom vs Fulham - I think a draw here would be best; though it'd mean WBA drawing level with us on points and therefore leapfrogging us with their superior goal diff (currently 12 better), I think that's better than them going 2 points ahead of us or Fulham closing the gap to safety and being only 2 points away from us

West Ham losing at home to Southampton keeping them 3 points above us - though with them, Swansea & Villa all on the same points with superior gd's to ours, the best we can rise to on Sun is 13th (below Villa), but at least it'd keep them in touch

Palace tonked at home to Man U in the evening kick off, keeping them just a point above us with a game in hand and possibly making their gd worse than ours (currently only 4 better off)

Then in the earlier Sun games (both half one ko's):

Liverpool tonking Swansea...

...and Newcastle beating Villa to keep them both in touch the same as West Ham

Can see most of that being the likely outcomes too, though it never works out as simple as that, of course...
OTBC!
