Manchester United should feel confident of clinching a top-four spot this season after claiming a 2-0 win at Crystal Palace on Thursday, according to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
United sit level on points with Leicester City, who are currently fourth, but behind on goal difference. Chelsea are a point ahead of both teams with two teams left to play.
The visitors endured some nervy moments at Selhurst Park, with Palace having a goal ruled out for offside but the Norwegian is happy with his side's work.
"We know that the other teams will do their bit but we have to concentrate on ourselves, we took some time to get going today and Palace were on the front foot pressing us. When the play and interchange and movement came, it was nice to watch," he told BBC Sport.
"Their disallowed goal looked tight and you are hoping it is offside, we were lucky there.
"We need to be more clinical in finding that type of play, when they do they are good to watch. They are so good, strong and technical and put the defenders on the back foot.
"We have two games we need to win. The players should be confident, trust themselves and trust the way they play."
