The reason why I think Shirin is in trouble is because of how grating she and Max appear to be to the other members of their tribe. Last week we saw Tyler and Joaquin bonding over the fact that Shirin's (and Max's) nakedness were making them uncomfortable. Then we see in the trailer that Carolyn does not seem too happy with Shirin's constant need to be one with "nature". This can drive Carolyn, Tyler, and Joaquin together. On top of that, she is the weakest in competitions, so they might drop her off if they lose immunity.
Sure Mike's boot would not be a shocker but we've seen a lot of friction from Day 1 that has been caused by Mike/Dan. I cannot see anyone getting the boot from that tribe before Mike and/or Dan. The simple fact that there is a likely majority of Kelly, Boston Rod, Lindsey, and Sierra, who happen to be against Dan/Mike is not a good sign. He is making himself an outcast and that's never a good thing. Similarly, Nina is doing the same thing on the No Collar tribe.
In a game where people want to assimilate and stick out as little as possible, these three are doing a poor job.

I really think this week is between White Collar and Blue Collar in terms of who loses, therefore between Shirin and Mike.

I understand your reasoning, but I think Shirin has enough bonds and is unassuming enough to not be targeted if White Collar loses again. I think Joaquin or Max may be on the hot seat from that tribe soon, since Joaquin doesn't seem to have an alliance and people (like Tyler) aren't being fooled by Max's shenanigans. I'm pretty sure they all know Max is really smart and is a Survivor professor. So even said in her exit interview that Max is not one to be trusted. He could easily stick around for a while though, I just think people are on to him.
I don't see Blue Collar going to tribal pre-swap unless they really screw up a challenge on some sort of fluke or they throw the challenge. I think despite their fractions, they're still stronger than the other tribes. We probably won't see their issues come to a head until the tribe swap. But there definitely seems to be an impending battle between Mike/Dan and Rodney/Lindsey, assuming Mike and Dan are still on good terms and Rodney still has the three women on lock.
No Collar seems like the weakest tribe right now. I think they'd be lucky to not go to tribal again before the swap. They booted one of their stronger challenge competitors last week and they still have Nina to handle. I'd guess Nina's time will be up soon, unless there's a major shake-up in their power rankings.

I hear what you're saying but if it ever does come down to Max versus Joaquin, then Joaquin is probably the one who is going to get the boot. I say this because in So's exist interview, like you said, she talked about how she was trying to tell people in her tribe to trust Joaquin (presumably over Max) and she seems to have this bitterness towards Max which made me think that he got to stay longer than she would have liked.
On top of that, @Gasp, told us about how Joaquin insinuated that he didn't really make it that far, so I would assume he got out pre-merge before Max.
Sure Tyler does not seem to buy into Max's shenanigans but Tyler also values the strength of the team, from that I would assume that he would want to get rid of Shirin over anybody else - solely based on strengths and weaknesses. Joaquin would probably do anything to save his skin, so he would vote Shirin. Carolyn, on one hand, seems to have a tight relationship with Shirin but by the looks of last week's episode and this week's preview, she is kinda over Shirin's shenanigans. As for Max, I can totally see him backstabbing Shirin if he thought he needed to.
You're right about the Blue Collar being the strongest. That's also the reason why I thought they might throw the challenge just to get rid of Mike instead of actually lose it. Now that I say that, I can totally imagine Lindsey or Boston Rod bringing that up as a potential way of getting rid of the main source of conflict within the tribe.
No Collar is pretty obvious, I agree. If they lose, Nina is definitely going home. Unless they decide to boot Will instead to but I think he might be spared this time.

You could make a case as to why anyone on White Collar (except maybe Tyler) could be booted if they lose again; I just hope it's not Shirin. They seem pretty unpredictable to me a la the Brains tribe from Cagayan.
