Like have already said get to 86pts & we will / should be up. If 2 teams get higher & we come 3rd then hats off to them
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sheff Utd "only" need 5 wins from 9 to get to 86. Their win rate to date shows they are capable of that. Tough run as do we may mean you are correct though.
I just get the feeling at the moment the top 3 are in their own bubble, feeding off each others results We go 5 ahead today and that could change.
Thats 55% win rate & atm their are running at 56% win rate
1 gimme (Ipswich home)
2 away yorkshire derbies (Leeds and Hull)
1 home game against a fighter for survival (Millwall)
3 tricky away fixtures (PNE, Brum & Stoke)
2 home games against playoff potentials (Bristol C & Forest)
Nice mixture and we ourselves have Millwall, PNE and Brum.

Wow That's some detail to a game of football. Does not take account of human error which is mostly the game in a nutshell.
It is all in our own hands, win today & we will be boyant
Sir K
Norwich will be happy whatever the Leeds result is today.
A draw means 2 dropped points for them both. A win for Leeds puts Sheff U further away from Norwich.
A win for Sheff U knocks Leeds back from them.
BUT Rotherham could beat Norwich
Just hope they can grind out a result for us
I remember the dreaded
"Leeds were relegated during the 2003–04 season."
We have been waiting since then to recover our position in the top flight of English Football. I live in hope that this season will bring this painful era to an end.
I would fear for the future seasons if we do not make it this year.
MOT
Same Millwall home, Birmingham and Preston away
Leeds- Sheff Weds home, Wigan home, Brentford away, Villa home and Ipswich away.
Sheff Utd- Bristol home, Forest home, Hull away, Ipswich home and stoke away.
In order of difficulty Leeds' 5 "different" fixtures
Brentford away 4th best home in league
Villa home- In great form. Currently 8th away and a positive gd.
Sheff Weds home- Unbeaten in 10 and 10th in the away table.
Ipswich away- Joint worst home form in league, only 2 wins all season. Only lost 7 though!
Wigan home- Terrible away with just 6 pts all season.
In order of difficulty Blades' 5 "different" fixtures
Hull away- Hull not lost at home since November. 8th in home table 4 pts behind Brentford.
Stoke away- 14th in home table, lost 6 home games.
Bristol home- City with the 6th best away record.
Forest home- Forest the draw specialists away with 11 draws out of 19 which sees them 12th in the away table.
Ipswich home- Ipswich just 2 pts better than Wigan on the away table.
The actual difficulty will of course depend a lot on circumstances.
They go to Stoke on the last day. If they are in top 2 going into that you'd be surprised if they messed it up given what would be at stake for each club.
Absolute killer to lose that today
Going through each of the top four's remaining matches, this is my points tally:
Norwich 16pts = 94pts
Sheff Utd 16pts = 90pts
Leeds Utd 16pts = 89pts
West Brom 14pts = 81pts
Also the top two's superior goal average in effect gives them another point.
Tables updated as of Sunday morning
Injuries
Table updated after the terrific Saturday comeback.
Thanks for all the stats Penshaw! I've not said much about them over the season, but I've been very grateful that you've been posting them!

Although I accept that this is only one of the possible outcomes based on form.

Correct Pablo. The 2 preds are distinct for each team. It just assumes the form pts per game projected for the last 4 games.
My guess is 9 pts would be a good return for any of the teams in the current top 8. I expect GD might come in to play so lets hammer Wigan and Ipswich (if needed)
