Birmingham - Middlesbrough looks a biggie. Draw in that one would prob suit us best no?

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Don't see Saints or Reading having problems really, but WH/Leeds could be interesting. Boro/B'ham could be a good one too.

 

[spongy]

I can't see Southampton or Reading losing, let's hope west ham and borough draw, don't want them to lose as Birmingham and Leeds will close the gap to us or overtake if we don't get 3 points today, it's so tight for playoffs, I'm loving this league.

 

[Beach Hut]

I can see dirty Leeds winning today as they are in good form.

Will we be in an play-off position at 5 o'clock tonight ?

Tough one to call. You could also argue that it would be beneficial if we win, Middlesbrough and West Ham. Then three teams below us all lose 3 points on us.

It's nervy stuff
