Leeds look to be entering it in the worst form out of the teams, Norwich have the least defeats in recent games. Plus I think mentally 5th and 6th teams will be in a better place, so my prediction is Norwich to go up via the playoffs.
Going to be very strange supporting Leeds next weekend I've got a feeling Norwich are going to do it. Wouldn't be shocked to see a West Brom Norwich final.
Can’t see beyond Leeds or Southampton tbh, with Southampton probably edging it. I read somewhere that Norwich are the only ever team to ignore the convention of the winning team giving their 50% of the gate receipts to the loser. So I hope it’s not them the tight gits.
Leeeeeds or Southampton will win. People going with Norwich so far surprising me. Last time 6th place went up from this division was in 2010...and they aren't particularly strong
Southampton to beat Leeds 3-0 in the final, Leeds Leeds are falling apart again, Leeds Leeds are falling apart again.
At a festival in a field with zero signal the day of the playoff final so I won't find out the result till Monday afternoon.
I can't imagine any of the 4 sets of fans will be going into this particularly confident. Unfortunately I think it'll be a boring Leeds vs Saints final with Leeds winning.
Mental seeing a side rack up 90 points and not get autos... Be interesting to see how Leeds would fare financially if they don't go up.
Southampton beat us In both games so expecting the same again. Free hit for us with nothing to lose as we wasn't expected to be in here at the start of the season. Club has smashed expectations thanks to Carlos. Few stand out players especially kipre who won player of the season. Most fans would of been okay with an 8th place finish and a new owner. Wouldn't be the end of the world if we stay down but hopefully we some how sneak it. In the home game against Southampton we sat back and invited pressure. We need to be on the front foot against them this time around.
You’ve had a good season all things considered, I don’t think you’ll go up but you’ll be in a good position to do so next season because the 3 coming down aren’t that strong so it should be a hell of a lot closer.
I think it'll be Southampton. Leeds and Southampton are the best two teams but Leeds are in terrible form and mentally shot with the Leeds fans turning on them and an astronomical amount of pressure on them. Southampton aren't carrying the mental baggage of narrowly missing out on automatic promotion and don't carry the same supporter pressure and expectation as Leeds so I expect their quality to show through against West Brom who aren't very good. And once in the final I think they'll beat Norwich if it's them, and if it's Leeds I think Leeds will bottle it under the pressure.
I think west brom could edge it, they’ve nothing to lose whereas the others have slipped up quite considerably
I’m a lot happier to be playing West Brom than Norwich, I think Norwich had the measure of us in the games they played against this season and were unlucky to win at least one if not both games we played against them. I’m not going to make a prediction though as god knows what happens in the play offs, but my one major concern for us is every time the pressure has been on us we’ve bottled it, which doesn’t bode well for such a high pressure end to the season.
