Who has the tougher run in ?

Luton will be ok, got the feel good factor back with the architect of their double promotion winning side back. Going to be tight, but I think there will be three below us taking into account Wigan being deducted points. I could actually see a scenario where we didn't get anymore points and survived by the skin of our teeth!
 
Just for fun I added up the table position of each team played, so the higher the end sum the easier the run in. Barnsley play 1st, 5th and 3rd so have by far the worst run in:

Boro: 13 + 6 + 14 = 33
Stoke: 11 + 3 + 5 = 19
Hull: 15 + 23 + 6 = 44
Hudds: 14 + 2 + 9 = 25
Barnsely: 1 + 5 + 3 = 9
Luton: 16 + 22 + 12 = 50

In order of easiest to hardest it is then:

Luton
Hull
Boro
Hudds
Stoke
Barnsley
 
Looking at who can catch us, I don't think Barnsley will, fixtures are too difficult.

Luton, after their win against Huddersfield now can, but that would include a win against Hull which means Hull's chances of catching us are reduced.

Wigan is an interesting one, should they beat Hull and Charlton in their next two games, which they will be favourites to do, might see them having just about enough points to stay up.

So if Luton and Wigan are to stay up, it's Barnsley , Hull and one other.

Exciting end to the season but one more win is all Boro need, even two points might do it.

Form is out of the window for me. Away teams seem to have an advantage perversely.

its all about attitude and focus on the day. Some teams are on the beach others like Reading are beating teams at the bottom. They did us a favour this week beating both Luton and Charlton and taking 2 points off Huddersfield. We have them next.

QPR have been on the beach & they beat us convincingly, their only points since lockdown was against us
 
Barnsley toughest so think they are doomed,
Hull next hardest as think Luton might beat QPR, then hull Luton is critical
Stoke then us for hardest run in.
Never mind last game of season being squeeky bum, i am seriously worried for us. we have to get one win
