Last 8 Games

Pavoren007

I thought we would need 3 wins and a draw or two max going into the last 9. Such has been the form of most of the sides in the bottom 8, I think 4 wins and a draw (in total from 9) should be just about enough with so many having to play one another.

With 2 from 9 played, I think that Huddersfield, Hull and Barnsley will drop, Luton will swerve it too.

Those are my wildly inaccurate predictions 

While it would be great to have 3 teams surrender meekly, I think Luton and Barnsley will do a LOT better than your forecast

This is shaping up to be one of those seasons where unfortunately no team has their fate entirely in their own hands and it is going to be who gets the best form/luck of the draw relative to everyone else. Everyone has to play like their survival depends on it, because it probably does. 
Two of the three relegation places probably will be resolved before the very last day but the final spot I can definitely see being between two or three teams and down to the wire. Hopefully we won't be one of those but I'm not counting on anything until survival is mathematic fact.

I would love to see Huddersfield and Stoke go down, after they both had a poor start of the season and then the pair of them found some form and thought they were going to finish high up the table. Now they have started this mini season the way they started the main season and are right back in it. Hull or boro to take the third spot.

Would be quite something if all 3 of last season's promoted teams survived in the end.

Only 7 losses out of 24 games. 4 of those against relegation rivals. Madness

That result makes me think it's not going to be our year.

I think op is saying that out of all the games played by the bottom 8 teams only 7 have been losses, with 4 being 6-pointers. Not something you would expect at the back end of a season.

The 8 teams above have lost a total of 7 games out of 24 played since lockdown. 4 of those were played against relegation rivals - the form of these teams is mad.
