We'll be on 69 points and have a goal difference of at least +19.
In that scenario to NOT make the play-offs the either Bolton or Forest would almost certainly have to get 7 points from their last 3 matches.
Bolton - M'boro (H) Cardiff (A) Blackpool (H). I'm seeing 6 points there, tops.
Forest - Barnsley (H) Millwall (A) Leicester (H). I'm seeing 7 points there, tops.
But, if Forest do beat Leicester (now on 64 points) then for us to miss out Leicester would have to beat both Palace (A) and Watford (H).
And even if Leicester win both those matches then for us to miss out Palace will need at least 4 points from Blackburn (A), Millwall (A) and Peterborough (H).
These are the odds on us making the play-offs after tonight's matches: BetVictor 1/6, Stan James 2/7, BetFair 3/14.
