[Albion] The Championship this midweek 3/11

[Bozza]

It seems likely that anything other than an Albion win at Hillsborough, something that has never happened, will be required to keep us in top spot in what is a full round of fixtures on Tuesday night.

Birmingham v Blackburn
Brentford v Hull
Bristol City v Wolves
Burnley v Fulham
Derby v QPR
Ipswich v Bolton
Leeds v Cardiff
Middlesbrough v Rotherham
MK Dons v Charlton
Preston v Nottm Forest
Reading v Huddersfield
Sheff Wed v Brighton

I'll go with a sneaky 1-0 win...top spot retained!

 

[Bozza]

There are some decent unbeaten runs in the division currently...

Albion - 14
Derby - 9
Hull, Sheff Wed - 8
Cardiff - 6
Burnley, Fulham - 5
Brentford, Preston - 4

 

[Everest]

We may never have won there before, but in the league we've avoided defeat more than not.

Would be a hell of a performance to get 3 points at Wednesday. Could happen, but would be happy with a draw, which will see us off the top sadly.

TBH, apart from Boro, the other teams around have not got nailed on wins. Could be a few upsets.

 

[BensGrandad]

I think the most likely to overtake us is Middlesbro as I think there is a possibility the others could all draw and drop points.

 

[Ernest]

It would be nice if we were part of a little 2/3 team breakaway at the top like when Burnley and Leicester went up

Sneaky 1 nil win will do thankyou very much.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

I am loving the fact Hull play Middlesbrough next Saturday, so even if we lose a little ground on Tuesday, we've a great chance to claw it back against one or both of these a few days later.

But anyway, I sense the stars are lining up for a historic victory at Hilsborough on Tuesday.

If any albion team ever does it, it will be this one.

 

[Mackenzie]

Fulham are looking like a proper team at the moment, I can see them beating Burnley.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Best of luck to Rotherham, Fulham, QPR and Brentford tonight - try and get at least a point each.

And also to Forest on Friday night against Derby.

 

[perseus]

The first result after Albion, I will look for after an Albion win will be Derby as they can knock up off top spot before Saturday even if we win. Unless we win by 7-0 or more!

But Derby might put five past QPR and then we will have to win by a lot more. It may very well be the best we can expect is going into Saturday's match trying ot get top spot back!

 

[Simster]

[MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION], Hull and Burnley are FAR from guaranteed wins, so a draw could easily keep us top.

I wouldn't be terribly sad if we dropped from top spot anyway. But it's all academic as I predict a splendid 3-0 Albion victory.

Only likely if we lose. A draw makes it impossible.

 

[perseus]

What would be fraught would be going into the last match of the season with the points difference and goal difference as now. At least we would make the play-offs.

Reading levelled

Gray two goals for Burnley. Thats what a 9 million pound striker does in the championship.

As Sir Warren A explained to us mortals. when we play quality like that we need to header the back of his nut early doors to let him know we're about. Only 2½ weeks away now.

But it isn't. That's what one (if you get the right one) 9 million pound striker does in the championship
