The Run-In : Remaining Fixtures for Play-Off Contenders

Given that only 5th and 6th place are seriously up for grabs. Below is a list of the likely contenders for those places together with their run-in fixtures.

Alongside each of the teams' opponents I've listed their current league position. On the basis that it is more difficult to win against a team higher in the league than a team lower in the league, the sum of all opponents' league positions gives some sort of indication of the difficulty of their run-in.

Putting these teams in order of order of "easiest" to "more difficult" of run-in gives

Brentford 75
Preston 73
Bristol City 70
Derby 59
Sheff Utd 52
Boro 43
Millwall 43


Of course, some mid-table teams may be "easier" fixtures at this stage of the season than playing relegation candidates. However, the point is that it's not over yet.
