Playoffs ?

[prk166]

So what are the chances of the Saints making the playoffs?

The current spots are

Birmingham City GP 38 Pts 71
Preston North End GP 39 Pts 68
West Bromwich Albion GP 40 Pts 67
Wolverhampton Wanderers GP 40 Pts 66

Saints have played 40 and have 63 points. Same with Cardiff. Stoke's played 40 and are sitting at 61 points.

Saints have these games left

Sat, 7th @Luton
Mon, 9th Sunderland
Sat, 14th @ Birmingham
Sat, 21st Leeds
Sat, 28th @Norwich
Sun, 6th Southend

With how Sunderland's been playing, that game won't be easy. The same with traveling to Birmingham. 12 points from their last 6 would have Saints finishing at 75 points on the year. Last year that was enough for Crystal Palace to make the 4th play-offs spot. Would that be enough for Saints this year?

It's not impossible but it doesn't look good right now. The last 3 games are all very winnable but with a 4 point gap to make the Saints really need to win them all to have a chance.
