ExiledAjax Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 You can make an argument for any result in the Sheff Utd v Boro game. I'd agree a draw is probably the best but all results benefit us in some way. Leeds v Swansea won't impact us massively. Swansea aren't catching us and if Leeds run away with it then so be it, we'll just nip 2nd spot from Norwich instead. It's that Derby v Ipswich game where we could really do with Ipswich causing an upset. The odds will be against them but stranger things have happened.

daored Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Difficult to see beyond a comprehensive Derby victory tonight Sheffield United will beat Boro, can see Leeds dropping points tonight. I suspect we might drop to sixth tonight with Derby above us on goal difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 I think Derby will go above us tonight. Especially with Sears being out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Only thing is its at Ipswich not Derby so slimmest chance they may get a draw. Any result from the Shef/Boro game can work for us. I wouldn't mind a Leeds win so much that they potentially kill off Swansea a bit more, would be 9 points behind us having played a game more. Hopefully Brentford get one over Smith and do the same to Villa. Preston hopefully can get something from Norwich as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't mind reducing the amount in the chasing pack, less teams in the hunt more chance of top 6. Suppose you could say its a bit defeatist but we've closed the gap on Leeds so much since the start of our run that I don't think 1 game would kill off our chances of catching them.

JamesBCFC Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Derby are performing above themselves. Think they will win, won't be by 3 or 4. Wouldn't be surprised if it was a draw tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roe Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Not that it makes a huge difference but one positive tonight is that all the teams we don't really want to win are away from home (apart from Leeds). Surely they won't all win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingswoodactor Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 A four fold on Derby, Norwich, Leeds and Sheffield Utd is 14/1 on Sky Bet.

With Leeds five points ahead and having to come play us at home and West Brom in quick succession, we have to be looking for them to drop points the form we are in. Looking at the chasing pack is a defeatists mentality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitchurch1966 Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Can't see Boro winning at Sheff Utd which they have to do if they are going to jump over us, also no mean feat to score 3 goals against anyone in this division without reply, who would have thought that every game except ours would have been a draw last night, Rotherham scoring 2 at another form team, Hull, I think we'll still be 5th tomorrow.
