Too many points on offer and with the amount of factors that go into how a football match pans out, I take most statistics and historical games with a large pinch of salt.

Throw an "inexperienced" official in the mix and form, tactics and quality can quickly become null and void.
A lick of paint on a goalpost can mean the difference between success and failure, ask Harry Kane.

That is not to say that these types of post aren't interesting, good research and analysis by the way Eric.

I tend to agree with Ninian that it might well go down to the last game as far as automatic for us is concerned and, if it is to be decided on goal difference, we will probably lose out judging by the amount of recent wins by the odd goal.
I think I might take a last game decider right now mind you, as I suspect would many others.
I've done the predictor a load of times over different days and not been too kind with our results and I've always (bar one) had us by a point even after losing on the last day.

Not that my scientific research means a thing mind...

Just gonna enjoy the ride myself.
