I'm just not that confident that this will happen, just simply because of where we are in the table. Assuming we win on Saturday and then play Stoke, we could be up to 11 points clear of Barnsley, should we beat Stoke, and I think (correct me if I'm wrong) be a minimum of 10 clear of Peterborough, unsure if they play in midweek, which seems a huge gap at this point in the season and would mean we would have secured 3 wins on the trot which is also unusual for a team in our position at this point in the season.
It's entirely possible that we could win our next 3 games (including Cardiff which would mean we'd have won 4 games) on the trot, but it just seems unlikely. Personally, I'd rather us beat Barnsley, lose against Stoke and beat Cardiff as potentially a realistic achievement for ourselves.
Peterbotough have 2 tough home games this week
Middlesborough on Saturday followed by Luton on Tuesday night.
Barnsley aren't playing as their postponed game is v Blackpool who are playing another rescheduled game v Preston next week.
Personally I see a draw on Saturday, one v Stoke and a win v Cardiff but anything is possible at this stage.
I see something similar, maybe a defeat against Stoke in the week as we don't tend to do that well against them but a win against Cardiff. Possibly vice-versa, win vs Stoke and lose vs Cardiff. It's important that we don't lose on Saturday though, a win would be so big.
Yep, 4 or 5 points next week will be fine as long as the defeat isn't on Saturday. If we lose on Saturday, that is still OK but would really put pressure on taking 6 points from the 2 home games.
