High-flying Barnsley have given themselves an excellent chance of securing a top-six finish, and it will be fascinating to see whether Valerin Ismael's side can keep up their fine form and secure a play-off place. Here's how the latest data algorithm (via FiveThirtyEight) has predicted the final Championship table will look at the end of the season:
5. 20th: Derby County
Points total: 51. 'Wayne Rooney's Derby County', as they are destined to be known until the ex-England and Man Utd star's reign comes to a close, survive the drop, picking up a further eleven points. Photo: Gareth Copley
6. 19th: Rotherham United
Points total: 51. The Supercomputer likes a bit of the Saddlers, it seems. Paul Warne's side have been tipped to make good use of their glut of games in hand, and power their way out of the relegation zone to safety. Photo: Alex Livesey
7. 18th: Huddersfield Town
Points total: 52. The Terriers kept the faith with Carlos Corberan, and it's been paid off with an improved run of form of late. They manage to finish eight point clear of the relegation zone. Photo: George Wood
8. 17th: Preston North End
Points total: 52. Preston were plummeting down the table prior to Alex Neil's exit, and the Lilywhites will be hoping a change of manager will see them pick up much-needed points. The simulation sees them comfortably secure safety. Photo: Alex Livesey
