The numbers suggest they will be joined by Stoke, Bristol City and Millwall - none of whom made the play-offs last term - with Leeds just outside in seventh. Unlike the top of the table, the relegation battle is not expected to go to the wire. Newly promoted Plymouth are set to finish bottom, according to the supercomputer, with Hull and Cardiff joining them with a week to go. Who are you backing in the Championship this season?
