from William Hill:
(after April 7 matches)

Sunderland: 11/8
Derby: 7/4
Birmingham: 21/10
Preston: 80/1
West Brom: 100/1
Southampton: 150/1
Wolverhampton: 200/1

QPR had a massive week, with two wins now pulling the West Londoners 5 points clear of the drop zone. Leeds quieted their naysayers (for now), by moving out of the relegation positions with a 2-1 victory over Plymouth Saturday at Elland Road.

While Birmingham suffered a devastating home loss to Burnley on Saturday, the Blues still have a valuable game in hand over all clubs near the top of the table. Stoke is now a strong contender for a Playoff spot after defeating West Brom at The Hawthorns 3-1.
