They're just going on form, Hefty. That can change at any given moment, especially at this stage of the season. If you click on the link at the bottom and go back 3 games, they had Barnsley finishing 2nd with clear distance to Sunderland in 3rd.
Our recent performances are exceeding the models projections for us in those matches, Barnsley apparently not. Better like this than the other way around. They have a data set of 550,000 matches dating back to 1888, and some of it is on github.
When I found out the DB admin at work is 3 years older than me, I jokingly chided him for running with the crowd that picked on the underclassmen back at school. He very seriously replied, "well - you deserved it."
I predict automatic promotion, a rather large boner when it happens, and our lass walking knock-need for a week.
Never been one for stats when it comes to football.. I'm also not even thinking beyond the vital game on Tuesday night..
I agree with the gent above on stats ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ however as the OP has posted its prediction assuming we went up who would you want to come up with us AND via the play offs? Personally I couldnt give a flying one but I suppose Barnsley is the easiest for away fans.
