WANDERERS have seven games still to play, but how does their run-in compare to their play-off rivals?

The Whites will be aiming to finish the season strongly and keep their slim hopes of finishing in the top six alive.

However, there are still several sides battling for a place in the play-offs heading into the final stages of the campaign.

The Bolton News has complied a list of each side’s remaining fixtures and a prediction for how they will fare in the coming weeks.

The predictions are based on football statistics website FiveThirtyEight’s predicted league table, which is calculated using a wide range of data from the season so far.
