Haven't seen Guthrum's excellent work lately so thought I'd produce three mini ones for the top four, given Hull now require a 10-point swing to catch the Boro and that ain't happenin'.
1) If teams match season-long home and away form across remaining home and away games:
Cov 95.5*
Boro 88.5
Wall 83
Town 82.5
*Rounding to 0.5 of a point, in recognition of how vitally earned every point is at this stage. 
2) if teams match recent* home and away form across remaining home and away games:
Cov 93
Boro 90
Wall 88.5
Town 85
*Always a bit arbitrary and prone to manipulation, this calculation is based on the past 6 home results and past 6 away results for each team, so roughly two months of football I'd wager. Quicker not to muck about with Gav's presets on the TWTD form tables!
3) Guthrum's* estimated table:
Cov 96
Boro 92
Town 87
Wall 87
*If I understand his formula correctly (for each team you add the points total from their last X results to their current total, with X = no. of games left to play. No distinction is made between home or away games in this table; it's pretty much what would happen if the past 10 games run repeats, but for us playing 11.)
Conclusions:
Form is often lost as quickly as it's calculated or recognised; no death knell to be found here! Be gone doom-mongers. But it does point to teams above us enjoying rich veins presently, so much so that two sides are once again threatening 90+ in the Championship. At one stage, 85 felt the more likely threshold this season. Hopefully it still will be!
Lastly, our away form has improved of late but it needs to accelerate again; it must become indistinguishable from our home form really, better than even, starting at sorry Stoke. Time to break out from previous form, short, medium or long, and blossom into the bright beautiful blue butterfly we believe ourselves to be (steely butterfly, not delicate). Go Town go. |  | | |  |

Is it bad that I'm not that excited by the prospect of playing in the Premier League next season?!
Whilst I want us to be successful this season, the Premier League can be a pretty miserable place. Especially with lack of atmosphere, the poison of VAR and the cynical tactics.
The money is useful though. |  |

Old cliche but 100% true
The journey is better than the destination
So many things wrong being in the Prem but one thing we can't ignore ... the benefits from the cash
Rock and a hard place really |  |

Would you rather us play Lincoln or Liverpool? |  |

That's why its important to just enjoy the journey. As a football supporter to be following your team when they're arguably the best side in the division on its day, going into every game with a really good chance of winning, approaching the 'business end' where all the games feel really important and with a high level of jeopardy. That's what its all about innit. |  | | |

Anyone saying anything other than Liverpool isn't a competitive sportsperson. | | | |

I know this isn't he point of the OP but...
See it's funny because mathematically it is still in our hands. If we win all our games, we finish above Boro.
But it seems like people are forgetting that in the conversations on the radio, X and everywhere else.
I'm not saying we will do it, but I find it interesting that this part gets overlooked. I heard on Talk Sport this week that "Coventry are up, and after this weekend, Boro will be 5 points ahead of Millwall, so they're basically promoted" - but no one mentioned that Ipswich and the second spot are still very much in our hands!

Obviously the answer is Liverpool, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will be fun to watch! | |

Agree the only thing is a) we need the money and b) next years Championship is going to be ridiculous. | |
