I'd say the most likely outcome is probably a 0-0 all things considered.
Neither team can afford to lose so i'm not expecting them to take too many risks.
Football being football, I'll probably be proven wrong but it's been a great few weeks for us.
Looking forward to hitting the ground running in the Championship next season!
Even though you don't water the pitch I still hope you pull of the greatest escape.

Southampton have City at home. They will be going all guns blazing tonight.
Will probably finish 0-0 with both sides terrified of losing. That obviously suits us, but considering our survival hangs on this, Im quite enjoying all this relegation hysteria from other clubs.
Thinking long-term I think Saints will be a bigger threat to our assault on the Championship next season than Swansea (or Huddersfield), so wouldn't mind them staying up.
I still expect to be relegated but I'm really enjoying these recent times. We looked dead and buried weeks ago, so to be in this position now is remarkable.
It bodes well for next season and bring it on whatever happens. After the apathy had set in under TP and AP...that Spurs game on Saturday took me back to the promotion, beating Wolves/Villa, big game days.

For me, Southampton have to treat this match as last chance saloon. Sure, get a draw and they still stand a chance, but not a good one given how they have Man City and Swansea have Stoke, not to mention West Brom potentially stealing safety off both of them.
Whether they will treat it like that is another matter. Funny things go through players' minds in these situations.
I'd say the fear of defeat could stifle both teams. That's why i'm going for a draw. Wishful thinking perhaps but it's one of those matches where the worst case scenario is losing so a draw seems a logical prediction.
It's also worth pointing out that neither team is exactly used to winning at the moment.
Darren Moore has been named Premier League manager of the month for April. And he gathered more than 100 #wba staff at the training ground to share in the prize.

What a guy!
Sign him up. 20 year contract!
Biggest game of the season so far.
And the Baggies are not even playing!
Draw tonight.
Nice heavy defeat for the Saints at the weekend.
Stoke to do WBA a favour by beating Swansea.
Then it is all down to Roy to sit back and conceed the game... It's an old favour, Roy. Come on. You know you want to do the right thing!
If relegation does come tonight. It’s ok. We’ve had months to prepare. We knew it was coming. But what this last few games have done is given us hope, for next season. We were dead. Gone. Life in the old dog yet. The championship? We welcome the chase.
I hope you survive
Until the last kick, of the last seconds of extra time, on Saturday
Boing pop !
Just checked, final games on Sunday. Another 24 hrs of pain
If Carlsberg did seasons......
Come on lads, one of you must gotta have some balls and say something
What about baggiemon (who copied the Hammers fan)
Bloody hell. Swansea are awful.
Couldnt hit a barn door.
I hope they go down. 'Uddersfield deserve to stay up far more than that shower of shte.
Halfy didn’t get his wish.....
Good bye, it’s over
⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬
We’ll be back
Looking forward to a year against some old foes
Chumpo a different place now JH, clubs spending big money down there, and with a big overhaul it may take a few years to get back .........with us
Maybe so, time will tell. After almost a decade in the Prem...I can live with that.
Well, the worm has turned. What's happened to the snide comments, the Wo1ve5, the well-run club, the "we're the best team in the Midlands", the expectation of top 10 finishes and plans for Europe? Going down meekly with hardly a whimper.
We've waited quite a while for this moment, but now it's Wolves' turn. I won't miss you and hope that you struggle with your aged squad with little resale value and high wages.
Goodbyeeeeee!!!!
