Birmingham are already on the beach but it's nothing like plain sailing for the sides battling to join the in the Championship. David Easson has the League One betting preview for a bank holiday where most fans will be hiding behind the sofa.
Good Friday saw an almighty swing at the top in League One where Wycombe clawed Wrexham back and finally got automatic promotion back in their hands. 3 games to go and it really is anybody's guess and the way the fixtures have fallen, there is indeed a possible Hollywood twist with Charlton able to drag both sides back into the abyss that is the playoffs.
Charlton are 4 points behind Wrexham and 5 off Wycombe but it's to Adams Park they go on Monday knowing they could haul them back in with a win. The Addicks have won 14 of their last 19 matches, 4 wins in the most recent five — a surge that has hauled Nathan Jones's side into the promotion chatter. But Wycombe have superb home form, having conceded just 11 goals there all season. They know a point will keep Charlton at arm's length and all but see them off. Yes they know they need to match or better Wrexham but we're coming on to them. Charlton are good enough for at least a point and Wycombe will make sure a point is all they get. Take the draw at 12/5
To Wrexham then. Well, actually to Blackpool. On a Bank Holiday. In this weather? Steve Bruce has almost managed to get the Tangerines into the playoffs. Draw specialists into a late surge that hasn't quite come off. They are 6 points off the top 6 BUT have a game in hand on the rest around them. It's not done just yet. They are very hard to beat with just 3 defeats in 20 matches. Wrexham have suffered death by a thousand draws - well, 3 in their last 4 matches to be precise. Another draw here and it could be curtains, but that's my feeling on this one. It screams the 12/5 for the draw.
And down at the bottom Burton really deserve to escape the drop. The run of performances under Garry Bowyer has been terrific. They haven't always got what they deserve in terms of points but against Birmingham they know they are facing a side with full deckchairs out. Budgie Smugglers on. Sunscreen slapped on. One last push for the Brewers and that game in hand over Bristol Rovers could be vital - but this is a great chance at another point. Take another draw here at 14/5.
And that is a 42/1 draw treble
