Nottingham Forest predictor in 16 games to decide Championship fate

It is not the season Nottingham Forest expected after just missing out on the Championship play-offs on the final day of last season.

But Chris Hughton has made great strides to pull the club away from the relegation fight thanks to results over the last couple of months.

Forest currently sit 18th with a five-point cushion to the bottom three despite last night's sucker punch defeat at promotion-chasing Swansea.

There are a couple of teams below with games in hand - Rotherham have played two fewer games and trail by four points, Sheffield Wednesday have played one fewer and are five behind - but it is certainly a more comfortable situation than back in October.

Wycombe are already 10 points adrift at the bottom while Birmingham have been sucked right into trouble and Aitor Karanka is under increasing pressure.

We have set up our Championship predictor to see who you think will be doomed to League One come the spring.

File the results for all the fixtures involved for teams within 10 points of the drop zone.

Don't forget to share your final league table via our Nottingham Forest Facebook page or @NNFC_live on Twitter.

Infogol's latest calculations for most likely finishes have Wednesday, Birmingham and Wycombe in the last three places, with Coventry in 21st, Huddersfield in 20th and Rotherham 19th.

Forest are tipped to leapfrog Bristol City and end up in 17th, with Derby County a place better off.

Latest relegation odds

Wycombe 1/100, Birmingham 8/11, Sheffield Wednesday 11/10, Coventry 5/2, Rotherham 3/1, Huddersfield 7/2, Nottingham Forest 9/1, Bristol City 10/1, QPR 25/1, Luton 28/1.
