Top 5: Things to look out for in the Championship Play-Offs

Fulham’s attacking prowess against the top clubs

Fulham secured themselves the last remaining play-off spot on the final day of the season following a late run of good form coinciding with the downfall of Leeds United.

They are unbeaten in their last six games, winning five of these and have been in extremely impressive form against the top Championship sides this season.

Not only did they beat play-off rivals Sheffield Wednesday on the last day of the campaign, but they also did the double over title winners Newcastle United, put five goals past semi-final opponents Reading and beat Huddersfield 9-1 on aggregate in their two league matches this season.

Slavisa Jokanovic’s side go into the competition as favourites, despite there being only one team in the last 11 seasons that has finished sixth in the Championship table who have gone on to win promotion via the play-offs (Blackpool in 2009/10).

This certainly says a lot about this London outfit and if they can get past Jaap Stam’s Reading over two legs, they will certainly have a great shot at a Premier League return.
