For the winner, the riches and prestige of the Premier League await. Four teams remain; Norwich, Middlesbrough, Brentford and Ipswich. Norwich have perhaps the best squad and have had an impressive second half of the season. Middlesbrough have produced some eye-catching results, notably winning at Manchester City in the FA Cup. Brentford are arguably the romantic choice, but their manager will be leaving at the end of the season regardless. Ipswich are a side in the image of their manager, Mick McCarthy. They do have a striker in hot form in Freddie Sears. Ipswich v Norwich Brentford v Middlesbrough

I'm rooting for Boro though, there's something I enjoy about Newcastle/Sunderland/Middlesborough and them all being in the Prem (if Newcastle/Sunderland stay up this season that is!)

Easily the second leg of the Norwich/ Ipswich match will be one of the biggest East Anglian derbies since the 1985 League Cup semi-finals. Too close to call there. I can see Middlesbrough maintaining their one-goal lead against Brentford. Although I hope I'm proved wrong as I would love to see Brentford get promoted.

BuzzJack Platinum Member Joined: 4 October 2014 Posts: 5,610 User: 21,265	I think Middlesbrough would have the best chance of thriving in the Premier League and the games against Newcastle and Sunderland would make a welcome return to the division. Ipswich Norwich was typically scrappy and well fought. You'd think that Norwich's quality will win out but anybody underestimating Ipswich could be in for a rude awakening. They've been away from the Premier League for too long now (2002).

With Middlesbrough with a one-goal advantage over Brentford. How do people see this going? I think it will be a 2-1 win to Middlesbrough although I hope I'm proved wrong and Brentford prevail.

BuzzJack Platinum Member Joined: 4 October 2014 Posts: 5,610 User: 21,265	Middlesbrough v Norwich final then. The final most people would have predicted and the two teams who narrowly missed out on automatic promotion. Quite close to call. Predictions?

Anyway yes I imagine I will be watching as this effectively is a match with a direct effect on the forthcoming PL season. Not sure who I'd rather win though, neither really.
