The Seasiders’ 3-2 victory over Barnsley at Bloomfield Road on Saturday, leaves them just two points off the fifth place Tykes, who have sacked manager Neill Collins this week ahead of their home game against Northampton Town.
Just below the Yorkshire outfit by a point in sixth is Lincoln City, who moved above Oxford United on goal difference following last weekend’s result, with the two clubs taking on Portsmouth and Exeter respectively in their final outings.
Here’s the final predicted table based on Sky Bet’s latest odds:
