four clubs five games you know what time it is it's the

league

one

play

offs let's talk about it hello and welcome to talk about efl I'm James and I'm Millie and today we're locking in our

predictions

for the

league

one

play

offs from the semi-finals. finals to the final, so we'll go, we'll do it this way, we'll do the first leg and the second leg of each tie, um, so as not to confuse things, so let's get straight to the point, so let's go. To start with the first leg, um, Barsby against Bolton, because it's going to be played tomorrow and then we'll do the second leg, then we'll move on to the Oxford Peterb first leg and then the second leg, what's your prediction for the game outward? 2-0 to Bolton, um, but it's and that's purely.

I know that forms are lost when it comes to playoffs, but I think Barley, um, the last five games they haven't won and Bolton have been unbeaten in the last five games, winning two and drawing three, so I think, overall , Bolton is the stronger team, I definitely agree. I've gone with Barnsley, a Bolton 2, for exactly the same reasons, I've given Barnesy that goal just because I think they'll turn up for the playoffs uh, but in my opinion Bolton are the stronger of the two teams and again the shape it's much better so yeah let's go Bolton 21 yeah and then the second leg which is on May 7th I picked Bolton 2 Barnsley one so Bolton. win the overall tie, yes, and I have gone Bolton 2 Barnsley to nil because Bolton will be at home, they will be even stronger.

Barsy may not get that away goal, not that it matters, but yeah, that for me also gets Bolton through, yeah, and then. In the first leg against Peterb that will be played on Saturday, May 4. I have opted for Oxford, Peter BR, the first leg. I think that's purely. Both will be quite even, yes, that's how it will be. very tight defensively and it's going to be a tight game anyway but Oxford beat Peter 5 to nil in April so they have the ability to completely crush them but this is just my prediction, a first. Le uh, for me, I've gone. for Oxford, Peter Bril again, I think it will be a close game.

I think the home game for Oxford will be closer than the away game, um, and yeah, okay, I think Peter Bril's form away from home isn't as good. Their way of playing at home, Oxford, looks solid, so a goalless draw at Oxford, yes, the second leg. I think the second leg will be very close. My prediction is that the first leg will be one-nil against Oxford. It's going to be a very, very incomplete match. The game is very very close and Oxford just goes to Nick so Oxford will be in the final okay so my opinion here I'm going for Peter BR free Oxford 1 yes it's a great decision and in the playoffs It's a lot, but the reason I say it is because Peter BR is known to rise to the occasion and I have a feeling they could do it this time.

That's nothing against Oxford. I think they've had a very strong, solid season. But I think Peter has that. "We are a little experienced for ties like this and they were made for ties like this, so I think they will go through 32 on aggregate, so the tie itself will be close, but I think they will overcome it in the second leg, so that my The final would be Bolton versus Oxford. I have chosen that it will be a high scoring game. I have chosen for Bolton, four, Oxford United, two. I think that if it was that game, they would both be really willing to do it, but I think that.

Bolton has the legs on Oxford so I think it will be tight in the first half and the early stages of the second half and then Oxford will start to pull back and that's when Bolton will go for the kill, so I think Bolton will go. to advance to the championship VI the playoffs my final is Bolton versus Peter BR I think that game would be at 10 pm oh then it would go to extra time and penalties oh do you think it will go yes, I think it will go to penalties um and based on what I just said , Peter br will rise to the occasion, they already had a trip to Wembley this year that went very well.

MH took advantage of a clean play win on penalties, um, just a quick exit from Those four teams, by Bon Barnsley Oxford and Peter, if any of them went up, who do you think has the best chance of surviving in the championship? Because you have them, people went up and then they came back down, you know, Bolton hasn't been. in the championship for a long time, so what do you think? I think of the four, Bolton would probably do quite well in the Championship because they've been building slowly, it's not like they've gone down. right back and they're a little bit all over the place, they've been gradually building that squad, gradually building what they could and they've bounced back from this big setback and I think they would probably, you know, like a They said they would make it to the championship, they would they would settle there and settle there before trying to move on again for the Premier League, so you think they'd probably be in the middle of the first season, yeah, maybe in the bottom half, like I think they would.

Survive, personally, I don't think Oxford would survive in the championship. I guess I don't think Peter would either. The thing is that I have them to upload because they are good that day, but only from the previous one. experience and from what I have seen in the past they have not been able to move forward in the championship and the last time it happened they went down again, so yeah, I don't think the mascot will do it. Make it great and Barnesley hit or miss, yeah, so I'll have to agree with you on Bolton. I think Bolton would have the best chance of surviving in the Championship simply because I think it's a big game that they don't deserve.

Being in League One will be a long time coming, yes, they deserve to be in the Championship at the very least. You know they played in the Premier League and they know what it's about. They had to start from the two of us and then work back. up like they didn't even start from scratch when it all went wrong for them, bless them, so I think yeah, it's time, obviously, I think Bolton are going to go up, but that's how Bolton is going to go. and then they will establish themselves as a championship team. In my opinion, it could be five or ten years before they really challenge for the Holy Grail of the Premier League, but I think even within that time frame they could achieve it. playoffs or something like that um but I'm going to go to barnesley um I think barnesley would probably finish in the bottom half um maybe just above the relegation zone they have a bit of work to do um but you never know uh Peter BR Sorry, but I think Peter will finish last in the league.

I think they will end up very far away. They would be this season. A. Yes, next season. R. Yes I know, I have supported them to rise, but that's it. It doesn't mean I think they will stay at the top and I think Oxford will also go down if they go up. I don't think they'll finish last, but I think it'll be like last. scenario of the day they could survive if other results go their way, so yeah, I don't want to be a party poop or anything because it's about the playoffs and actually getting there in the first place, so yeah, I like it, I think we agree, I think Bolton and Barnesley would be the clubs most likely to do well in the Championship.

I'm not saying that Oxford and Peterb wouldn't do it, but in my opinion I don't think they would do so well. I think so. I need a little more time to build and improve before we challenge in the championship boat, yes, so I mean good luck to all the teams involved and good luck to all the fans, I hope your pulses aren't too high and I'm just looking forward to a very entertaining playoff competition in League One, yes, especially for the neutrals, really people like that have been in this position before, they know what it's about and it's probably one of the most horrible experiences of our lives until we really win. yeah it's definitely the day especially the final one it's tough in the mouth all day until the final whistle blows so enjoy that um Barnsley Bolton Oxford and Peter BR fans um and yeah it's one day at Wembley whoever gets there so there
