Cherries 11-10 to pick up promotion to top flight
SIX points separate the top seven teams in a typically crazy Championship campaign and Bournemouth are 11-10 with Betfred, BoyleSports and Coral to gain promotion to the Premier League for the first time.
Despite the Cherries being only slightly odds-against to go up, three teams – Middlesbrough, Derby and Norwich – are all seen as more likely to be plying their trade in the top flight next term and such is the battle that seven sides are gunning for promotion but at least one of those won’t even make the playoffs.
Bet365 go 4-1 that automatic promotion is settled by goal difference and 50-1 the top three sides finish on the same points total.
Eddie Howe’s side are 11-2 to go up as champions and they will hit the summit with a win at Fulham on Friday.
