Fans of Leeds United, Aston Villa, Huddersfield Town, Norwich City and more have been voting for the team they think will miss out on a play-off spot.
With the race for a place in the Premier League hotting up by the week, fans have been voting as part of a HITC Sport poll for the team they think is the most likely to miss out on a place in the coveted Championship play-offs. With the race for all 6 positions arguably still for the taking, we’re sure there’s going to be a few more slips and surprises still in store before the end of the season.
So who, according to fans, is missing out? Here’s a look at the top three…

3. Huddersfield Town (9%)
Huddersfield Town manager David Wagner
Despite an outstanding start to the season, 9% of fans who took part in our poll voted for Huddersfield Town as the team most likely to drop out of the play-offs. Their rise to fourth place has arguably been the big shock of the season, But could they be set to topple out? With eight points between them and seventh place, it’s still very possible, if not quite likely.

2. Norwich City (17%)
Norwich manager Alex Neil
Their mixed half of the Championship season has lead to Norwich City picking up 17% of the vote. Canaries fans are still somewhat unconvinced as to whether Alex Neil is the man for them or not, but the Norwich City board have so far stuck by him, seemingly certain he can get them back in the Premier League. Just two points off sixth spot, Norwich City aren’t far from creeping into the play-offs, but just who would they replace?
1. Aston Villa (51%)
Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce
Sitting currently in 14th place in the table, a massive 13 points away from sixth place, fans perhaps unsurprisingly voted Aston Villa as the team most likely to miss out on a play-off place this season, with 51% of the vote. Despite spending huge amounts of money on players like Scott Hogan, Jonathan Kodjia, Ross McCormack and Albert Adomah, the Villans are miles off the track after a disastrous start to the season under Robert Di Matteo and a stuttering time so far under Steve Bruce.
