With that in mind, they are set for the playoffs at worst.<\/p>\n<p>Catching Leeds, Sheffield United and Burnley seems a tall order but a strong end to the season will put plenty of pressure on the trio.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been eight years since the club last played <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/premier-league-barclays-era-deep-dive\/\">Premier League<\/a> football.
