Basically, with Workington having home advantage (worth about 6 points), the bookies consider both teams to be pretty much equal.
Hunslet +8 @ 10/11 with Bet365 suggests the bookies can sense an Oldham win.
Should both results go our way today, our odds of going up would probably halve.
Should we lose today, the play-off path would be: Away to Workington, away to loser of 3 v 4, and away to either 2, 3 or 4 in the final. Any defeat in those games would mean we were eliminated.
Should we win and Hunslet win, as above but Home to Workington in the first match.
Should both results go our way: Away to Team 3, if we win we'd be away to Team 2, winning that puts us in the final. There's a second chance if losing away to Team 3.
By finishing 4th, there is a remote chance we could be at home in the final but this would only happen should Team 5 or 6 get to the final. Finishing 5th or 6th makes it impossible to be at home in the final.
