Wycombe manager Gareth Ainsworth believes his side ‘have to get 46 points’ to stay in the Championship.
This is the maximum number of points Wanderers can now finish on following their 2-2 draw at Swansea City on April 17, which saw the Chairboys throw away a two-goal lead in the final 10 minutes.
The result means Wycombe stay bottom on 34 points and are currently nine points from safety with four games to go.
And even if Wanderers did win their last four games, there is still no guarantee that will avoid the drop.
Speaking after the draw in Wales, Ainsworth said: “We have got to get 46 points as that is what is available to us.

“That’s every game we have to win in my eyes.
“Anything other than bottom of the league is a bonus for us and we are hoping to not be the bottom team.
“We’re trying to get above Sheffield Wednesday at least and maybe catch Rotherham, whilst Derby and Coventry are all catchable.
“Who knows? Fairy tales have happened before with me.
“It will be great again but I am just excited for the future of this football club, regardless of what league we are in.
“Like any dressing room, the lads were gutted at the end but I wanted them to be gutted because the second goal is avoidable.

“That moment of quality, that cross which is right on the button and that is the sort of thing you see in this league and that is what Swansea did so fair play to them.

“We’ve showed ourselves some Championship attacking play and I am really pleased with that.”
The boss also stated that the season has been a ‘learning curve’ for his players.
Wanderers started the season with seven consecutive league defeats and only scored one goal in that time.
However, as it stands, they are currently 10th in the form table as they have won, drawn two, and lost two of their last six matches.
Despite that, Ainsworth was fully supportive of his squad and that he is ‘excited for the future’, regardless of what league Wycombe are in.
He continued: “I think if you are a team that starts well and ends up having a sticky patch or failing to finish well, I’d rather be the team that doesn’t start well, learns about the league, and finishes strong because I think that produces good building blocks for the future.
“I know we started very badly – those first seven games where we got beat.

“However, I think we need to give the lads some credit about learning about the league and adapting to the way they have.
“If the season started four months ago, we would have been in midtable, but that is football.
“However, the learning curve is really important, and I am really excited for the future for this football club, and that is for the next four games, and for next season, regardless of what league we are in.”
Up next is Bristol City at Adams Park on April 21.
