On the other hand, he believes the future of Brighton and Newcastle in the top-flight is up in the air.
Warnock told Sky Sports’ Football Show: “I’m going to go for Sheffield United, West Brom and Newcastle.
"When I look at Brighton – it’s either Newcastle or Brighton – because I think Fulham will get out of it.

"They’ve got the second-best defence in the league since (Joachim) Andersen and Tosin (Adarabioyo) have started playing together, which speaks volumes of what Scott Parker has done there.
"Brighton – they’re very pretty on the eye. They don’t have an edge about them, they don’t have a ruthless streak in front of goal or that killer instinct.
"Newcastle have huge problems upfront and the way they create opportunities and don’t have that firepower.
"So, I think Fulham will have enough. I said it a couple of weeks ago, if Scott Parker keeps Fulham up, he’s manager of the season.”
