I don't see a reason why not, we've won 12 games this season so far, Bristol City in 6th have won 14, although we've lost a lot games this season but at least we've proven that we can win games.
Finishing 12th would be a great achievement for us, we have the fire power to do so,

Our mates down the road, there's 4 better teams in this division that I believe are better sides than Derby, Fulham seem unstoppable, Wolves have just done enough for automatic, Cardiff have a proven shrewd manager and Villa look strong although stuttering slightly of late.

Wolves, automatic
Fulham, automatic
And Cardiff for the play offs.

Birmingham
Burton,
Sunderland to go down.
