But their last defeats were against direct rivals who are fighting not to go down to the third division. Huddersfield have 43 points, Birmingham have 42, Sheffield with 42, Rotherham have 24. A defeat this afternoon would give them their 20th defeat, after 41 games with 11 draws and 11 wins. 38 goals for and 54 against.

The Championship
After 40 games, Ipswich Town is no longer the leader of the second division, now Leicester City is the new monarch, with a minimum difference of 1 point. Total madness in the Championship with Leeds pushing to qualify for the first two places, one point away from second place. There are only 5 games left to see who goes to the Premier League.
