Sheffield Wednesday, with the obligation to win

Sheffield Wednesday claimed a crucial 2-0 victory over Birmingham City in their last match. However, their away form has been problematic, as they have the second-worst away record in the Championship this season, with just seven points from 15 games.

Despite being promoted to the Championship via the League One playoffs in the 2022-23 season, Danny Rohl's side have struggled to establish themselves at this level. With seven wins, five draws and 19 defeats in 31 league games, they have 26 points, placing them 23rd in the table.

Although the recent victory offers a glimmer of hope, Wednesday still faces a difficult road to improve their position in the standings and ensure they stay in the division.

Leicester on course for promotion

Leicester are on course to return to the Premier League in the 2024-25 season after their surprise relegation last season. Under Enzo Maresca, the team has performed impressively in the Championship, winning 24 of their 31 games and collecting 75 points, which puts them 11 points ahead of second-placed Southampton.

Their dominance in the second division has been evident, and it seems unlikely that they will not achieve promotion. They have won their last four games, including a 2-1 victory over Watford. They are also still in the FA Cup, with Bournemouth as their next opponents in the fifth round.
