The first international break of the 2026/27 season has arrived, putting the second tier of English football on pause.
In typical fashion, the Championship rounded off with a hectic weekend of action. Sheffield United squandered a lead to lose 2-1 to Stoke City and Middlesbrough struck late to secure a 2-2 draw with Birmingham City.
Bolton Wanderers were 4-3 victors over Norwich City in a topsy-turvy affair, Wolverhampton Wanderers defeated West Bromwich Albion in the Black Country derby and West Ham United and Millwall played out a thrilling 2-2 draw,
Cardiff City were 3-1 winners against Charlton Athletic, Burnley and Derby County shared the spoils and Swansea City continued their strong form by defating Lincoln City.
Portsmouth and Blackburn Rovers could not be separated, nor could Queens Park Rangers and Preston North End, and Wrexham edged past Southampton. Bristol City, meanwhile, secured a 1-0 win over Watford courtesy of a first-half Dom Ballard effort.
