Middlesbrough are assured of participation in the Championship play-offs after their midweek win over Hull City.

A 3-1 victory took fourth-placed Boro up to 74 points, with three games remaining.

In League One, Sheffield Wednesday still harbour hopes of finishing in the top two despite a difficult run-in so far, while Barnsley have an outside chance of automatic promotion, heading into this weekend’s games.

Both the Owls and Reds are guaranteed play-off participation, come what may and should they remain in their current positions of third and four respectively, they would be at home in the second-leg of any play-off semi-final.
