Leeds currently sit top of the tree in the second tier, having regained their status earlier this week with a 2-1 win over Sunderland. Sheffield United are hot on their heels in second and the two sides will lock horns in a mouthwatering battle on Monday (February 24).
Burnley are the closest to the top two in third, but there is a five-point gap between Scott Parker’s Clarets and Chris Wilder’s Blades. Sunderland occupy fourth, while the play-off places are completed by Blackburn Rovers and West Bromwich Albion.
The second tier is renowned for its competitive nature and there is a vast array of clubs in the chasing pack below the top six. Sheffield Wednesday are among those looking to gatecrash, as are Middlesbrough, Coventry City and Bristol City.
