Champions and automatic promotion remain wide open in the Championship as the runaway top four bear down on their final month of the season. After last weekend’s results, Leicester City now lead the way by one point from Ipswich Town , who are ahead of Leeds United by one point.
The Whites are now two points back on Enzo Maresca’s side and the Foxes have a game in hand to play.
