    The full Championship table

    Leeds can move five points clear at the top with a win over Watford tonight.

    Perhaps more significantly, victory for Daniel Farke's team would provide them with an eight-point advantage over third-placed Burnley in their hunt for an automatic promotion.

    Neither the Clarets or second-placed Sheffield United feature today, but there could be some intriguing movement at the foot of the table as Portsmouth host Cardiff City and (for now) managerless Derby County face Oxford United at Pride Park.

    A win or high-scoring draw would see the Rams leapfrog Hull City and finish the night outside of the drop zone.
