    Will McCubbin: Fulham and Wolves up in the automatics and Villa to go up through the play off's. All 3 teams very strong this year.

    Rachel Armitage: I’m a Wolves fan and there’s still a small part of me that’s nervous of a collapse after witnessing many wobbles over the years, but I admit, that small nervous part of me is getting smaller...

    Jamie Stewart: Hmmm... Sunderland and Burton. Just kidding! Wolves and Fulham whilst Villa will go up through the playoffs.

    Ryan Jones: 1st Wolves 2nd Cardiff City 3rd Aston Villa 4th Fulham 5th Derby County 6th Preston North End, with PNE playoff winners.

    That's the first time we've seen Preston mentioned as promotion candidates this evening. Are there any more North End fans out there tonight feeling just as confident?

    It's no more than Bristol City deserve.

    The Robins level things up, Bobby Reid playing a smart one-two with Josh Brownhill in the Fulham box and shooting beyond Marcus Bettinelli into the far corner.

    Game on.

    Could Leeds be set for their first win since Boxing Day?

    Leeds have been under pressure for most of the game so far but Liam Cooper's accurate long pass out of defence releases Stuart Dallas and his cross is emphatically headed in by Pierre-Michel Lasogga.

    That's three in three for the big German striker now.

    Bristol City 0-1 Fulham

    If you were trying to guess who might get Bristol City back on level terms with Fulham, Hordur Magnusson would probably be pretty low on your list of guesses.

    The Icelandic left-back is causing problems for the visitors' defence though, with two long throw-ins causing worry in the penalty area and a volley from miles out forcing a save out of Marcus Bettinelli.

    Derby are looking to avoid falling to successive defeats under Gary Rowett for the first time since he took charge in March 2017.

    The Rams have dropped from second to fourth after taking one point from their last two games.

    They've been largely on top so far tonight but Leeds goalkeeper Felix Wiedwald has not been called into action yet.

    Ipswich 0-0 Cardiff

    Agonisingly close for Ipswich.

    Grant Ward's curling strike looks destined for the back of the Cardiff net, but Neil Etheridge stretches out a hand to tip the ball wide.

    Christoph Zimmerman (27 mins)

    Game back on?

    Less than two minutes after conceding a goal from a header at the near post from a set piece Norwich go and get one of their own.

    Christoph Zimmerman applies the finishing touch to Denis Srbeny's free-kick and the Canaries are back in the game.

    Alfred N'Diaye (25 mins)

    Game over already?

    Barry Douglas sends in a fierce corner and Alfred N'Diaye gets above everyone else at the near post and heads it in.

    Wolves won 2-0 at Carrow Road in October and they'll be looking to better that now with more than an hour still to play.

    Bristol City 0-1 Fulham

    Bristol City boss Lee Johnson looked a pretty happy chap before kick-off at Ashton Gate.

    I doubt he's looking quite so cheery now, as his Robins side have not created any real chances since Aleksandar Mitrovic's opener for Fulham.

    Ryan Kent has swung some dangerous deliveries into the box, but Fulham keeper Marcus Bettinelli has been a match for them so far.

    Wolves 1-0 Norwich

    Wolves are looking to get this done quickly tonight.

    The hosts are firmly on top and after Diogo Jota sends a shot across the goal Barry Douglas sends his effort from the edge of the area just wide.

    Ipswich 0-0 Cardiff

    Cardiff are definitely the better of the two sides at Portman Road.

    Loic Damour lines up another effort from 25 yards out, but can't quite get his angles right as the ball sails wide of goal.

    Bartosz Bialkowski could be in for a busy night in the Ipswich net.

    Derby 0-0 Leeds

    Leeds are looking to end a rotten run of form this evening.

    The Elland Road side have not won since Boxing Day, a series of results that has seen them drop from fifth to 11th.

    They've just weathered a bit of a Derby storm, with a deep corner just evading everyone at the back post before David Nugent's diving header goes just wide.

    Aleksandar Mitrovic (14 mins)

    A huge goal in the race for the play-offs.

    Aleksandar Mitrovic smashes in his first goal since signing on loan from Newcastle, latching onto Cyrus Christie's incisive through-ball and beating Frank Fielding.

    Christie's pass was absolutely magical, sliding the ball across the face of goal with the outside of his right foot to a spot where Mitrovic couldn't possibly miss.

    The leaders lead.

    Diogo Jota's shot hits the inside of the post and Canaries defender Jamal Lewis before just about making it over the line before Grant Hanley can scramble it away. Goal-line technology gives it the thumbs up.

    Ipswich 0-0 Cardiff

    There hasn't been much to talk about since Matt Connolly missed an early volleyed chance for Cardiff.

    Ipswich have not been able to get a shot away after a little over 10 minutes of play, while Marko Grujic has fired Cardiff's second effort of the night some way off target.

    Ben McNamara: I think it will be Wolves and Villa topping the lot, but the play-offs are a toss-up! I'm thinking Boro sneak in sixth and get back to the Premier League.

    Neil: Wolves and Cardiff

    Short and sweet, Neil...

    Wolves 0-0 Norwich

    Wolves, who could go 15 points clear of third place tonight, force an early corner that the visitors manage to hack away.

    It's been a pretty cagey start at Ashton Gate, with Fulham just shading the first few minutes.

    Cottagers striker Aleksandar Mitrovic tries his luck from the edge of the box, but Frank Fielding makes a comfortable stop.

    Derby have started brightly at Pride Park but we're yet to have a chance of note.

    If they win and Cardiff lose at Ipswich then the Rams will go back up to second.

    Ipswich 0-0 Cardiff

    First real chance of the night.

    The ball drops kindly for Matt Connolly in the Ipswich box, but he volleys narrowly wide of Bartosz Bialkowski's goal.

    The hosts are camped inside their own half at the moment.
