Four clubs continue to chase promotion to the Premier League with two weeks remaining in the Championship season. Ipswich Town, Millwall, Southampton, and Middlesbrough occupy the key positions behind the leaders. According to Sky Sports, the race for the remaining automatic promotion spot and play-off positions remains undecided.
Ipswich Town currently sits in second place as they seek consecutive promotions. Millwall and Middlesbrough have moved into the top six following recent runs of form. Southampton remains in contention for an immediate return to the top flight after their relegation last year, per The Guardian.
Leeds United and Leicester City also feature in the battle for the top two positions. League officials confirmed that the final round of regular season fixtures will take place simultaneously to ensure sporting integrity. The top two teams earn automatic promotion, while those finishing third to sixth enter the play-offs. All four chasing clubs have at least three fixtures remaining before the season ends in May.
