The Championship season concludes on Saturday with three teams competing for the final automatic promotion place. According to the EFL, Leicester City secured the league title earlier in April, leaving one remaining spot for direct entry into the Premier League. Ipswich Town currently occupy second position following their midweek fixture.
Millwall and Middlesbrough remain in contention depending on results during the final afternoon of matches. Sky Sports reports that Ipswich require a single point from their home game against Huddersfield Town to guarantee promotion. If Ipswich lose, Millwall could overtake them with a victory over Swansea City due to goal difference.
Middlesbrough must win their final match and rely on both Ipswich and Millwall failing to pick up points to finish in the top two, per The Guardian. The teams finishing between third and sixth will enter the play-offs. All final-day fixtures across the division are scheduled to kick off simultaneously at 12:30 BST to ensure sporting integrity.
