Follow live coverage as Leeds United face Hull City in the Championship today.
An increasingly competitive second tier of English football remains an intense and exciting competition, with the prize of a place in the Premier League at the end of the season.
Last year, Southampton, Leicester City and Leeds United were relegated from the top flight and all will be hoping for a quick return, but the likes of Norwich City, West Bromwich Albion and Sunderland all have real promotion ambitions too.
At the other end of the table, QPR, Cardiff City and Birmingham City will be hoping for better campaigns than last year’s relegation battle, while newcomers Sheffield Wednesday will look to survive after making dramatic progress in the play-offs.
