Coventry City requires four points from their remaining five games to secure a top-two spot and promotion to the Premier League. The team could clinch promotion on Saturday if they defeat Sheffield Wednesday and other contenders drop points. Opta's prediction table gives Coventry City a 100% chance of promotion, highlighting their strong position.
Ipswich Town moved into the automatic promotion places after beating Birmingham City 2-1 on Easter Monday. This victory marked their first comeback win of the season. Ipswich Town holds two games in hand on their promotion rivals, providing a potential advantage in the tight race for second place.
Millwall lost 2-1 to Norwich on Easter Monday, weakening their hold on second place in the Championship standings. Controversy has emerged after Nigel Farage visited Ipswich Town on March 23, causing division among fans. Ipswich Town chair Mark Ashton apologized for any hurt caused by the visit.
The club denies that Farage was invited. Birmingham City's hopes of back-to-back promotions have faded after five defeats in their last seven games.
