Lets move away from derby ticketgate shall we.
This evening is significant, and I'm not talking Arsenal v Bayern!
Here's what's going down in the Championship, thoughts and predictions - BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Millwall 19:45 Leicester City
The Den is getting just that little more noisy and that bit more intimidating since Neil Harris' return. BUT the uptick in form on his return that saw a win against Brum, has really dropped away. With terrible losses against Hudds and Rotherham, that's seen them drop into the mire. 2 points off the dropzone. They need a turn around - dare we dream its tonight?
Leicester were very close to a morale sapping home draw to Brum, but a late goal has got to have given them a boost. I can see a run coming for them.
Leicester Win.
Plymouth Argyle 19:45 Queens Park Rangers
Neither out of the relegation picture. Both in mixed form. Perhaps we want a draw so they're both still fighting when the play Leicester and Leeds respectively. Maybe a home win so Plymouth are buoyed ahead of the visit of Leicester and to prove their in-house managerial appointment was a good move.
Draw
Preston North End 19:45 Huddersfield Town
Preston still have a vague play-off chance, and my word wouldn't we like them to replace Norwich. But more importantly they are still to entertain Leicester. Have Hudds turn a corner after their massive weekend win?! Preston form far superior and strong at home (bar recent Stoke loss)
Preston Win
Sheffield Wednesday 19:45 Norwich City
Very big crowd incoming. 5000 tickets been given to local groups to for their 5000th league fixture. And the away win at QPR has further increased hope in the Weds fan base of survival, as their love-in with Danny Rohl continues. Norwich form is good and buoyed by derby and the target of securing 6th. But they are weak away from home and if Weds can get going the crowd could turn it.
Owls Win
Southampton 19:45 Coventry City
Are Southampton on the beach?! not really as play-offs are guaranteed. But pressure is off and that might help. They'll want to create good form in the last 5 games to take into the play-offs. They are also automatic king makers with games against both Leeds and Leicester - will take the foot off the gas as they'd prefer Ipswich? a bit silly I'd suggest. Its about winning, and showing they were good enough for automatics. Coventry are rocking, in good league form (despite a Cardiff home wobble), and go to Wembley in 2 weeks for a Man U semi. But the real story is their expensively assemble strikeforce have really clicked.
Saints Win
Leeds United 20:00 Sunderland
Oh Sunderland what the feck has gone wrong. A total mess and a season going very wrong, out of the play-off mix some time ago. And their current form is no better. A chastening 5-1 home loss to a Blackburn team clicking again. But Jack Clarke is newly back. Does that give us hope what with Leeds losing to Coventry. Naaaah.
Leeds Win |  |

Anything less than wins for Leeds and the Leicester cheaters would be a great night. Hard to see it but it is that time of year when strange things happen. Still feels like Saints aren’t quite completely out of it. |  |

Sunderland at home is one of the easiest fixtures in the league right now - they've screwed it up and are just waiting for the season to end. Hard to see past a comfortable Leeds victory.
Think there's a chance Millwall scrap themselves a point. Slight dip in form after impressing immediately after Harris came back in but unbeaten at home since his return, including defeating Watford and holding West Brom to a draw. Leicester win still the most likely outcome but feels like they're staggering towards the finish line and a proper physical contest might ruffle their feathers somewhat. |  |

Can’t see anything other than Leicester & Leeds wins unfortunately. Millwall have the better chance of an upset. Sunderland were tripe when they still had something to play for. Now they’ll be on the beach and chances are Leeds will be improving their goal difference even further. |  | | |

Expecting Leeds and Leicester to win
Would take Leicester winning and Leeds drawing right now if offered.
Couldn't care less about the other games. |  |

I can't envisage anything but Leicester and Leeds wins with those fixtures, but I've thought that a few times this season and been proved wrong, so here's hoping! [Post edited 9 Apr 19:15]

Would love to see Leeds and Leicester slip up tonight, but seems unlikely, even allowing for end of season nerves, especially Leeds at home to Sunderland. |  |

Leeds with a comfortable 3-0 against opponents who are dialling it in. Leicester may be briefly inconvenienced before winning 3-1. | |

Anyone who mathematically, their season is effectively over, v someone still desperate for points whichever end of the table, may still be a challenge & not necessarily "on the beach" as this is the part of the season where they may blood youngsters with no fear
I don't think Sunderland have ever had a victory v Leeds that'll be remembered through history - I quite fancy this tonight!!! | | | |

Really wouldn't surprise me if the scum lose at the Wendies, after the lord mayor's show and all that.
Anything other than a win for Leicester and Leeds would be massive, can't see it though. | | | |
