Promotion to the 'promised land' of the Premiership looks as open as ever with 8 teams all still in the immediate playoff and automatic promotion picture.
Derby and Birmingham look as though they will just hold off the challenge of West Brom and Sunderland for the automatic placings, although the momentum is certainly with the Black Cats after saturday's win at the Hawthorns and any slip ups could see Roy Keane's men take advantage. Derby will surge back to the summit tonight if they can win at mid-table Norwich. The other two matches see a mid-table battle; Sheffield Wednesday V Plymouth and Hull attempting to pull away from the bottom three and make Ipswich look nervously over their shoulder as those two meet at the KC.
Preston's win last night against Southampton infront of the Sky cameras, moved them back into the playoff places with Neil Mellor scoring his first goal for the club and David Nugent netting his 16th of the season. Rasiak's 20th was in vain on the evening but it remains wide open which should make the last 10 games or so very interesting.
