Long season

Leeds and Norwich are in great form at the moment, but the Championship season is long and hard, and anything is possible.

The likes of West Bromwich Albion, Derby County and Middlesbrough are not far behind the Whites and the Canaries in the league table, and they will be aiming for the automatic promotion spots as well.

Winning the Championship title does not matter as much as finishing in the top two, and that is what Norwich and Leeds should be aiming for.
