Championship Table 2019: Week 44 Results, Play-off Standings and Latest Schedule

Leeds United's bid to earn automatic promotion to the Premier League suffered a damaging blow after a 2-0 defeat away to Brentford on Monday. The loss has left manager Marcelo Bielsa's team three points below second with an inferior goal difference ahead of the final two matches of the season, making the play-offs a more likely path to promotion.

Sheffield United continue to hold Leeds at bay after putting three past Hull City on their travels. The Blades are three points adrift of leaders Norwich City, after the Canaries missed the chance to book a return to the top flight thanks to a 2-2 draw with Stoke City at the bet365 Stadium.
