Championship LIVE: Final day latest update and scores from Premier League promotion race | OneFootball

Ipswich, Millwall and Middlesbrough are all hoping to join Coventry in the top-flight next season

The second-tier takes centre stage today with a thrilling three-way fight for automatic promotion to the Premier League. An absorbing battle to join champions Coventry in the top-flight is going right down to the wire, with Ipswich currently occupying second spot with a one-point buffer in search of an instant return to the promised land as they finish the campaign at home to QPR this lunchtime.

Looking to capitalise on any slip-up from the Tractor Boys is third-place Millwall, who host relegated Oxford as they look to book their place in the Premier League for the very first time. A point behind them is Middlesbrough, on the road at Wrexham with a tough task to end a top-tier exile that has lasted for almost a decade. Only one of those teams can go up this afternoon, with the other two having to pick themselves up quickly for the lottery of the play-offs, where Southampton are already guaranteed a place.
