Crewe v Derby, 19:45

Ipswich v Rotherham, 19:45

Leeds v Sheff Utd, 19:45

Leicester v Wolverhampton, 19:45

Plymouth v Watford, 19:45

Preston v Brighton, 19:45

QPR v Gillingham, 19:45

Reading v Millwall, 20:00

Wigan v Sunderland, 20:00

Coventry v Nottm Forest, 19:45

Cardiff could move up 5 places tonight if we were to win at Stoke and other results go in our favour. Plymouth and Watford would need to draw while Crewe would have to lose and Brighton not win.

Coventry and Forest play on Wednesday night. As much as I would like to see Forest stay up I would feel better if midweek results put us 7 points clear of them leaving them facing likely relegation.

A City defeat and a result for Gillingham at QPR would see us drop into the bottom three.

It's nail biting, come on City, and come on QPR, Preston and Derby as well.
