Good luck to Dean Saunders on St David's Day.
2nd place Watford face Wolves tonight in the live Sky game. It will give fans a chance to see just how good Watford are compared to Cardiff's performance at Molineux on Sunday.
Crystal Palace in 4th are also playing tonight. They are away at Derby.
By 9.45 this evening City will have two games in hand on both of these sides. Let's hope they still have the 8 points and 12 points gap respectively they currently have on these teams.
Cardiff are away at Middlesbrough. The home side have been on a shocking run of form and were beaten by Chelsea in the FA Cup in midweek and by Millwall last weekend. This will be their third home game in a week.
Hull City are 3rd and they entertain Birmingham at home on Saturday while Leicester are hoping to build on the midweek win over Blackburn when they travel to Ipswich.
Brighton are 6th. They welcome Huddersfield Town to the Amex.
