The Championship is known for its unpredictability, but at this point, it seems almost certain that Leicester City will soon be making a return to the Premier League. With an impressive 78 points and 14 games left to play, they are on track to surpass the record-breaking 106 points set by Reading in 2005/06.
The competition for second place and automatic promotion is intense this season. Leeds, who won the Championship title four years ago, are currently engaged in a tight race with Southampton, and Ipswich Town is also in the mix. Every game feels like a must-win, which is driving standards to even greater heights.
Leeds, under manager Marcelo Bielsa, currently have 66 points from 32 games, putting them ahead of their previous record-setting pace. Farke’s men are unbeaten at home and are on track to finish with around 96 points, their best-ever season in the second tier. To secure promotion, Leeds will likely need to set a new record for points earned in the club’s history.
