Millwall
A team situated in the lower reaches of the league table, engaged in a battle to retain their status in the Championship. Having played 41 matches, they've managed to accrue 44 points, which is two more than two of their relegation zone rivals. However, in the previous round, Millwall suffered a defeat away to Huddersfield, a direct competitor. Overall, in their last five matches, they've garnered only four points (one win, one draw, and three losses).
Leicester
The Foxes have reclaimed the top spot in the Championship table. With a victory in the previous round against Birmingham, Leicester has amassed 88 points from 40 matches. Their lead over the nearest pursuer is minimal - just one point, but importantly, they have one more game in hand. Leicester underwent a three-game winless streak, but subsequently clinched two victories, thus reclaiming the top position in the Championship.
