The Championship Stats - 25th to 27th April

Last updated : 27 April 2009 By Tony Scholes
Any one of those three clubs can go up automatically whilst the other two will contest the play offs with two of Cardiff, Burnley and Preston. Down at the bottom Norwich have to win at already doomed Charlton and hope Barnsley lose at Plymouth. If not it is Norwich who go down, otherwise it will be Barnsley.

The results and stats from the weekend are below along with the leading goalscorers in the league, each club's disciplinary record and the final league fixtures.
