Championship round-up

In third place and poised for their second consecutive crack at the play-offs, Luton Town had to come from behind to beat relegation-threatened Blackpool, who are now seven points from safety.

Given the chance of making up ground in Middlesbrough in fourth, Millwall were beaten by Hull City, while Blackburn remain in sixth place despite being held by Huddersfield Town in the day’s early kick-off. Only goal difference keeps them above Preston, who left it late to take all three points against Reading. Norwich blew their chance of moving into the play-off place by failing to beat Rotherham at home.

Nearer the bottom, QPR came from two goals down to draw with West Brom at the Hawthorns. Gareth Ainsworth’s side, who were top of the table in late October under Mick Beale, sit two points and two places above the relegation zone. Rock bottom of the table, eight points from safety, Wigan Athletic look doomed after losing 2-0 to Swansea at the DW Stadium.
