Leeds 1-1 Blackburn, Burnley 0-0 Stoke, and more: Football League – as it happened

Championship: Held to a draw after missing two decent scoring opportunities deep into 12 minutes of added time, Leeds remain on top of the table, three points clear of a Burnley team who had Hannibal Mejbri sent off during their Turf Moor stalemate with Stoke City. Sheffield United are in third spot but will climb into the automatic promotion places if they win or draw at Sunderland tonight.

Just outside the playoff spots occupied by United, Sunderland, West Brom and Blackburn, Middlesbrough will go fifth if they beat Hull City in their 5.30pm kick-off.

A late draw at home to Bristol City wasn’t enough to lift Plymouth off the foot of the table and they are three points behind Cardiff City and Hull in the basment. Portsmouth’s emphatic win over Swansea was enough to haul them above the thick black line and they currently sit two points behind struggling Luton, who are finding Championship life difficult in the wake of their relegation from the Premier League last season.

League One: Wycombe and Birmingham City occupy the top two spots of League One with 50 points each. Seeking their third consecutive promotion, Wrexham are two points back in third place.
