The EFL Championship is famously one of the toughest divisions to get out of, with a load of huge clubs including West Brom, Leeds, Swansea, Fulham and Blackburn Rovers battling it out in English football's second tier.
There is around 20 games to go in the season, with Marcelo Bielsa's Leeds United leading the way - tied on 52 points with West Bromwich Albion, managed by Slaven Bilic.
The pair have a nine-point gap ahead of the chasing pack, with Brentford, Nottingham Forest, and Fulham not giving up hope of automatic promotion.
Only the top two will reach the promised land of the Premier League, but if you can't wait to see how the rest of the season unfolds... Football Manager has you covered, in collaboration with Championship sponsors Sky Bet.
