Championship Weekend Preview
The first game of the weekend could well be the best in the Championship this weekend, as Sunderland, who have started very well, host Leeds under the lights.
They come into the games as 1st and 5th, but a win for Leeds would actually see them go joint top with Sunderland, and potentially ahead depending on how goal difference pans out.
Burnley hosting Preston is the pick of Saturday's early kick offs, and live on Sky, this is a game between two sides who are close together in geography, though in the standings they are far apart, Burnley begin the weekend in 2nd, while Preston are all the way down in 21st.
Onto the Saturday 3pm kick offs and the highlight for me has to be Sheffield United against Luton.
Both sides were relegated from the Premier League last season, and both have aspirations for an immediate return.
That's not going too bad for United, who start the weekend in 3rd, but as for Luton, it's been pretty poor and they're down in 20th position with just two wins from eight games.
Lastly, on Sunday we have another game that has plenty of local needle about it, s Bristol City host Cardiff.
Always renowned for being a strong derby game, this is also like on Sky Sports, and should be a great watch.
Bristol City are up in mid table so far, while Cardiff begin the weekend rock bottom, with just four points out of a possible 24, and currently without a manager.
