There are 12 games this weekend in the Championship string with leaders Bournemouth facing Watford at Dean Court tonight.
Derby, who Cardiff face tomorrow, are 2nd on goal difference and will be looking to reclaim top spot with a win in south Wales.
The way things are going at the moment I'm more concerned with the fixtures involving the bottom three, who at the moment seem to be drifting away.
Millwall are away at Forest while Wigan face a tough trip to Ipswich. Doomed Blackpool host Brighton.
Results for the last round of fixtures are laid out below the current table.
