Coventry 1 Wigan 2
Derby 1 Burnley 1
N Forest 2 Preston 0

Coventry stay below City after failing to beat Wigan. Forest though are making it interesting. They are 6 points behind the first "safe" place with two games in hand.

Back to Wigan, top of the table as we start to enter the home straight. Fair play to them, after missing out on the play offs last year they have come back a stronger team this year.

Sunderland as you can see below must beat City to keep in touch this weekend.
