 Thursday, 24th Apr 2008 19:15 LFW looks ahead to the weekends penultimate fixtures in the Coca Cola Championship. With just two games to go now, we reach an exciting weekend of where there are certainly a few issues that 'could' be decided, at both ends of the table. We start this week at the bottom end of the table and with two relegation spaces already filled, the battle to beat the drop has reached almost boiling point and there is a massive game at the Walkers Stadium between Leicester and Sheffield Wednesday - a simply MUST WIN game for both sides. A win for the Foxes will see them safe and if results go against them, the Owls will be in League One next season. However, if the Owls are victorious, it will be a nervy day next weekend for both sides. A draw is not an option... Hovering above the drop zone are Southampton, who face a thankless task against leaders West Brom at the Hawthorns. This game is live on Sky on Monday evening and if results have been favourable for the Baggies, they could be already promoted and will be looking to clinch the title. QPR's home form against the top 6 will have Baggies fans hoping it will be all done and dusted by the time they reach Loftus Road next Sunday. Staying at the top and second placed Stoke travel to relegated Colchester in what will be the final game at Layer Road for the home side. Third placed Hull take on 6th placed Palace in another huge game for both sides. If Palace are beaten, it could open the door for Wolves, Ipswich and Sheffield United to close the gap for the final play off place. Watford can consolidate their place with a home game against relegated Scunthorpe. As for Bristol City, it looks like that they have finally run out of steam, but should hold on for a desereved shot at the play offs. The Robins travel to Sheffield United. LFW's Preview of the R's final away game of the season at Norwich, will be online soon... Saturday, 26 April, 2008 Barnsley v Charlton Athletic Monday, 28 April, 2008 West Bromwich Albion v Southampton
