Welcome back to LFW's look ahead to this weekends action in the Coca Cola Championship.

Well, the stand out game, without a doubt, is the Sky clash and Steel City derby from Hillsborough as Sheffield Wednesday take on Sheffield United. Although the Owls will be hoping the weather will stay dry over the next day or so following the postponement of their FA Cup replay against Derby on Tuesday night, due to a waterlogged pitch.

The evening Sky game comes from Vicarage Road as Watford take on Charlton in a 3rd v 5th clash. Watford fans will no doubt be mourning the sale of striker, Marlon King following his much publicised £5 million pound move to Fulham today. Collins John joins the Hornets on loan as part of the deal.

Leaders West Brom will be looking to extend their stay at the top as they take on Cardiff at the Hawthorns. Another home banker could come at Highfield Road as Coventry take on Burnley. The Sky Blues win one week and lose the next form shows that is their turn to win this week against Owen Coyle's men.

Other stand out games come from Selhurst Park and Carrow Road. Palace have almost sneaked into the top six without being noticed and take on second placed Bristol City this weekend. Norwich take on Leicester with just one point seperating the two sides near the bottom of the table. A draw will do just nicely here thank you.
