LFW takes a look ahead to the forthcoming weekends action in the Coca Cola Championship.

Unlike last weekends offerings, there is plenty to catch the eye this time around, starting with a Yorkshire derby at Oakwell between Barnsley and Sheffield Wednesday. Barnsley will be hoping that despite not winning in three games, their impressive home form will see them through and leave Wednesday firmly rooted in the bottom three.

Since Ian Holloway's departure, Plymouth have gone on a quite incredible run and have now sneaked into the play off places. The Pilgrims, this weekend travel to the Hawthorns to take on West Brom. The Baggies are on a bit of a wobble as far as the league campaign is concerned, with only one win in their last five outings.

Another team having a bit of a wobble are Crystal Palace, who went on an amazing 15 match unbeaten run when Neil Warnock took over earlier this year and stormed into the top six. The Eagles travel to in form Preston this Saturday who will be looking to build on their impressive midweek win over leaders Stoke.

Elsewhere - at the wrong end of the table and bottom club Scunthorpe take on Coventry and Colchester have a home clash with Wolves. Leicester have a tough looking trip across theWelsh border to take on Cardiff.

Moving to the other end of the table and second place Bristol City take on Hull at Ashton gate and Watford have a tough looking game away at Burnley. 

LFW's Preview of the Sky Clash between QPR and Stoke at Loftus Road will be online soon...
