Relegation permutations

Hull start in 22nd place, one point adrift of Luton, Preston and Derby, and two behind Stoke. Derby play Luton, which adds to the intrigue and means Hull will definitely stay up if they win at Portsmouth.

Referee Darren Bond (Lancashire)

Playoff permutations

In short, all five teams in contention need to win to be guaranteed a playoff place. But a draw or even a defeat could be enough for some teams. The fact two of the contenders have extremely tough games – Millwall are at Burnley, Blackburn at Sheff Utd – means even ninth-placed Middlesbrough have a realistic chance of qualifying if they win at Coventry.

Bristol City are in pole position, aka fifth, and will be guaranteed a playoff semi-final against Sunderland if they win. They could theoretically lose and still make the cut.
