Follow live coverage as Millwall take on Sheffield United in the Championship today.

An increasingly competitive second tier in English football remains intense and exciting competition, with the prize of a place in the Premier League on offer at the end of the season.

Relegation from the top flight last season means Luton, Burnley and Sheffield United are all back in the second tier this season and should at least push for the play-off places, as should Norwich City, an improving and beaten Coventry. Leeds United, play-off finalists. At the other end of the table, Wayne Rooney is aiming to revive Plymouth’s fortunes after narrowly avoiding relegation last year, with Portsmouth and Derby the promoted sides from League One alongside play-off winners Oxford.
