The Emirates FA Cup brought a lot of attention to football fans, leaving less focus on some incredible matches in the EFL Championship.

The first set to fixtures took place on Tuesday night due to teams playing their games in hand, or competing in the league midweek before a cup game on a weekend.

Mohamed Toure brought delight to Norwich City fans as he scored a hat-trick in The Canaries 3-0 away victory against Oxford United.

Southampton came back from 3-0 down to snatch three points right at the end with a 4-3 win at the King Power as Leicester City were on the receiving end on of the best games of second tier English football this season.

While the West Midlands derby was rather feisty, the game ended with no goals as Birmingham City drew 0-0 with West Brom.

On Wednesday night, Tyreece Campbell’s 81st minute strike was enough for Charlton Athletic to take three points in a 1-0 win against Stoke City.

On Saturday, Mathias Jorgensen scored a brace to help Blackburn win 3-1 away at Loftus Road against Queens Park Rangers to lift themselves out of the relegation zone.

Millwall came from behind to earn a quick turn-around, scoring two goals in two minutes to defeat Sheffield Wednesday 2-1, placing themselves three points away from the top two.

Goals from Rhian Brewster and Patrick Agyemang moved Derby County in the play-offs after a 2-0 triumph against Swansea City.

Preston North End and Watford ended level in a 2-2 draw as both teams still contest for a play-off position, despite a poor run in their last five games.

Andre Brooks scored in the 91st minute to give Sheffield United a late 1-0 victory over Portsmouth, leaving Pompey one point a drift from relegation.

A huge clash at the top of the table between Coventry City and Middlesbrough is set to take place on Monday night.
