Round-up: The Championship's weekend action concluded with two games that took place today, starting off in the South West, as an out-of-form Bristol City hosted Sheffield Wednesday. In the end, it was the away side who prevailed in a 2-1 win thanks to goals from Connor Wickham and Massimo Luongo, and although Nahki Wells halved the deficit, Sheffield Wednesday held on for the win which means Bristol City are now winless in 7 league matches either side of the lockdown period. The second match played saw promotion contenders Nottingham Forest host struggling Huddersfield Town. In the end, it was the promotion contenders who triumphed as Nottingham Forest recorded a 3-1 win thanks to a Lewis Grabban brace followed by a Ryan Yates goal, whilst Karlan Grant bagged a late consolation for Huddersfield from the penalty spot, in a result which enabled Nottingham Forest to leapfrog Fulham in fourth on goal difference. Meanwhile, Huddersfield Town remain in the relegation zone, level on points but with inferior goal difference to Hull City who themselves are just above the relegation zone.
