Burnley tops Championship, extends unbeaten run to 29 matches

Burnley returned to the top of the English Championship with a 2-1 victory over Norwich City, extending their unbeaten run to 29 matches. First-half goals from Hannibal Mejbri and Jaidon Anthony set the Clarets on course for victory, with Mejbri scoring his first goal for the club following a well-placed pass from Josh Cullen. Norwich improved in the second half and pulled one back through Jack Stacey, but Burnley held firm to secure the win, moving three points clear of second-placed Leeds. The match showcased Burnley's strong attacking play, though they fell short of a 30th clean sheet this season, as they now focus on maintaining their promotion push. With this result, Burnley is five points ahead of third-placed Sheffield United in the race for automatic promotion back to the Premier League. Meanwhile, Norwich's defeat significantly hampers their chances of reaching the playoff spots.
