Burnley Moves to Top of Championship Table

Burnley secured their position at the top of the Championship table with a 2-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough, thanks to goals from Jaidon Anthony and Josh Brownhill. This win marked Burnley's seventh consecutive unbeaten match and moved them two points ahead of Sunderland, who were scheduled to play later. The match saw Sheffield Wednesday struggling to capitalize on their chances, with an early opportunity missed by Ike Ugbo and a free-kick from Barry Bannan that failed to convert. Meanwhile, Sunderland's hopes for promotion were dampened as West Bromwich Albion drew 1-1 against Oxford United, allowing Burnley to leapfrog them. Leeds United also put forth a strong performance, defeating Sheffield United 2-0, keeping them in contention for promotion. Watford faced a setback, losing 3-0 to Luton Town, further complicating their pursuit of a playoff spot.
