Nuno Espirito Santo’s side had two men sent off but are edging ever closer to a return to the top-flight after six years away, with the Bluebirds near-certain to join them. Wins over Middlesbrough and Burton Albion respectively kept the Championship’s top two well clear of the chasing pack, but the play-off picture is increasingly muddled. Fulham and Aston Villa appear likely to take two of the four spots available, but below them it is all to play for in the closing weeks of the campaign....
