THE Championship has reached its last day and still there is little to separate Cardiff and Fulham in the battle for second place.
Wolves have won the league and either the Bluebirds or the Cottagers will join them in winning automatic promotion.
Fulham ground out a 2-1 win over Sunderland last Friday, but then Cardiff responded with a 2-0 victory at Hull to gain the edge going into the final day.
Here is all you need to know as the race for promotion goes to the wire.
What do Cardiff need to do to win promotion to the Premier League?
Cardiff have their fate in their own hands going into the final day - all they have to do is match Fulham's result.
A win will guarantee the Bluebirds only their second top flight campaign in 57 years next season.
If Cardiff draw, Fulham must fail to win at Birmingham and if Cardiff lose, Fulham must also lose.
