sport news Bank holiday bonanza: Norwich, Luton and Leyton Orient on the brink in day of ...

It promises to be a manic Monday in the EFL with plenty of promotion and relegation matters to be decided. Sportsmail takes you through all the permutations in all three divisions, plus the National League.

CHAMPIONSHIP

Isn’t it a big day in Yorkshire?

YES, SHEFFIELD UNITED have the opportunity to move three points ahead of LEEDS UNITED in the battle for the second automatic promotion place when they play at Hull at 3pm.

Norwich could seal their return to the Premier League with a win at Stoke City

Victory for Chris Wilder’s side would pile the pressure on Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds ahead of their teatime match at Brentford.

The two Yorkshire rivals have been engaged in a nip and tuck battle for automatic promotion for several months.

And can NORWICH CITY seal promotion on Monday?

YES, the leaders, who start the day five points ahead of the Blades and Leeds, will go up if they win at Stoke and either of their promotion rivals drop points.

And if they both fail to win, the Canaries will clinch the title with victory.

However, given that the Leeds game won’t finish until around 7pm, there’s a chance NORWICH fans travelling back from Stoke will be forced to celebrate the moment of promotion on the motorway home.

Norwich’s chances of victory will be boosted by the return from a three-game suspension of Argentine star Emiliano Buendia. It’s no coincidence that Norwich have failed to win in his absence.

‘He’s a big important player for us and in the three games without him we couldn’t manage to win,’ said Norwich midfielder Mario Vrancic.

Can anyone secure play-off spots on Monday?

ONLY WEST BROM, with the Baggies travelling to Reading for a 3pm kick-off. MIDDLESBROUGH moved back in to the final play-off spot on Friday but they’re just a point ahead of BRISTOL CITY, who retain a game in hand. DERBY, who are three points off sixth, could also still sneak in as they have played one game fewer.

And at the bottom?

IPSWICH and BOLTON already know they will be playing League One football next season.

The third relegated team looks likely to be either ROTHERHAM or MILLWALL. The Millers are three points adrift of safety and host Birmingham today while Millwall still have a game in hand.

LEAGUE ONE

LUTON must be all but up?

YES. LUTON, a non-League club as recently as 2014, are poised to return to the Championship for the first time since 2007.

They don’t play until Tuesday night when they host AFC Wimbledon and with their
