Leeds United regained top spot in the Championship with a 2-0 win over Norwich City on Wednesday.

Daniel Farke's men had been displaced at the summit the previous night when Sheffield United came from behind to beat 10-man Swansea City.

Leeds required no such heroics to move back into first place, though, leading from the very first minute thanks to Manor Solomon's opener in the 31st second.

It remained 1-0 until just past the hour mark, but another telling contribution from Solomon made the game safe as he teed up Dan James for the second.

Leeds moved a point above Sheff United but still remain only three points clear of Burnley, who thrashed Plymouth Argyle 5-0 away from home.

All five Burnley goals came in the first half as Zian Flemming and Josh Laurent each netted braces before Josh Cullen added the fifth.

Although there was no further score after the break, that brutal opening period made for another dismal evening for the Championship's bottom side.

While Plymouth remain deep in trouble, Portsmouth are threatening to pull clear of danger after a second straight win.

Pompey beat Stoke City 3-1 and are up to 18th, above their opponents by a point and still with a game in hand over several sides around them.

Elsewhere, Sheffield Wednesday were held to a 2-2 draw by Bristol City.
