• Leicester beat Huddersfield; Ipswich held again at Stoke
• Plymouth and Watford begin 2024 with goal-laden match

Leicester extended their lead at the top of the Championship to 10 points after thrashing struggling Huddersfield 4-1. Tom Cannon scored twice and Ricardo Pereira and Stephy Mavididi were also on the scoresheet as Enzo Maresca’s side continued their seemingly unstoppable march towards promotion back to the Premier League.

Nearest rivals Ipswich were held to a second successive 0-0 draw at 10-man Stoke, who had Jordan Thompson sent off for a second bookable offence midway through the second half.
