"Six teams have previously reached or exceeded 100 points in a Championship campaign: Burnley and Leeds last season, the Clarets also in 2022-23, Leicester City in 2013-14, Newcastle United in 2009-10 and Reading's record-breaking 106-point side of 2005-06."
"Only Fulham have breached the 100-goal mark with 106 in 2021-22. It has been an astonishing season for the Sky Blues where club records have been falling left, right and centre."
"The pessimists among us thought their wobble in December and January would put paid to any automatic hopes, particularly when February began with a 0-0 draw at home to Oxford."
"Seven wins in the past eight has the finishing line tantalisingly close now, with Haji Wright, Ellis Simms and Brandon Thomas-Asante all into double figures."
The Championship run-in is set to be chaotic with seven games in 30 days for most teams. Clubs are under pressure to achieve their goals, whether that be automatic promotion, playoff spots, or avoiding relegation. Historical performance shows that six teams have reached or exceeded 100 points in a season, while only Fulham has scored over 100 goals. The Sky Blues have had a remarkable season, currently at 80 points and 81 goals, with a chance to break records despite earlier struggles.
