With Leeds United not playing until Sunday, Sheffield United took full advantage to move top of the Championship.

Harrison Burrows' brace sent Sheffield United back to the Championship summit following a 2-0 victory over Norwich City at Bramall Lane.

The full-back struck in each half as the Blades leapfrogged Leeds United, who play their rivals Sheffield Wednesday on Sunday.

Burrows broke the deadlock midway through the first half, controlling a clearance on his chest before firing home via both posts.

He doubled the lead and sealed the points from the penalty spot just before the hour mark, after Sam McCallum was fouled by Ben Chrisene.

Elsewhere, new West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Mowbray watched from the stands as they drew 1-1 with Midlands rivals Stoke City at the Hawthorns.

Grady Diangana cancelled out Nathan Lowe's earlier strike in what was the hosts' final match under caretaker manager Chris Brunt.

Watford moved level on points with sixth-placed West Brom, as goals from Imran Louza and Edo Kayembe sealed a 2-0 win over Derby County.

Meanwhile, Matt Bloomfield's Luton Town tenure began with a goalless draw with Preston North End that leaves the Hatters locked in the relegation zone.

Portsmouth moved above the Hatters on goal difference to 22nd after Matt Ritchie's brace saw them come from behind to beat Middlesbrough 2-1 at Fratton Park.
