The race for promotion to the Premier League is shaping up to be a cracker! With just 11 games left there are still several teams fighting for automatic promotion, not to mention several vying for a play-off berth.The top spot is heldby Burnleyhowever Middlesbrough, Hull and Brighton are all within touching distance. Derby find themselves safely in fifth place whilst Sheffield Wednesday, holding the final play-off spot, areunder pre sure from Cardiff, Birmingham and Ipswich,snapping at the final play-off position. So whos got what it takes to go up?BurnleyAfter beating Lancashire rivals Blackburn, the Clarets leapfrogged Middlesbrough to go top of the Championship table. Albeit with boro and third place Hull with a game in hand. But having gone 12 league games unbeaten they seem firmly in-place to bounce straight back into the Premier League.Burnley have recovered spectacularly from a poor slump earlier in the season and are the divisions top scorers with 54 goals, 21 of those from summer signing Andre Gray. The former Brentford man faced a daunting task to replace the departing Danny Ings but has thrived under Sean Dyche, already bettering his goal Carlos Hyde Jersey tally from last year.Burnleys experience of Championship promotion could be a deciding factor in the promotion race: the clarets have twice been promoted from the division most recently in 2014, with several players from that side still in the squad, not to mention manager Sean Dyche.MiddlesbroughHaving won 8 from a po sible 9 games it appeared as if Middlesbrough were running away with the title in 2 months ago. Then came disappointing lo ses against Bristol City and Nottingham Forest, which knocked boros momentum. Following this were three draws against largely average side, giving their rivals a perfect opportunity to catch them, which were taken.Middlesbrough have managed to recover their form of late and are just a point of Burnley with a game in hand. Boro have been solid at the back this year having conceded just 20 goals all season, the joint best record in the division, its their goal scorers that have let them down, no player has scored more than 7 league goals for them this term.In an attempt to end their lack of goals, boro signed Jordan Rhodes in January, for a substantial 9 million. As of yet, Rhodes hasnt lived up to his hefty price tag, scoring just once in 7 appearances. Despite this, the scot still has time to find form before Chad Henne Jersey the end of the season and combining the leagues best defence with one of the most prolific strikers in the country, would make Middlesbrough a force to be reckoned with.Hull CityIt was largely unfortunate that Hull were relegated from the premier league last year; injuries played a key part, take 6 million signing Robert Snodgra s who was ruled out after just one game into the 2014/15 season. Consideringthat, it is hardly unexpected to find the Tigers sitting near the top of the table, potentially going straight back into the top division.Little over a week ago, Hull sat at the top of the table, but a draw and a lo s against Sheffield Wednesday and Birmingham means they now find themselves 4 points off Burnley.City, however, have undoubtedly got one of the strongest squads in the promotion race. They ooze with premier league quality from all departments. Take Abel Hernandez, with 24capsfor Uruguay and experience in both the Premier League and Serie A, it could be expected he would shine in the Championship. Steve Bruce has done well to retain thelikes of Hernandez, as well as signing newplayers like Sam Clucas and Moses Odubajo, all of whom have performed well. Hull may now be behind Burnley and Middlesbrough, but with so many pundits and managers citing them as the the best team in the league its hard to see what will stop them in putting in a real challenge.Brighton and Hove AlbionAfter going an exceptional 21 games unbeaten from the start of the season, Brighton have been the surprise package of the division this year, rising spectacularly from a 20th place position last year. Despite a short blip around Damien Wilson Jersey the new year in which the Seagulls lost 3 consecutive games, Brighton have been good value for money losing on just two other occasions.Chris Hughton has done a great job of transforminga side many people expected to be fighting for relegation to a team surely nailed on for a play-off spot. The former Newcastle manager took over from Sami Hyppia in December 2014, with the team in the championship drop zone, he saved the club from relegation and is now leading them on the way to gain their first ever promotion to the premier league.Albion were joined by club icon and former England striker Bobby Zamora in the summer. Zamoras hit 7 goals and has tasted championship play- Kendall Fuller Jersey off succe swith QPR in 2014, experience that may well be needed.Derby CountyAs Derby County went on an eight game winle s run, many fans would surely be thinkinghere we go again. Last year the Rams mi sed out on the play-offs finishing eighth, despite being top at Christmas. Derby suffered a similar situation in the 2013-14 season and somemay have had a sense ofdae ja vu.Fortunately for the Rams theyre still in with a shot. Eyebrows were raised after manager Paul Clement was sacked but Darren Wa sall has recently improved form, suggesting that Derby are all but finished. Chris Martin has returned to form and the prolific striker will surely play an important role in Derbys push for the automatic places.Derby will remain in fifth place for at least another Reggie Ragland Jersey set of matches, however. They are four points off Brighton and five points ahead of Sheffield Wednesday in sixth. With 11 games left it will be difficult for Derby to close the seven point gap between them and 2nd place, but it will also be difficult for them to be caught by any of the chasing pack. Considering this, its likely to be a play-off position for the Rams. Their last appearance in the play-offs ended in Wembley heartbreak against QPR, a feat Derby will be hoping to avoid this time round.Sheffield WednesdayA four game winle s run may have scuppered Wednesdays brief hope at an automatic spot. The owls are now 12 points off Middlesbrough in second and may count themselves lucky to retain the final play-off spot with three teams all within one point of the Yorkshire club.A play-off position would show great improvement for Wednesday, who are currently on track to record their highest league position in 16 years. Under Stuart Gray the owls showed solidity but lacked fire power up front. Carlos Carvalhal, however has changed that with Wednesday playing some of the most attractive football in the division, scoring 50 goals in the proce s.The strike force of Fernando Forestieri and Gary Hooper has proved highly succe sful since, the latter arrived at the end of October, scorin
