West Bromwich Albion would be promoted if the Championship follows the precedent set by League Two clubs.
In a landmark decision today, League Two clubs have unanimously voted to end their season early, two months after fixtures were suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic.
An indicative vote decided that three clubs will be automatically promoted to League One as usual, the play-offs will still take place to decide the fourth promotion place and no side will be relegated to the National League.
The final league table is set to be decided using a points-per-game method which some clubs wish to be weighted and others unweighted.
If either system was applied to decide the Championship, Albion would be promoted to the Premier League behind Leeds United.
League Two clubs have either nine or 10 matches left to play while every second tier side has nine fixtures remaining.
