Sim is joined by Andy Hinchcliffe on this week's episode of Essential EFL to take a look at the big talking points in the Championship.
They discuss West Ham and Birmingham's form towards the top of the table - could both sides find themselves back in the Premier League next season?
They also chat about the recent struggles at Derby and Preston and analyse whether either team can turn things around and move out of the bottom three.
Plus, Hinchy makes his predictions for the four games you can watch live on Sky Sports over the weekend - Bolton vs Middlesbrough, Charlton vs Norwich, Portsmouth vs Millwall and Sheffield United vs Derby.
