Bristol City v West Ham Utd: live

West Ham could return to the Championship's automatic promotion zone tonight - if results go the right way.

A win for Sam Allardyce's side at Ashton Gate this evening - combined with defeat at Peterborough for Southampton - would almost certainly see the Hammers replace the Saints in the top two.

However defeat for United - or even a draw - against the Robins would almost certainly spell the end of the Irons' hopes of usurping Nigel Adkins' side, who have spent nearly the entire season in the promotion zone.

Live updates from Ashton Gate will be provided throughout the evening on our forum match thread, which may be found here: www.kumb.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=139839.
