Ten days to decide second place in the Championship?Image source, Getty ImagesImage caption, Ipswich and Middlesbrough drew 2-2 to keep the Championship promotion race bubblingByGlenn SpellerBBC Sport EnglandPublished12 minutes ago2 CommentsThe race for the second automatic promotion place in the Championship will be defined by what happens in the next 10 days, according to Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna and his opposite number at Middlesbrough, Kim Hellberg.With the sides sharing a 2-2 draw in a pulsating match at Portman Road on Sunday, Ipswich have sneaked back into second spot on goal difference from Millwall and one point ahead of Southampton. Potentially crucially, they also have a game in hand on their rivals."We have three away games in six days to finish the season so it's going to take an incredible effort from everyone to see if we can bring it back here [to Portman Road] for the final game," said McKenna.Ipswich have found life on the road difficult so far this season, with only eight wins from their 20 games, and visit Charlton on Wednesday before heading to West Brom next Saturday and a potentially season-deciding game at fourth-placed Southampton on Tuesday, 28 April."We've had periods where we've had some good away results - we've won at the team who are going to win the league this year but we know we've had results against teams where games have got away from us," added the Northern Irishman."We've shown a lot this season in taking steps forward, so to go and have to get results from three away games in six days we will need to take another step forward if we want to be successful."Image source, BBC Sport/Getty ImagesImage caption, Ipswich have three away games from their remaining four matchesWe have to win the next two games - HellbergImage source, BBC Sport/Getty ImagesImage caption, Middlesbrough have to win their next two games according to Kim HellbergFrom being two points ahead of prom...
