But with the impact of weather and coronavirus there is a huge variation in the number of games played between those aiming to reach the Championship.
There’s as many as five games difference among the top 12 sides, making points per game (PPG) the most accurate reflecting of how teams are performing in the third tier.
So we've worked out the PPG table for the top half of the league - and the outcome made for interesting viewing with plenty of variation from how things currently look.
We’ve listed the club and their position with their PPG and actual current standing in the table.
So check out the top-half PPG table and get a steer on who’s really performing in League One.
