Leeds United duo Steve Evans and Mirco Antenucci are among the nominees for March's Manager and Player of the Month in the Championship.

Leeds United duo Steve Evans and Mirco Antenucci have been included in the shortlists for March's Manager and Player of the Month in the Championship.

Evans guided the Whites to three wins in four games to ease the club's relegation worries, while Antenucci ended his scoring drought with four goals in as many games.

Burnley and Rotherham United also have names on both four-man lists.

Sean Dyche helped the Clarets extend their lead at the top of the table with 10 points from a possible 12 and Sam Vokes matched Antenucci's total with four goals last month.

Neil Warnock steered Rotherham out of the bottom three with three wins in four games and Lee Frecklington was the Millers' star player, scoring the winner against high-flying Middlesbrough.

Cardiff City boss Russell Slade completes the manager shortlist, while Sheffield Wednesday defender Tom Lees is recognised for helping the Owls concede just one goal in March.

The winners will be announced tomorrow morning.
