Reading v Derby

Derby are one of a number of sides in the mix for the League One title and the Rams, who have lost just once in the league since October 28, can climb to the summit of the third tier with victory at troubled Reading.

Morecambe v Crewe

Crewe are up to fourth in League Two after a four-game winning sequence and they can move into the automatic promotion places by defeating Morecambe.

MK Dons v AFC Wimbledon

MK Dons have taken 26 points from 13 games under Mike Williamson's stewardship and they can add another three points to their tally against rivals AFC Wimbledon.

Braga v Sporting

Portuguese powerhouses Sporting have won their last four matches by an aggregate scoreline of 17-3 and are a nice price to win their League Cup semi-final with Braga.
