Sheffield United v Reading

Sheffield United occupy the final playoff place in the Championship but there are a host of challengers waiting to pounce and the Blades can't afford to slip-up at home to Reading. They are unbeaten in 12 home league games (eight wins) and should outclass the Royals, who are fourth from bottom and have failed to win in nine of their last ten away fixtures.

Swansea v Barnsley

Swansea are clicking into gear as the Championship campaign nears its conclusion and they are fancied to push Barnsley closer to the drop. The possession-based Swans have taken 13 points from their last five fixtures while their struggling visitors have lost 14 of their last 16 away league games.

Sunderland v Shrewsbury

The fight for the League One playoff places is another intriguing heat but Sunderland can strengthen their top-six ambitions by beating Shrewsbury. The Black Cats are unbeaten in eight league games, including wins over leaders Wigan and playoff rivals Oxford, while the Shrews have failed to score in six of their last nine on the road.

Leyton Orient v Scunthorpe

Leyton Orient have won back-to-back home league games against Rochdale and Barrow and can make it a hat-trick over Scunthorpe, who could be relegated to the National League this weekend. The Iron have suffered six straight defeats and are 13 points adrift of survival.
