Coventry v Reading

The race for Championship playoff places remains wide open and Coventry can improve their chances with a home win over relegation-threatened Reading.

Bolton v Shrewsbury

League One playoff chasers Bolton have had to contend with a few injuries but they are unbeaten in five and can get the better of mid-table Shrewsbury, who have taken just one point from their last six games.

Hartlepool v Crawley

Hartlepool's clash with Crawley could have a huge impact on the League Two relegation battle and a precious three points could go the way of Pools, who are unbeaten in their last five home fixtures.

Stockport v Rochdale

Stockport's League Two automatic promotion hopes have faded but they have work to do to secure a playoff place and should clinch a comfortable victory over Rochdale, who are one bad result away from relegation to the National League.
