Barnsley v Middlesbrough

Middlesbrough have been pretty relentless since Chris Wilder's arrival in November and they can post a tenth win in 14 league games at the expense of relegation-threatened hosts Barnsley, who are nine points adrift of safety.

Nottingham Forest v Bristol City

Playoff-chasing Nottingham Forest have lost once in nine games and shouldn't have too many problems at home to Bristol City, who have tasted defeat on eight of their last ten road trips.

Lincoln v Gillingham

Dismal home form has impacted on Lincoln's season, but the Imps have been getting key players back from injury and should brush aside second-bottom Gillingham, who have gone ten games without an away success.

Oxford v Cambridge

Oxford were below their best when winning 1-0 at Crewe on Tuesday but they are fourth in League One and should have too much quality for mid-table Cambridge, who haven't won any of their last five away games.
