EFL to accommodate changes to kick-off times this weekend to avoid a clash with England's World Cup quarter-final against France
The Europeans played a gritty quarter-final with wins over Poland and Senegal on Sunday and will now compete for a place in the semi-finals in Qatar on Saturday at 7 pm.
The Championship is in full action this weekend with Sheffield United hosting Huddersfield Town at 3 pm on Saturday and Middlesbrough hosting Luton Town at home. Rotherham United host Bristol City in South Yorkshire with kick-off at 12:30 pm.
In League One, Sheffield Wednesday makes an extended trip to Exeter City while Barnsley takes on Oxford United at the Kasam Stadium. Harrogate Town has a home game with Northampton Town which they move to until 1 pm while Doncaster Rovers are on the road at Newport County.
The FA has told clubs it will work to change kick-off times so fans can watch England in Qatar - as long as both clubs mutually agree to the changes. Bradford City and Hull City are unlikely to face any changes to their fixture schedules as both clubs play on Sunday.
