A further fixture for the Easter weekend may follow.

The EFL and Sky are currently working to a rolling five-week minimum commitment as the crunch part of the season approaches. Further fixtures for April will be announced as they are confirmed.

This process is part of the EFL's joint commitment with Sky to ensure all clubs and supporters are given a minimum of five weeks' notice ahead of any matches being rescheduled for live television coverage. The advanced notice is designed to provide supporters with as much time as possible to allow for any alterations to travel plans that may be required.
