Karl Robinson will face his former side when Charlton welcome MK Dons to the Valley. His old club are well placed to stay in League 1 but the Addicks are just four points clear of the bottom four and in despite need of the points.
Rochdale look set to stay in League 1 with the play-offs too far off to mount a challenge. Visitors Port Vale would happily settle for the same status – Vale moved out of the relegation zone with a weekend win that took them two points clear of the bottom four.
Five without a win – the last three have been lost – has seen Shrewsbury drop back into the relegation zone when safety previously looked very much on for the Shrews. Millwall’s play-off bid was revived with a weekend win but the Lions are three points off Southend.
Southend’s superior goal difference will keep them in sixth whatever the result but if Phil Brown can lead the Shrimpers to a win against an old club Bolton this advantage will stay at three points, at least. The Trotters are seven points clear of Fleetwood in the second automatic place and six points off leaders Sheffield United.
Wednesday will see beaten EFL Trophy finalists Oxford look for a reaction against promotion chasing Fleetwood. A U’s win could keep them in with a chance of making the play-offs with the Cod Army looking increasingly likely for this route too after dropping out of automatic contention.
Sheffield United are a near certainty to secure promotion back to the Championship with a win against struggling Coventry increasing the likelihood of this being as champions. The Sky Blues have won their last two in League 1 – and secured the EFL Trophy on Sunday – but with the bottom side 13 points from safety they’re set to drop into the basement league.
It goes without saying the expectation; most definitely the hope at least, will be for a positive result. But will this happen? We’ll find out soon enough.
