Sheffield United

Ipswich Town and Sheffield United face each other at Portman Road in the opening match of the Championship round 5.

Swansea

Legendary Hillsborough stadium will host Saturday’s Championship game between Sheffield Wednesday and Swansea City. The Owls did well to shock Premier League side Leeds United in the EFL Cup last 64, meaning that they are high on confidence ahead of Swansea’s visit.

Portsmouth and Preston square off against each other at Fratton Park in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Saturday’s program.

Coventry

Oxford United will try to claim a major scalp in the Championship round 4 when they face Coventry City on Saturday afternoon. The Yellows experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a massive EFL Cup loss (0-6) to Brighton and given their three-game losing run in the early stages of the new Championship season, home win should not be considered.
