EFL Extra: "Easter weekend is big!"

THE TIMES
About this episode

Tom Clarke and and former EFL player Gregor Robertson with all the latest from the football League. 


Easter is always pivotal. With two rounds of matches in the space for four days the promotion and relegation picture will be a lot clearer come next Tuesday.

Which teams have the biggest fixtures over Easter? In the Championship Middlesborough home to Millwall on Friday lunchtime is huge, it's a big week for Southampton with Arsenal in the cup followed by the two teams below them Wrexham and Derby. At the bottom Portsmouth have a very tough run of games, starting with two relegation rivals.

In League One do the teams on bad runs have a big enough cushion...Bolton, Bradford and Stockport are looking over their shoulders at Plymouth and Stevenage.

Almost the entire top eight in League Two still have to play each other...it is far from sorted.


We'll be back next week for a bonus episode to review a busy Easter weekend.
