    So that's it for today's EFL action.

    Brighton are back on top of the Championship, as the Seagulls marked Chris Hughton's 100th league match in charge with a 2-0 win at Barnsley.

    Elsewhere, Huddersfield, Millwall and Oxford did the EFL proud in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

    Huddersfield held Manchester City to a goalless draw, Oxford were denied a replay by a late Middlesbrough goal, and Millwall knocked out the Premier League champions Leicester.

    Thanks for your company today. Hope you can join us again soon.

    Championship club Wolves caused one of the biggest FA Cup upsets of the season when they won at Liverpool in round four.

    If anything, their task in the fifth round is even harder. Can they knock out Premier League leaders Chelsea, who have picked a very strong starting line-up at Molineux?

  3. Differing fortunespublished at 17:10 Greenwich Mean Time 18 February 2017

    Monday: Newcastle v Aston Villa (20:00 GMT)

    Two of the clubs that were relegated from the Premier League last season have had vastly differing experiences of the Championship in 2016-17.

    Newcastle spent big and it worked - they're in a strong position to go up automatically, although they're down to second spot after Brighton's victory today.

    Aston Villa spent even bigger and it didn't - they're in danger of being dragged right into a relegation battle.

    Can Steve Bruce's side arrest their slide? Or will the Magpies move another step closer to the top flight? We'll have live text and BBC Radio 5 live sports extra commentary on the BBC Sport website and app from 19:30 GMT on Monday.

    Disaster for League Two's bottom two sides late on, with Newport collapsing from 2-0 up to a 3-2 defeat at Cambridge, and Notts County scoring a late winner at 23rd-placed Leyton Orient.

    Barnet were unable to hold on to their 1-0 lead against Portsmouth in Kevin Nugent's first game in charge, Conor Chaplin scoring Pompey's equaliser late on.

    Leaders Doncaster draw 1-1 with fourth-placed Luton, and it's the same score for second-placed Plymouth at Hartlepool.

    That allows Carlisle to close the gap to the Pilgrims to just three points, as they win 2-1 at play-off chasing Wycombe. 

    • Accrington 2-1 Colchester
    • Barnet 1-1 Portsmouth
    • Blackpool 2-2 Crewe
    • Cambridge 3-2 Newport
    • Cheltenham 2-0 Yeovil

    The top two in League Two haven't found it easy today, but both sides are level as they enter the closing stages.

    Matty Kennedy has scored to put second-placed Plymouth back on terms at Hartlepool, while Doncaster's Alfie May makes it 1-1 against fourth-placed Luton.

    Meanwhile, Kevin Nugent's first game as Barnet boss could be set to end in victory, as Mauro Vilhete has made it 1-0 late on against play-off hopefuls Portsmouth.

    Struggling Leyton Orient have scored again as well, Teddy Mezague making it 2-2 at home to Notts County.

    He wasn't smiling earlier, but Phil Parkinson will be sporting a very wide grin now as Bolton have come from 2-0 down to level the scores with his former club Bradford.

    Gary Madine has got the Trotters' second at Valley Parade.

    Better news too for Bury manager Lee Clark in his first game in charge, with opponents Chesterfield having a man sent off before Andrew Tutte fires in for the Shakers from 30 yards out to make it 1-1.

    There are still 10 minutes left for the hosts to find a winner in that one.

    Sheffield United are being frustrated in their search for a win at home to 10-man Scunthorpe, their closest promotion challengers.

    Caolan Lavery has replaced James Hanson up front for the Blades, who began five points clear at the top of the table.
