    Stoke v Leeds (15:00 BST)

    More on Stoke's 18-year-old skipper Nathan Collins.

    He's a Republic of Ireland Under-19 international and this is his eighth game in professional football.

    He's tasked with leading the Potters to a first league win of the season against the league leaders. No pressure then.

    S Club 7 were number one in the UK with Don't Stop Movin' when he was born...

  10. Another crazy seven days at Boltonpublished at 14:54 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Bolton v Ipswich (15:00 BST)

    Bolton WanderersImage source, Rex Features

    It's been another turbulent week for Bolton Wanderers since their 5-0 loss at Tranmere last Saturday.

    On Monday it was announced that Tuesday's game against Doncaster was to be postponed amid welfare concerns for younger players.

    On Thursday manager Phil Parkinson and assistant Steve Parkin both resigned from their positions at the club.

    And yesterday former player Kevin Nolan declared an interest in the vacant manager position at the club.

    Still with us?

    Well today they're game is on, as the still managerless side host promotion-chasing Ipswich in League One.

  11. Luton in need of a victorypublished at 14:52 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Luton v Barnsley (15:00 BST)

    Sonny Bradley of Luton TownImage source, Rex Features

    Winless Luton haven't had much to shout about since a late equaliser against Middlesbrough to kick off the EFL season, seeing defeat in their last three games.

    They've not lost four consecutive league matches since April 2015, when they lost seven in a row in League Two under John Still.

    But the Hatters have a great chance today against a Barnsley side who've picked up just one point from their last three games.

  12. Williams not in squad for the Robinspublished at 14:50 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Ashley WilliamsImage source, Rex Features

    Bristol City fans will be boosted by the signing of Wales captain Ashley Williams on a short-term deal yesterday.

    The 34-year-old has twice been named in the PFA Championship Team of the Year (2009/10, 2010/11) but isn't in the squad today.

    The Robins are unbeaten in their previous four Championship meetings with Hull since losing 4-0 in April 2016.

  13. Can we play you every week?published at 14:48 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Blackburn v Cardiff (15:00 BST)

    Blackburn manager Tony MowbrayImage source, Rex Features

    Blackburn are winless in nine games against Cardiff in all competitions (W0 D4 L5) since a 3-2 victory in the FA Cup in January 2005.

    But Rovers fans can feel optimistic as their side come into the game off the back of three wins in their last three in all competitions.

    And they face a Cardiff side who have yet to pick up a point on the road this season. Is a first win in 14 years on the cards?

  14. Millwall looking to bounce backpublished at 14:46 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Middlesbrough v Millwall (15:00 BST)

    MillwallImage source, Rex Features

    Before Wednesday you wouldn't have said there was too much wrong with Millwall's start to the season.

    But a win at home to Sheffield Wednesday and a draw away to West Brom were overshadowed by a 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Fulham in midweek.

    It's the Lions' largest defeat in the Championship under Neil Harris, but three points away to Middlesbrough and you'd think all will be forgiven.

  15. Charlton looking strongpublished at 14:45 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Charlton v Brentford (15:00 BST)

    Lee BowyerImage source, Rex Features

    Who would have predicted that Charlton would be 5th in the Championship after four games?

    Lee Bowyer's side are one of just four to remain unbeaten so far in the division.

    And they'll fancy their chances against Brentford, who have scored a league-low two goals in 2019-20; their lowest total at this level since 1947-48.

  16. Sheffield Wednesday's bogey ground?published at 14:44 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Preston v Sheff Wed (15:00 BST)

    Preston have lost only one of their last 21 home league games against Sheffield Wednesday (W10 D10 L1), a 2-0 defeat in League One in December 2011.

    In fact, in the second tier, Sheffield Wednesday are winless at Deepdale since a 1-0 victory in October 1949.

    They have only played here at that level 16 times since mind.

  17. Fulham aim for four in a rowpublished at 14:42 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Fulham v Nottingham Forest (15:00 BST)

    Fulham are looking to win four consecutive league games for the first time since April 2018.

    Scott Parker's side smashed Millwall 4-0 in midweek with Wolves loanee Ivan Cavaleiro netting twice.

    They're taking on a Forest side who are unbeaten since an opening day loss to West Brom.

  18. Terriers target first winpublished at 14:38 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Huddersfield v Reading (15:00 BST)

    Huddersfield Town fans have endured a miserable 2019.

    They've seen their side finish bottom of the Premier League and win just once in 29 league games.

    They're under the caretaker management of Mark Hudson for the second time this year after Jan Siewert became the first manager to be sacked this season.

    Jack Butland has been dropped after conceding 10 goals from 14 shots on target this season

    Stoke City have endured a nightmare start to the season.

    The Potters have picked up just one point from their first four matches to sit bottom of the table.

    Boss Nathan Jones has dropped England international goalkeeper Jack Butland after saying "there must be something playing on his mind" after his two mistakes in the 3-1 midweek defeat at Preston.

    Butland is one of six players to lose their place after that showing, with 18-year-old Nathan Collins named skipper for the day.

    Leeds have enjoyed a far more serene start to the season and sit top of the table with 10 points from their four matches.

    They make one change from the midweek win over Brentford, Gaetano Berardi is in for injured skipper Liam Cooper. Pablo Hernandez takes the armband in the defender's absence.

    The Spaniard is 16 years older than the opposition's captain!

  20. Successive defeats for Impspublished at 14:34 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    FT: Doncaster 2-1 Lincoln

    Doncaster have recorded a narrow win over Lincoln in the early kick off in League One.

    Rovers took the lead through Niall Ennis before Jorge Grant levelled for the visitors but a late Jon Taylor goal won it for Rovers.

    The Imps have lost their past two games after winning their first three this season.

    Danny Cowley's side host Everton in the Carabao Cup second round on Wednesday.
