    Tim Coleman: Pitch inspection photo is Bradford. Good luck telling the Plymouth fans if the game is off there...the coaches left Devon at 5.30am

    Take a bow, Tim, if there was a prize it would be heading your way (there isn't).

    Hull City 0-0 Leeds

    Hull win a throw in deep in Leeds territory and Callum Elder hurls it in towards Josh Magennis.

    He gets a flick on but there's no home players gambling on it and it goes out for a goal kick.

    It would be pretty generous to say that Hull City are going through a rough time right now.

    Grant McCann's men have not since 1 January, lost star forward Jarrod Bowen on transfer deadline day and have slipped to just five points above the relegation zone.

    Oh, and they've got an absolutely huge injury list.

    Far from ideal then that they're playing second-placed Leeds today then.

    Can the Tigers spring a surprise or will the Whites boost their Premier League promotion hopes?

    Kick off coming up.

    Before we turn our attention to the action from Hull, you might have noticed the weather's been a bit of a recurring theme throughout February and, unsurprisingly, the month is ending with a bang too thanks to Storm Jorge.

    We've already lost four matches this afternoon, albeit one of those was postponed on Friday...

    • L1: Tranmere P-P Fleetwood
    • L2: Forest Green P-P Leyton Orient
    • L2: Mansfield P-P Swindon
    • L2: Stevenage P-P Walsall

    We'll keep you posted if there are any further casualties between now and kick-off.

    And, for an extra point, can you name the ground in the picture above? There's an inspection there at 13:00 GMT...

    A bit of news that you may have missed yesterday evening was Leeds goalkeeper Kiko Casilla being banned for eight games after being found guilty of racially abusing Charlton Athletic forward Jonathan Leko.

    The 33-year-old, who denied the charge, has also been ordered to attend a face-to-face education session.

    The incident took place in Charlton's win over the Whites on 28 September.

    "I do not feel at all that the guilty verdict is a clear reflection of the incident," Casilla said in a statement.

    The charge was found proven by an independent regulatory commission.

    Good afternoon and welcome to live text coverage of Saturday's EFL action.

    We've got 10 Championship games kicking off at 15:00 GMT with almost all of them having some bearing at the top or bottom of the table as well as (nearly) full sets of fixtures from Leagues One and Two.

    But, for starters, we're bringing you a Yorkshire derby between two teams who are after points for very different reasons.

    Hull City, winless in their past nine games and in danger of getting dragged into a relegation battle, host second-placed Leeds United.
