Coming up in League Onepublished at 12:35 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2020
On FA Cup second-round weekend, we've got just two games in the third tier today, but there's plenty riding on both of them.
Fifth-placed Ipswich could move level with second-placed Peterborough if the Tractor Boys can beat Charlton.
Meanwhile, if either of Oxford or Swindon suffer a heavy defeat in their head-to-head meeting today, they'd drop in to the relegation zone on goal-difference.
- Ipswich v Charlton (15:00 GMT)
- Oxford v Swindon (15:00)

Former Bristol City midfielder on BBC Radio BristolReading will be disappointed that, after such a good start, they've come off the pace a bit.
This will be an interesting game and I think we could see goals today.

Reading v Bristol City (12:30 GMT)
Image source, .Our early kick-off this afternoon involves two of the sides who made the strongest starts to the Championship season and find themselves separated by just one point in the table.
However, seventh-placed Reading have lost four of their past five games without a victory since sitting top of the tree in October.
In contrast, visitors Bristol City have won three of their past four without loss to move up to third.

Image source, Rex FeaturesIt's been a long, long wait but the return of *some* fans to English Football League games is now less than a week away. Hang in there, everybody. We're getting closer and closer.
For today at least, all teams are still playing behind closed doors, but we have still got 14 cracking-looking EFL fixtures coming up over the next five hours.
Strap yourselves in for another bumper Saturday of tension, drama and lots of goals.
