Confirming the venue for a game a mere 48 hours in advance doesn't exactly suggest an air of stability.

Sadly, it's another sign of the trouble Coventry are experiencing with the Coventry Building Society Arena.

But on the field, things are looking up for the Sky Blues.

They'd won three straight games before being held to a draw by Rotherham in midweek.

And they will fancy their chances against Blackpool who are muddling away 18th in the table but did whack Preston 4-2 last Saturday.

With QPR fluffing their lines last night, it gives Burnley the chance to move further clear at the top of the Championship.

Their two results in the past week were especially encouraging, managing to win when twice it seemed they were likely to drop points.

First they rallied from two down at Sunderland last Saturday.

Then in midweek, they found a late goal to get past Norwich.

Reading enjoyed a smart start to the season before slipping badly with three straight defeats.

That run was brought to an end with victory over Bristol City last Saturday.

Can Paul Ince's side cause some problems at Turf Moor today?

Let's take a look at what we've got to look forward to today across the English Football League..

So Sheffield United have wrapped up an easy three points in the lunchtime game.

Let's see how the two sides playing above them in the table - Burnley and Blackburn - fare in the 15.00BST games.

Carlos Corberan's start to life as West Brom boss begins with a real whimper. A reality check for the Spaniard.

Sheffield United cruise to three points thanks to those early goals from Iliman Ndiaye and Oli McBurnie.

How often do you say that in this division?

Well into injury time as the Blades are moments away from a first win in seven games.

A great ball across from John Swift and fellow sub Brandon Thomas-Asante can't get the necessary touch.

Then from another attack, Thomas-Asante can't convert another chance from barely two yards out as Anel Ahmedhodzic gets on the line to block.

If this result stays the same, Sheffield United will remain fourth ahead of the 15:00 BST games, but they will be only one point behind QPR, who lost at Birmingham last night.

If Huddersfield beat Millwall at the John Smith's Stadium, then West Brom will be bottom of the Championship this evening.

A substitution for either team.

West Brom have Brandon Thomas-Asante on in place of Taylor Gardner-Hickman.

For Sheffield United, Enda Stevens is back from injury to replace Chris Basham.

Jayson Molumby stings the palms of Adam Davies with a drive from outside the box.

Both him and John Swift have added something off the bench for the Baggies.

David Ljunggren: Someone should tell West Brom that Halloween isn’t till Monday. They all look as though they are pretending to be zombies.

Another shuffle of the West Brom pack. Conor Townsend off and Adam Reach on.

Bad fortune for Rhian Brewster as his hamstring goes when in full flight. His afternoon is a short one as Billy Sharp comes on.

And there is a change at the back as Jack Robinson replaces George Baldock.

Good effort from John Swift as he takes aim from 20 yards. He gets his shot up and over the defence but he is narrowly wide of the top corner.

This second period has been better from West Brom, but without really threatening a comeback.

Matt Phillips gets down the line and whizzes over a terrific low ball but Karlan Grant can't make contact and Sheffield United clear the danger.

That was a bit more like it with 20 minutes to go.

Jayson Molumby has a go from 25 yards and the substitute whistles one not far wide. Adam Davies was sufficiently worried enough to launch into a full length dive.

Can the Baggies up the tempo and build up a late head of steam?

The first shuffle of the pack for the visitors as striker Rhian Brewster comes on for midfielder John Fleck.

That feels quite bold from Paul Heckingbottom with his side already two goals up.

All square at Ashton Gate.

Tommy Conway's close-range low strike gave Bristol City the lead, but Olivier Ntcham's second-half volley has gifted Swansea a point.

Swansea drop a place to fifth as things stand, with Sheffield United beating West Brom. Bristol City are up to 13th before the 15:00 BST kick-offs get going.

Four minutes added on at Ashton Gate.

What late drama do we have in store?

More good play from Iliman Ndiaye - he has looked a cut above today - as he slips a two-yard pass into Tommy Doyle's path and the on-loan Manchester City midfielder hits a rasping drive just over the bar from 20 yards.
