I don't know what Burton and Lincoln players had for Christmas dinner yesterday and I probably shouldn't speculate... but whatever the Brewers had looks to have done the trick.

They are now 3-0 up against the Imps after Victor Adeboyejo's penalty.

Wycombe have levelled it up at home to Bristol Rovers, midfielder David Wheeler with the goal.

Sheffield United's Billy Sharp meets a free-kick and rattles the the bar with a header from close range!

Ben Sheaf is crucially then on hand to help clear the danger with a tackle after the ball rebounded out.

Bright enough start at the New York but not much in the way of chances as yet. Liam Delap is already a key figure for the Potters but Viktor Johansson in the Millers goal has yet to be really tested yet.

Ben Woodburn threatens for Preston as he meets a neatly lifted ball from Ched Evans in the box.

The finish, however, is just wide of the mark

Wigan keeper Jamie Jones is called into action at the other end, Duncan Watmore's curling effort is heading in until the keeper tips the ball over the bar. The corner comes to nothing.

Me a few minutes ago: "All is not well at Sheffield Wednesday just now."

Sheffield Wednesday: "... And I took that personally."

The Owls have levelled at Fleetwood through George Byers' instinctive finish after Marvin Johnson had flashed a shot towards goal after Barry Bannan's corner was half-cleared.

Chance for the Latics, Nathan Broadhead's shot is saved by Zack Steffen with the follow-up from Thelo Aasgard blocked by Darragh Lenihan.

There haven't been any big early moments of note at Bramall Lane.

The second-placed Blades will be wanting to keep the pressure on leaders Burnley, who are in action tomorrow.

Coventry have reorganised well after suffering the early injury setback.

Just the one goal in League Two so far.

It's gone to Harrogate and striker Luke Armstrong.

They lead Grimsby 1-0 and could be on for a third straight win.

The bad weather and an FA Cup tie in between means that run actually stretches back to 19 November.

A corner from City's Kai Naismith is diverted onto the crossbar by a Baggies defender. The Robins are seeking to extend a 25-match, 60-year unbeaten run at home on Boxing Day, remember!

All is not well at Sheffield Wednesday just now, despite their lofty position.

The Owls started today in third and are unbeaten in 10 but they've drawn their past three to drop off the pace set by the top two.

Things not going any better today either, as they trail Fleetwood 1-0 through Shaun Rooney's crisp strike.

Elsewhere, struggling Burton are now 2-0 up at home to Lincoln City.

Hull have the first big chance of the game deflected wide.

Ozan Tufan pulls the ball back for Alfie Jones, whose shot is blocked before running out of play.

Preston's Ben Woodburn sends Huddersfield an early warning shot.

From 30 yards out he lines up a free-kick and takes aim at the top right corner. His effort, however, is over the bar.

Few early goals in the third tier.

In-form Bristol Rovers are a goal to the good at Wycombe, thanks to Josh Coburn's strike.

Elsewhere, lowly Burton lead Lincoln City 1-0 through a goal from defender Sam Hughes and James Norwood has given Barnsley the lead at Accrington.

The Tykes have won their past five. Can they make it six today?

Baggies keeper Alex Palmer flies off his line to thwart Tommy Conway, who had latched onto a through ball from Nakhi Wells. Bright start from the Robins.

Coventry City have suffered an early setback against Sheffield United.

Callum O'Hare attempts to control a ball over the top, but hits the floor in pain. He knows it's not good straight away, it seems.

After receiving treatment, he is helped off the pitch and is replaced by Kasey Palmer.

The winner of today's clash between Carlisle United and Bradford City at Brunton Park, or the hosts if it ends all square, can spend Boxing Day evening in League Two's top seven - but the appeal of the fixture doesn't end there.

The competitive nature of the EFL's basement tier is such that seven other teams are within six points of the play-off places, so even 15th-placed Tranmere and 14th-placed Grimsby could move within four points of the top seven, should the action in Cumbria end honours even - so this game really is the centrepiece of the play-off scramble.

Carlisle are hoping to start another unbeaten run, after their last one was ended at five games on Tuesday, after a 2-1 loss to promotion rivals Northampton - Paul Simpson's side will need to iron out those defensive imperfections lingering from midweek.

Bradford, meanwhile, are masters of the road having won six of their 10 away league games, as Andy Cook returns to his old stomping ground as the league's joint-top goalscorer.

Reward for the victors will be high, but anyone down to 15th could profit from a share of the spoils if they hold their own side of the bargain.
