Team news: Huddersfield Town, Sheffield Wednesday, Bradford City, Rotherham United, York City


All matches 3pm Saturday unless stated
League One
Huddersfield Town v Stevenage Borough
Team news: Right-back Calum Woods is expected to be back in contention after missing the midweek penalty shootout defeat to Bradford. Liam Cooper, on loan from Hull, was recalled to the back four on Tuesday night but suffered a back spasm at half-time and his place in defence could go to Antony Kay. Central defender Jamie McCombe sits out the final game of his three-match ban, meaning skipper Peter Clarke will continue at centre-half. Midfielder Oscar Gobern was forced off in midweek with a dead-leg but is expected to be fit after returning to training.
Sheffield Wednesday v Chesterfield
Team news: Jermaine Johnson is back in contention following suspension. Johnson has served a three-game ban following his dismissal in last month’s 5-1 defeat at Stevenage. Gary Megson will be without defender Reda Johnson, who is on international duty with Benin for an African Nations Cup qualifier against Rwanda, so Mark Reynolds and Julian Bennett will be vying to fill the gap at left-back. Ryan Lowe remains sidelined with the ankle injury that has dogged him since his summer arrival from Bury. Chris O’Grady is pushing for a start after overcoming his foot problem.
League Two
Bradford City v Torquay United
