Sky Sports has announced 12 more live EFL fixtures in October and November, including many of the biggest clubs in the Sky Bet Championship.
The Sky Bet Championship and Sky Bet League One both feature in an exciting period of EFL fixtures, with newcomers to the division, potential early-season promotion battles and local derbies set to take centre stage.
Highlights include the Steel City Derby between rivals Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday, as the Blades play host at Bramall Lane in the Friday Night Football offering on 9 November.
Championship high-flyers Leeds United are also set to feature, kicking off the latest Sky Sports selections at Elland Road against Brentford on Saturday 6 October in a 12.30pm start.
The League One entertainment comes from Oakwell as Barnsley, one of five unbeaten sides so far in the division, welcome Nathan Jones’ Luton Town to Yorkshire on Saturday, 13 October in a midday kick-off.
Derby County, Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion are also all set for action in front of the Sky Sports cameras.
Throughout the course of the 2018/19 season, Sky Sports will exclusively show 127 live matches from the Sky Bet EFL season – including the Play-Offs – as well as 15 matches from the Carabao Cup and at least three from the Checkatrade Trophy.
Sky’s EFL games will be shown regularly on Friday nights and Saturday evenings on Sky Sports Football, plus there will be more midweek matches than ever before.
There are eight rounds of midweek Sky Bet Championship matches this season and Sky Sports Football will broadcast matches live on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, with Sky Sports viewers able to press the red button and watch live coverage of any of the midweek matches being played.
Free-to-air highlights of the EFL and Carabao Cup have switched from Channel 5 to Discovery-owned channel Quest this season.
