You know the drill by now. This weekend, once again, there are plenty of games for Tottenham Hotspur loanees, across plenty of different competitions. Let’s take a look at how things are looking.
As always, let’s begin in the Championship. Ashley Phillips and his Stoke City won’t be too far from the Spurs first team – as they face Norwich City on the road. Meanwhile, Yang Min-hyeok and QPR travel to face Portsmouth, as he looks to build on his assist against Derby County last week. Finally, Will Lankshear and West Bromwich Albion will host Oxford United. All games kick off at 15:00 GMT.
In League One, Josh Keeley, Jamie Donley, and their Leyton Orient side face Bolton Wanderers on the road on Saturday, for a 15:00 GMT kick off. Barring a ten goal swing, the O's are guaranteed to be in the top six at the end of the weekend, and could be fifth place - one point off fourth with a game in hand, should they secure another win. On Sunday, Matthew Craig’s Mansfield Town host Wrexham at the same time – though he seems to be MIA.
To complete the EFL preview, George Abbott and his Notts County side will host Tranmere Rovers in League Two on Saturday, for a 15:00 GMT kick off. Notts could go up to second with all three points in this one.
Down in the National League, Luca Gunter and Wealdstone will host Ebbsfleet United on Saturday, at 15:00 GMT. In midweek, the Stones won 2-1 away to Braintree to move themselves out of the relegation zone.
North of the border, Alfie Dorrington and his Aberdeen side are in Scottish Premiership action, when they host Kilmarnock. Another 15:00 GMT kick off for that one.
Into Europe. In La Liga, Alejo Veliz and his RCD Espanyol side are in action away to Alaves on Saturday, for a 13:00 GMT kick off. Meanwhile, on Sunday, Bryan Gil and his Girona side have the mammoth task of facing Real Madrid away from home – for a 15:15 GMT kick off.
To finish things off, Luka Vuskovic, Alfie Devine, and their KVC Westerlo side are in Belgium Pro League action at home to Charleroi on Saturday, for a 17:15 GMT kick off. In their last outing, Devine missed the game through injury, so here is hoping that he is fit for this game.
