Our Sky Bet Championship fixture at home to Queens Park Rangers on Tuesday 27 October will now, once again, kick-off at the earlier time of 7pm.
Both clubs initially agreed for the 7:45pm kick-off to be brought forward to 7pm but, due to Sky Sports’ red button coverage, this was changed back to the originally scheduled time of 7:45pm.
However, in light of the fixture now taking place in a Tier 3 lockdown area and to mitigate the risk on an away club spending additional time in this location, the EFL have approved of the 7pm kick-off, given the current circumstances.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused supporters.
