Leeds made wholesale changes for their 3-1 win over Derby in the last round of the FA Cup, and they face a much sterner test against Birmingham. The Blues have been let down by their away record, but they’ve won eight and drawn six of their 15 home matches this season. The new wave of documentary clubs seem to put plenty of emphasis on the cups, as Birmingham did last season. They made it to the fourth round of the FA Cup during their League One promotion campaign, pushing Birmingham in an intense atmosphere. Leeds’ focus is elsewhere, so Birmingham are good value to at least avoid defeat at home.

Millwall’s 2-0 win at Wrexham on Saturday extended their lead over the sixth-placed side to six points. The Welsh outfit are busy in the FA Cup this weekend, so the Lions can extend that cushion in this visit to bottom side Sheffield Wednesday. The Owls have lost nine straight games without scoring, while Millwall top the form table with 17 points from eight games. The Lions have beaten Wrexham, Charlton, and Watford by two or more goals across their last five league games, so they can claim a comfortable win.

PSV Eindhoven are the runaway Eredivisie leaders, winning 19 of their 22 league games this term. The Dutch champions have a perfect record of 11 wins from 11 on their travels, averaging close to three goals per game. Volendam haven’t beaten a top-half side in 11 attempts this season, but they have scored in 10 of their 11 home games. PSV have conceded in 13 of their 19 league wins this term, so Volendam should be good for a consolation goal.
