Championship on TV: Burnley v Middlesbrough, Huddersfield Town v Watford and West Brom v Rotherham set for LIVE broadcast at 3pm on Saturday

This weekend marks the final Saturday clubs in the Championship and the remainder of the EFL can take advantage of the relaxing of the traditional 3pm blackout for live football matches.

Games are normally prohibited from being shown between 2.45pm and 5.15pm on a Saturday but that rule is on hold until after the final in Qatar on Sunday as France aim to defend their crown against Argentina.

That means fans will be able to watch fixtures from home via internet streams this weekend if they cannot attend in person, although not every club in the second tier has taken up the option to stream their weekend matches with the decision still left in the hands of the home side.
