There is perhaps no tighter situation across the EFL than League One’s relegation scrap.<\/p>\n
Six points separate six teams all looking to avoid dropping into the final relegation place but Saturday could see at least two go a long way to safety.<\/p>\n
Current 21st-place holders Exeter City make the trip to Burton Albion hoping to extend their three-match unbeaten run after goalkeeper Jack Bycroft scored a 96th minute equaliser at Stockport County last time out.<\/p>\n
The Brewers are on their own undefeated streak of four games, however, and as little as a draw could ensure them safety.<\/p>\n
If the Grecians do lose, they will need at least one of two results elsewhere to go their way to avoid being relegated at the full time whistle.<\/p>\n
The first being AFC Wimbledon to do no better than a draw against Wigan Athletic – though the Dons have not won in nine games and have lost their past six.<\/p>\n
The second would be 16th-placed Blackpool, who have won four of their past five matches, secure another year in League One with a victory over Leyton Orient in another huge six-pointer.<\/p>\n
Oh, but don’t think that’s the only close-knit affair.<\/p>\n
League Two’s relegation royale will likely go down to the final day with just two points dividing the bottom four.<\/p>\n
Should Crawley and Newport both win their games against Accrington Stanley and Oldham Athletic, a loss for either Barrow or Harrogate would doom the club to non-league.<\/p>\n
Harrogate visit Walsall (15:00 BST) in order to make sure that doesn’t happen but it is Barrow who face the toughest test of all.<\/p>\n
Their trip is to a Cambridge United side (15:00 BST) still in the midst of fighting for an automatic promotion spot – a tough prospect, indeed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
