Leeds United have been presented with a huge new chance in Wednesday night’s Championship clash at Coventry City - but what are the coverage details?

But Leeds return to action with a Wednesday night ‘game in hand’ at Coventry which now offers the huge chance for Leeds to move five points clear at the division’s summit due to second-placed Sheffield United not playing until Saturday afternoon.
Leeds were also due to visit Coventry this coming weekend in a Saturday afternoon 3pm kick-off but the contest was moved to a Wednesday night due to the club’s continued involvement in the FA Cup.
However, the Wednesday night clash at Coventry which kicks off at 7.45pm is NOT being televised due to initially being a Saturday afternoon 3pm game.
