In case anybody didn't realise, there are NO league fixtures that weekend(/TFF week) so no need for rescheduled/bonus/double games - these are the first games after the international Break.
(then midweek full PL set & weekend set - so all teams play 2 games in TFF week, April 1-7)

murf many thanks for the reminder of these quite interesting FA cup games. My preference would be watching live the London Fulham v CP game. Hope they enjoy this game.Accroding to bookies Fulham enters as a fav. And of course following all games. Do you think Preston could overtake Villa dear murf?
Besten Dank, Maxi!
