Promotion hopefuls Wycombe and Shrewsbury clash live on Sky Sports 1 and HD1 on Saturday lunchtime.

Catch Wycombe v Shrewsbury live on Sky Sports 1 and HD1

Peter Taylor's Wycombe take on Shrewsbury at home in the hope of getting back into the automatic promotion places, while the visitors will want to reassert themselves in the play-off pack after three successive league draws. Table-topping Brentford host third-placed Gillingham as they look to get back into the action after Monday's clash with Dagenham & Redbridge was called off due to floodlight failure. Another match of significance in the promotion race takes place at Spotland where second in the table Rochdale host sixth-placed Exeter, who sit just three points behind them. Bury and Bournemouth meet at Gigg Lane with both sides in desperate need of the points but for very different reasons. The Shakers are fifth in the table and know that victory can take them into the top three, while the Cherries will be looking to edge further away from the relegation zone. Chesterfield reinforced their play-off credentials with a 3-0 home win over Rochdale in midweek and are now just four points off the top seven. Next up at Saltergate are struggling Port Vale. Chester slipped into the bottom two last weekend despite a credible draw away at Bury and will face another promotion chasing side in the shape of out-of-form Bradford. Bottom of the table Luton have renewed hope of survival after their 1-0 win over Macclesfield last time out and they will be looking for more of the same at play-off hopefuls Morecambe. Third bottom Grimsby are just one point from the drop zone but they will be looking to build on their excellent 3-0 win over Gillingham last weekend when they face mid-table Aldershot. Barnet are just seven points off the danger zone but with two defeats in seven games they will be confident of taking three points off cash-strapped Darlington at Underhill. Dagenham & Redbridge still have faint play-off hopes with six points separating themselves and a top seven place. They host a Macclesfield side slipping dangerously close to the drop zone after three defeats in a row. Elsewhere, Lincoln welcome Notts County with neither side in real danger of going down or likely to threaten the promotion places. The same can be said of the match at the Don Valley Stadium where visitors Accrington will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to six games against Rotherham, who are just a point ahead of them.
