The date for the first leg of the Championship play-off semi-finals has been changed due to a Premier League match taking place nearby. The fifth-vs-fourth place game, initially scheduled for 8 pm on Monday, May 13th, will now take place on Sunday, May 12th, at 2:15 pm. The sixth-vs-third place match will also take place on May 12th, but at 12:30 pm. The rescheduling is reportedly due to Aston Villa’s home game with Liverpool at Villa Park, which could strain local police resources if held on the same day as the Championship match. The reverse fixture of the fifth-vs-fourth place match will be held on Friday, May 17th, at 8 pm.
