The 2026/27 EFL season fixtures will be announced on Thursday, June 25, promising thrilling matchups across the Championship, League One, and League Two.

West Ham vs Millwall rekindles a fierce rivalry after 14 years apart. Their last encounter saw West Ham triumph, but Millwall boasts a strong league record leading up to this clash.

Middlesbrough vs Southampton adds drama with their recent history, stemming from Southampton's playoff expulsion. Expect a heated contest as these teams meet again in the Championship.

The Black Country derby returns with Wolves vs West Brom. They last faced off in the FA Cup over two years ago, and their league meeting will be highly anticipated, especially since their last league match was back in 2012.

Rivalries heat up in Lancashire as Burnley, Bolton, Preston, and Blackburn clash in the Championship. Notably, Burnley and Bolton have not faced each other in over a decade, making their upcoming matchup particularly exciting.

In the South Wales derby, Cardiff and Swansea will reignite their rivalry. Cardiff won their last encounter 3-0, but Swansea's previous successes against Cardiff in 2021-2023 add an intriguing layer to their next meeting.

The potential biggest mismatch in EFL history features Leicester against Bromley. Leicester, former Premier League champions, will face Bromley, who recently finished their first season at the National League level.

MK Dons vs AFC Wimbledon brings together two clubs with a contentious history, while the Yorkshire rivalry between Sheffield Wednesday and Barnsley is set to continue, following their dramatic play-off final encounter.

York City returns to the EFL after a decade, making their first match at the York Community Stadium a significant event. Lastly, the Nottinghamshire derby between Notts County and Mansfield marks a long-awaited reunion, with Notts aiming to improve their poor record against Mansfield.
