With the international break, out of all of Spurs’ loanees – only George Abbott had a game last weekend, with his Notts County side drawing 2-2 with Chesterfield in front of the Sky Sports cameras, with Abbott providing an assist. This weekend, club action is back for everyone. Let’s see how things are shaping up.

In the Championship, Ashley Phillips and his Stoke City side are in action at home to Norwich City on Saturday afternoon, 15:00 BST. Meanwhile, Dane Scarlett, fresh off his goal and assist for England U21s, and his Oxford United side, will host West Bromwich Albion in maybe their toughest game yet. That game is an early kick off on Saturday – 12:30 BST, in front of the Sky cameras.

Into League One. Matthew Craig’s Barnsley have a trip to Blackpool, as they look to arrest their slide of two points from their previous three league games. Kick off is 15:00 BST. Elsewhere, Josh Keeley, Jamie Donley, and Leyton Orient will face Northampton Town away at the same time, as they continue to look over their shoulder, just above the relegation zone.

In League Two, Abbott and Notts County will host AFC Wimbledon on Saturday – whom are managed by former Spurs academy graduate Johnnie Jackson. Kick off is 15:00 BST.

Onto the continent. Luka Vuskovic, Alfie Devine, and their KVC Westerlo side have a tricky game in the Belgian Pro League as they host Club Brugge on Saturday. Kick off for that one is also 15:00 BST.

Into La Liga, where Aljeo Veliz and RCD Espanyol will travel to play Athletic Club on Saturday afternoon, with a 13:00 BST kick off. Elsewhere, Bryan Gil and Girona will host Real Sociedad on Saturday, with a later kick off time of 17:30 BST for that one.

For those in the UK, you can watch the 15:00 BST games, despite the blackout, by using the red button on Sky Sports to access several EFL games.
