The Skybet Championship could take a huge step forward by bringing in Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology for this month's play-offs.
A report by the Telegraph claims that the technology may be implemented for all five games that make up the showpiece event, with both legs of each semi-final and the Wembley finale having it in operation.
Until now VAR has only been used domestically for Premier League matches, first introduced in the 2019-20 campaign. It has also been used sporadically in domestic cup competitions, albeit only for the semi-finals and final of the Carabao Cup and only in FA Cup ties that are played at Premier League grounds. This weekend sees the final round of matches take place in the Championship, with only two of the four play-off places confirmed.
