Port Vale have got a fixture pile up incoming. The QFs are Easter weekend when they'd normally be playing twice. Both matches could get shifted to the midweek before and after although the problem with that is their Good Friday match is away at Cardiff, who are in line to host a World Cup qualifier the Tuesday before. Vale aren't helped by the fact one of their weekend matches is v Stockport who are in the EFL Trophy final. There is just enough midweek slots left but if they end up getting through again there's going to be real problems.
