Multiple League Two matches and Salford City's FA Cup tie were postponed because pitches were frozen and deemed unsafe.
Sunday's Championship game between Sheffield United and Oxford United is one of numerous EFL matches postponed because of frozen pitches. Seven fixtures have been called off in League Two and two more have fallen to the freezing weather in League One. In a statement, the Blades said a referee looked at the Bramall Lane pitch before the scheduled 12:00 GMT kick-off and found parts of the playing surface were frozen.
