Sky Sports has added two Sky Bet Championship derbies to its live schedule for January.

Cardiff - currently searching for a new manager following the departure of Neil Warnock by mutual consent - will take on fierce rivals Swansea in front of the Sky cameras on Sunday January 12 (kick-off 12pm).

A west London clash between Brentford and QPR will take centre stage a day earlier on Saturday January 11 (kick-off 12.30pm).
