Every match in all three divisions of the Football League will begin with a minute's applause for Graham Taylor in a mark of the widespread regard in which the former England manager was held.
Watford players will wear black armbands against Middlesbrough on Saturday and further tributes will be paid at Vicarage Road, the place where Taylor gained greatest success.
Players and managers from Wolves and Aston Villa, two clubs Taylor also managed with distinction, will wear black armbands when they face off at Molineux in the Championship's evening kick-off.
The Premier League plan to leave the decision on how to mark Taylor's passing at the age of 72 to individual clubs, although all are expected to pay respects.
