Swansea City and Bournemouth square off against each other at Swansea.com Stadium in a postponed Championship game.

Blackburn Rovers

After failing to spoil Fulham’s party at Deepdale, Preston will look to give fans some cheer when they face Blackburn Rovers on Matchday 44. The Lilywhites are stuck in the middle of the table, meaning that they head into Monday’s clash with the lack of motivation.

WBA will look to recover from a heart-breaking 4-0 loss to Forest when they welcome Coventry City to the Hawthorns on Matchday 44.
