Sheffield United

All eyes will be on Pride Park when Derby County and Sheffield United face each other in the Championship round 27.

Blackburn Rovers

Cardiff City and Blackburn Rovers face each other at Cardiff City Stadium in what is expected to be a close Championship encounter. The Bluebirds did well to eliminate Preston in the FA Cup round 3 at the weekend, but they are on a four-game winless run in the English second tier.

Blackpool

Blackpool

Barnsley play host to Blackpool at their Oakwell on day 27 of the current Championship campaign. The Tykes were not in action in midweek as their clash with Stoke City was postponed due to COVID-19 outbreak at the Yorkshire club. Considering that Barnsley are hit by both injuries and coronavirus, we are not tempted to put our money on the hosts. The Seasiders, on the other h... Read More...

Bournemouth

Kenilworth Road will host Saturday’s football game between Luton Town and Bournemouth, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Hatters occupy 16th place in the standings, with the team having slim chances of booking their place in the playoffs. Even though Luton impressed in a 4-0 win over Harrogate, home win should not be considered as Bournemouth a... Read More...

Stoke City

After surviving lower-league side Barrow in the FA Cup round 3, Barnsley will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Stoke in the Championship round 24. The Tykes are on an eight-game winless run in the English second tier, and they are likely to leave their hearts on the field. Both Halme and Oulare are sidelined with injuries, while Carlton ...

After suffering a shocking loss to Kidderminster in the FA Cup round 3, Reading will look to give fans some cheer when they take on Fulham in the Championship round 25. The Royals aim to put an end to their three-game winless run in the English second tier, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Fulham.

Peterborough

Monday’s football game at Vitality Stadium pits together Bournemouth and Peterborough, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the remainder of the season. The Cherries aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over QPR, and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in the first game of the year.

Swansea City and Fulham square off against each other at Swansea.com Stadium in a highly-anticipated Championship game.

Stoke City welcome Preston to their Bet365 Stadium in the first game of the year. The Potters aim to kick off 2022 in style, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side.

There will be fireworks when Reading and Derby County face each other in the relegation six-pointer at Select Car Leasing Stadium.

Legendary City Ground stadium will host Monday’s football game between Nottingham Forest and Barnsley.
