Fulham

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.

Fulham

Swansea City and Fulham square off against each other at Swansea.com Stadium in a highly-anticipated Championship game. The Swans suffered yet another dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three league fixtures, and, no doubt, they are low on spirits ahead of the visit of Fulham.

Preston

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. Keep in mind that all Bursik, Powell, Sawyers, Souttar, and Thompson have been struggling with injuries of late. The Lilywhites, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 1-0 ... Read More...

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. The Reds continue with their old habit of producing much better showings at home than on the travels, and, no doubt, they are capable of beating Barnsley in front of home fans.

WBA and Cardiff City square off against each other at the Hawthorns on day 26 of the 2021/2022 Championship campaign. The Baggies aim to move closer to automatic promotion berth, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Bluebirds. Since WBA failed to turn their dominance into goals in a 1-0 loss to Derby, home win should be considered this time out. Matthew Phillips ... Read More...
