Bristol City and Fulham go head to head at Ashton Gate Stadium in the Championship round 9.

Bloomfield Road will host Saturday’s football game between Blackpool and Barnsley, the two teams who are level on points ahead of Matchday 9. The Seasiders aim to build on a 2-1 win at Middlesbrough, but this match will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts.

Preston

Saturday’s football game at St. Andrew’s Stadium pits together Birmingham City and Preston. The Blues suffered a dip in form, with the team experiencing all sorts of problems at the back in back-to-back losses to Fulham (1-4), and Peterborough (0-3).

WBA will be aiming to climb to automatic promotion places when they take on Queens Park Rangers at the Hawthorns on Matchday 9. The Baggies are undefeated in the 2021/2022 Championship season, but they have drawn the previous three league fixtures.

QPR will look to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Bournemouth when they welcome Bristol City to their Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium on Matchday 8.

Saturday’s football game at Weston Homes Stadium pits together Peterborough United and Birmingham City, the two sides who sit in the opposite halves of the table ahead of Matchday 8.
