Brentford

Brentford

Bournemouth play host to Brentford at their Vitality Stadium in the Championship playoffs semis, first leg. The Cherries have been impressive in the second half of the season, but it has to be noted that they are on a three-game losing run ahead of Monday’s showdown.

Huddersfield

After failing to win the previous five league fixtures, Reading will be looking to give fans some cheer when they face Huddersfield Town on the last day of the season. The Royals must be low on confidence following a 4-1 loss at Norwich City, but they surely want to finish the season in great manner. All Semedo, Meite, Esteves, and Camara are pushing for a start.

There will be fireworks when Derby County and Sheffield Wednesday face each other in the relegation six-pointer on the last day of the season.
