Sheffield Wednesday

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. The Rams have been totally out of form in the season finale, and, as a result, their Championship status is in great danger. Considering that Rotherham United are breathing down their neck, Derby County are likely to go for a win in S ... Read More...

Millwall

St. Andrew’s Stadium will host Saturday’s Championship game between Coventry City and Millwall, the two teams who have little to play for on the last day of the season. The Sky Blues head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Huddersfield Town, and they surely want to finish the season in style.

Rotherham

Cardiff City will be looking to build on back-to-back wins over Wycombe and Birmingham City when they take on Rotherham United in the Championship round 46. The Bluebirds have been impressive in front of goal of late, but that is unlikely to help them book their place in the playoffs. Anyhow, Cardiff’s pride will be at stake in Saturday’s clash as Rotherham are fighting ... Read More...

Brentford

Ashton Gate Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Bristol City and Brentford, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Robins have been totally out of form in the season finale, with the team losing each of their previous three league fixtures, and, no doubt, the lack of confidence should prove to be a big problem for the home team.

Bournemouth will be looking to clinch fifth position in the standings when they take on Swansea City in the last game of the season. The Cherries aim to avoid Brentford in the Championship playoffs semis, and we are positive that they will take Saturday’s game very seriously. Cook and Kelly should be the only absentees in the home team. The Potters, on the other hand, fail ... Read More...

Ewood Park will host Saturday’s football game between Blackburn Rovers and Birmingham City, the two teams who face each other in the last game of the season.

Norwich

Norwich City will be looking to put icing on the cake on a very successful season when they take on Barnsley at Oakwell in the last round. The Canaries did well to secure automatic promotion, and they are now on a quest to finish the season in style. Teemu Pukki, who scored his 26th goal of the season in a 4-1 win over Reading will be the man to watch in the home team.

Wycombe and Bournemouth take on each other at Adams Park in what is expected to be one of the most interesting games of Saturday’s program.
