Preston

Cardiff City will be aiming to extend their winning run in the Championship to five games when they take on Preston in the Championship round 31.

Barnsley

Barnsley

Bristol City and Barnsley take on each other in a highly-anticipated game at Ashton Gate Stadium on Matchday 31. The Robins are on a five-game losing run in the Championship, with the team obviously struggling at the back. Bristol City failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Watford (0-6) and Reading (0-2), and it is no wonder the odds for away win have been dropping. < ... Read More...

St. Andrew’s Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Coventry City and Brentford, the two teams with completely different ambitions in the remainder of the season.

Watford and Derby County take on each other at Vicarage Road in the opening match of day 31. The Hornets aim to build on back-to-back wins over Watford (6-0) and Preston (1-0), and seeing that a triumph over Derby could see them climb to automatic promotion places, we are positive that the hosts will adopt an attack-minded approach in Friday’s clash.

After sharing the spoils with Nottingham Forest at the City Ground, Bournemouth will be aiming to return to winning ways in the Championship when they welcome Rotherham United at their Vitality Stadium on Wednesday evening.

Wednesday’s football game at Oakwell pits together Barnsley and Blackburn Rovers, the two teams who aim to stay in the Championship playoffs race.

Brentford

There will be fireworks when QPR and Brentford take on each other in a small London derby on Wednesday evening.
