Preston

As Blackburn Rovers and Preston seem to be evenly matched ahead of Friday's game, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Riversiders enter this Lancashire derby with problems in midfield as Todd Cantwell serves a suspension, while defender Lewis Miller is doubtful after a knock picked up in the 3–1 win over QPR.

Wrexham

Bristol City return to action looking to manage a growing injury list, with both McNally and Bird sidelined, while Liam Manning’s side were inactive over the weekend.

Coventry City and Middlesbrough meet in a clash that could have major implications at the top of the Championship standings. As both sides look sharp up front, a high-scoring 2-2 draw is on the horizon.

Sheffield Wednesday welcome Millwall in an eagerly-awaited Championship clash, with the home side struggling at the bottom of the table. As the Owls are running down a blind alley, we predict a 1-0 away win.

QPR host Blackburn in a matchup between two sides struggling for consistency. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, our prediction points toward 1-1 draw.

Portsmouth and Sheffield United go head to head in the Championship round 32, with the Pompey struggling through a lengthy injury list, evident in their 1-0 loss to Preston.

Derby County host Swansea City to their Pride Park in the Championship round 32, with the Rams looking to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Ipswich Town.

Charlton Athletic return to action after a solid defensive display in a 0-0 draw with QPR, but injuries to Edwards and Knibbs limit their attacking options.
