Birmingham City

Queens Park Rangers will be aiming to put an end to their three-game winless in the Championship when they take on Birmingham City on Matchday 39. The Hoops are only one point clear of the relegation zone, meaning that Friday’s clash against the fellow strugglers is of big importance for the home side.

Rotherham

Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over Plymouth, Preston will be aiming to stay in the playoffs race when they welcome Rotherham United to their Deepdale on Friday afternoon. The Lilywhites failed to win the previous three home games, but they will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways in the English second tier.

Plymouth

Norwich City play host to Plymouth at their Carrow Road on day 39 of the current Championship campaign. The Canaries aim to build on back-to-back wins over Rotherham United (5-0) and Stoke City (3-0) and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be experienced forward Ashley Barnes, who has found his goal-scoring... Read More...

Following four consecutive draws in the Championship, Hull City will be looking to stay in the playoffs race when they take on Stoke City at MKM Stadium on Matchday 39. The Tigers played out a 2-2 draw with Leicester City before the international break, but they need to return to winning ways as soon as possible if they are to secure a top-six finish.

John Smith’s Stadium will host Friday’s football game between Huddersfield Town and Coventry City, the two teams with entirely different ambitions for the season finale. The Terriers are desperate to avoid relegation and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field this time out.

Cardiff City will be aiming to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Swansea City when they take on Sunderland in the Championship round 39. The Bluebirds are eyeing their fourth consecutive win at home, but Friday’s match will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side.

West Bromwich

Millwall and West Bromwich Albion square off against each other at the Den in what is expected to be an interesting Championship game. The Lions failed to spoil Leeds United’s party at Elland Road before the international break, but it is well known that they produce much better showings at home than on the travels.

Bristol City will be aiming to recover from a 2-0 loss to WBA when they take on Leicester City in the Championship round 39 curtain-raiser.

Sunday’s football game between Leeds United and Millwall will bring down the curtain on the Championship round 38.

West Bromwich Albion and Bristol City square off against each other at the Hawthorns in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Saturday’s program.

Sunderland will be aiming to put an end to their six-game losing run when they face Queens Park Rangers in the Championship round 38. The Black Cats are running down a blind alley and, as a result, they have slim playoffs chances. As Sunderland have little to play for in the season finale, home win should not be considered.
