Surrey
Blackpool V Hull (Friday, 7.45pm)
Barnsley V Nottm Forest
Birmingham V Derby
Crystal Palace V Peterborough
Doncaster V Brighton
Ipswich V Bristol City
Leicester V Coventry
Millwall V Reading
Portsmouth V Middlesbrough
Watford V Burnley
Leeds United V Southampton (5.20pm)
Cardiff V West Ham (Sunday, 12.45pm)


So a win sees us into the play off places, even if it is only for one day. Blackpool v Hull is a handy fixture from our point of view, I guess a draw would be what we'd hope for. Birmingham will win, I suspect Reading might too. Middlesbrough, Southampton, Leeds, Cardiff and West Ham will hopefully ALL drop points.

We play Donny, who are bottom. So that's a defeat for us then. :(

I don;t think a Reading win is nailed on (although they are flying). Millwall playing quite well.

A win for us and a lot of draws and wins for Derby, Pompey and Millwall would do nicely

Waste of time, writing them all out. Just look at the main BBC FOOTBALL Championship page. It'll probably have all the fixtures on there.

I was at my mates party in Southampton Saturday and we were arguing about their game at Leeds Saturday. I reckon Leeds will do them ... they are a quality side, new manager and they probably know that a loss will mean the end of their season. It is a crunch game and if Saints win it I see them getting the 2nd auto place.

Reading are a worry for me but hopefully Millwall will play a blinder which they seem to 1 out of 3 but I'm not overly optimistic

Pompey and all the fight for survival tosh going on down there might be enough t see off an inconsistent Boro

Can't find a way to conjure up a Brum loss despite the defeat to Forest

The two 6 pointers to end in 1 point each (not sure why they are 6 pointers then)

......... oh, and then there's us ... we'll maul Donny so in play off posn's for 24 hours

Huge weekend for us, we definitely shouldn't over look Donny. Must win match for us 3 pts no less. What other teams do the rest of the season is out of our control, as long as we take care of ourselves the rest will happen, and 3pts against bottom of the league is a must with the run in we have at the end of the season. Anyone can beat anyone in this league so lets not think this will be easy.

I was expecting a heavy defeat against Ipswich so this prediction probably doesn’t count for much but I really can’t see beyond a Doncaster win this coming Saturday.

Razak could get 3 points against Donny on his own.

I agree. Ipswich had won 5 on the bounce and I thought we'd get soundly beaten. But I honestly think Donny will beat us because they will be up for it and most people expect us to win. A bit like the Millwall game

I've given up guessing Albion results. I thought Ipswich would take a point off us, maybe more, we would put four past Millwall and tonk them, we would draw at Peterborough and win comfortably at Palace.

I can see it all going wrong at Donny. We are due a shite league result as we've only had one bad league result in 2012, and that was Millwall at home.

Let's hope so, I wouldn't pay much atention to my predictions though...I never correctly predict results, hundreds of losing betting slips are testiment to this!

Cardiff v West Ham is on terrestrial TV. I doubt if the Hammers will do any better than Liverpool?

As much as Brum want to bounce back, Derby could be getting a little nervous. Predicatable results are always liable to slip to the opposite. Brum might have had their confidence dented enough, and Derby raise some determination.
Yes, we might be lucky to get a draw at Doncaster, unless they really have had the stuffing knocked out of them.

It's still a little way from the winning post yet, and if we can sneak into the playoffs by a point or two it's exactly what we want (the top two was always a big ask).

I'm surprised that Derby have stuck by Nigel Clough - maybe they're afraid of history repeating itself and him going on to manage Forest to European glory.

I think they have stuck by him as he is happy to operate on a shoestring budget without causing porblems and keeps them in the division relatively safely.
