Ipswich Town v Queens Park Rangers
- Kick-off: 12.30pm

Ipswich Town preview – A point clear of third spot following Tuesday night’s exciting 2-2 draw away to Southampton. Ipswich have suffered merely one defeat spanning 14 matches. The solitary home loss this season was 3-0 against Charlton Athletic on Tuesday 21st October.
Ipswich Town 2025/26 Championship home form – 13 wins, 8 draws, 1 defeat.
Queens Park Rangers preview – Five winless games culminating in three straight reverses. Nevertheless, unlikely victory on Saturday could secure a top half finish.
Queens Park Rangers 2025/26 Championship away form – 6 wins, 7 draws, 9 defeats.
Score prediction: Ipswich 1-0 and automatically promoted.
Millwall v Oxford United
- Kick-off: 12.30pm

Score prediction: Millwall 5-0 but not enough.
Wrexham v Middlesbrough

- Rankings: 6th versus 4th
Wrexham preview – Crucial for both clubs. Wrexham presently occupying the last Play-Off slot on goal difference. Yet just two wins across six outings which include three defeats.
Wrexham 2025/26 Championship home form – 10 wins, 6 draws, 6 defeats.
Middlesbrough preview – Two points shy of automatic promotion rungs. Currently three unbeaten engagements picking up maximum points in the last two. Boro must win on Saturday and pray Ipswich Town and Millwall slip up.

Score prediction: Both miss out on glory 1-1.
Hull City v Norwich City

Score prediction: Atrocious 0-0.
Derby County v Sheffield United
- Kick-off: 12.30pm
- Rankings: 8th versus 15th
Derby County preview – One point under the Play-Off zone after seven wins enriching 11 encounters. I watched last Saturday’s 3-2 success at Queens Park Rangers from the Matrade Loftus Road press box.
Even though the Rams were outplayed for long spells, I was impressed by how they kept battling to muster two vital goals inside the concluding 14 minutes.
Derby County 2025/26 Championship home form – 10 wins, 6 draws, 6 defeats.
Sheffield United preview – Nursing two consecutive defeats. However, don’t forget the Blades were struggling relegation candidates prior to boss Chris Wilder’s return in September. If Wilder stays on, I reckon he’ll mastermind a good push for promotion next year.

Score prediction: Rams dramatically rise into the Play-Offs 4-2.
