This week matches

Almagro vs Deportivo Maipu - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: Argentina - Primera Nacional

Almagro will face Deportivo Maipu on September 12, 2026, at Estadio Tres de Febrero in a Primera Nacional group stage fixture. Both sides have struggled for consistency during the 2026 campaign and will view this encounter as an opportunity to pick up valuable points in the second half of the season. The match kicks off at 20:00 UTC with Almagro looking to capitalize on home advantage against a Deportivo Maipu side that has been difficult to break down away from Estadio Omar Higinio Sperdutti.

Almagro enters this clash on the back of a narrow 0:1 away victory over Patronato on August 30, which followed a hard-fought 1:1 draw away to Quilmes on August 9. Those results highlight a side that is competitive on the road but has found goals difficult to come by, with only 21 goals scored in 26 league matches this term. Deportivo Maipu, meanwhile, suffered a 1:0 defeat at Colegiales on August 29 and was held to a 0:0 stalemate by Gimnasia y Tiro on July 26, demonstrating their own defensive resilience but also a lack of cutting edge in the final third.

Colegiales vs Nueva Chicago - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: Argentina - Primera Nacional

Colegiales host Nueva Chicago at the Estadio de Colegiales on Saturday, 12 September 2026, in a Primera Nacional Round fixture that pits 10th-placed Colegiales against a Nueva Chicago side struggling in 16th. The Tricolor de Munro arrive in solid home form, having scored six goals across their last five matches and sitting among the top home sides this season, as shown by their confident 2-0 win over Ferrocarril Midland and their disciplined 0-0 draw with Deportivo Maipú, while Chicago have managed just one win in their last five outings despite a narrow 1-0 home victory over Quilmes in midweek.

Head-to-head history between these two Buenos Aires clubs has been dominated by Nueva Chicago historically, but the most recent meeting this season ended in a stalemate when the sides shared a 0-0 draw in Mataderos back in April 2026. The visitors' scoring problems are well documented, with just 0.2 goals per game across their last five matches, and their most recent away trip ended in a 1-0 defeat at Midland, underlining how little Chicago create on the road. Colegiales, by contrast, are compact defensively and efficient at home, keeping clean sheets against Almagro and San Miguel in recent weeks.

Gremio vs Vasco - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: Brazil - Serie A Betano

Gremio will host Vasco da Gama on September 12, 2026 at Arena do Gremio in Porto Alegre for a pivotal Brasileirão Serie A Betano Round 27 encounter. The two sides are separated by just three points in the lower half of the table, with the Immortal Tricolor sitting in fifteenth place on 28 points while the Camisas Negras occupy seventeenth with 25 points. European bookmakers currently list a home win at 2.10, the draw at 3.35 and an away victory at 3.70, prices that underline Gremio's formidable record against this opponent on their own turf.

The home side have produced mixed results in their latest outings, suffering a 1:0 defeat away to Bragantino before claiming a hard-fought 2:1 victory over São Paulo at Arena do Gremio. For the 2026/2027 season, Mano Menezes has assembled a squad featuring Weverton in goal, defensive cover from Lucas, Noriega, Kannemann and Marlon, a midfield engine room of Arthur, Cristaldo and Krovinovic, and attacking threats led by Carlos Vinícius, Cristian Pavon and Francis Amuzu, though Villasanti and Balbuena remain injury doubts.

Nublense vs Everton - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: Chile - Liga de Primera

Ñublense and Everton de Viña del Mar are set to renew their Liga de Primera rivalry on 12 September 2026 at the Estadio Bicentenario Municipal Nelson Oyarzún in Chillán. With both clubs targeting a strong finish to the 2026 campaign, this fixture carries significant weight as Ñublense looks to climb the standings while Everton aims to maintain their push for a continental qualification spot.

The hosts have experienced a turbulent run of late, picking up a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Audax Italiano and battling to a 0-0 result versus Universidad de Concepción. Head coach Juan José Ribera has built a well-balanced 2026/2027 squad led by top scorer Ignacio Jeraldino, creative midfielder Matías Plaza, reliable goalkeeper Nicolás Pérez, and the defensive pairing of Osvaldo Bosso and Sebastián Valencia, giving the chillanejos plenty of depth to challenge at home.

Blackburn vs Millwall - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - Championship

Blackburn Rovers welcome Millwall to Ewood Park on Saturday, September 12, 2026, for an EFL Championship fixture that kicks off the 2026/2027 season's early narrative. The hosts hope to erase memories of a difficult previous campaign and will draw confidence from their 1-2 away triumph over Preston North End last November, one of few bright spots in an otherwise inconsistent run. Finding the right balance at home remains the immediate priority for the Rovers as they face a Millwall side that arrives with clear ambition.

The predicted 2026/2027 starting elevens underline the experience both sides can call upon. Blackburn are expected to field Balázs Tóth in goal, with Eiran Cashin, Sean McLoughlin, and Hayden Carter forming a three-man defensive core. Adam Forshaw and Gardner-Hickman should sit deep in midfield, supplying Mathias Jorgensen, Moussa Baradji, and Ryoya Morishita in advanced roles. Millwall will likely counter with Anthony Patterson behind a back four of Dan McNamara, Tristan Crama, Jake Cooper, and Zak Sturge, while Barry Bannan, Billy Mitchell, and Femi Azeez control the centre and Mihailo Ivanovic partners Josh Coburn in attack. The Lions demonstrated their cutting edge last time out with a commanding 3-0 victory over Norwich City at The Den.

Middlesbrough vs Norwich - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - Championship

Middlesbrough will face Norwich City at Riverside Stadium on Saturday, 12 September 2026, in a Sky Bet Championship fixture kicking off at 14:00 UTC. The hosts come into this clash in strong form after recording a 3-1 victory over West Bromwich Albion in their most recent league outing, while Norwich will be looking to bounce back following a difficult spell. The two sides have met 19 times since 2004, with Middlesbrough holding a narrow advantage of eight wins to Norwich's seven, alongside four draws.

The Teessiders have enjoyed a positive start to the 2026/27 campaign, also progressing in the EFL Cup with a 1-3 win away at Doncaster Rovers and opening their season with a 1-0 triumph against Wrexham. Norwich, meanwhile, have struggled on the road recently, suffering a 3-0 defeat at Millwall in the Championship, though they did secure a 2-1 victory at Cardiff City in the cup. The Canaries will be without midfielder Mirko Topić through injury, whereas Middlesbrough have reported no unavailable players ahead of this fixture.

Swansea vs Burnley - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - Championship

Swansea City host Burnley at the Swansea.com Stadium on Saturday 12 September 2026 (15:00 BST) in a mouth-watering EFL Championship clash between two sides heading in very different directions this season. The Swans sit top of the table with 11 points from their opening five matches and remain the only unbeaten side in the division, having opened the campaign with a fine away win at Stoke (1-2) before battering Derby County (0-3), seeing off Watford 2-0 and grinding out a goalless draw against Wrexham (0-0) in front of a season-high 20,056 crowd. Burnley, meanwhile, are still searching for their first league win under new boss Nicky Hayen after a difficult start that has brought just two points from five games.

The Clarets' 2026/27 campaign began promisingly enough with a battling home draw against West Ham United (2-2), but things quickly turned sour with a heavy defeat at West Bromwich Albion (3-1), a 4-1 thrashing at Norwich and a 1-2 home loss to Bristol City last time out. Burnley close last season's Premier League campaign with a 1-1 draw against Wolves (1-1), and they must first navigate a tricky midweek trip to Wrexham on Wednesday 9 September before making the journey to South Wales — a schedule that only adds to Hayen's early-season headaches.

West Brom vs QPR - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - Championship

West Brom host QPR at The Hawthorns on Saturday 12 September 2026 in a Sky Bet Championship 2026/27 match scheduled for 12:30 BST, with both sides arriving level on 10 points from the opening five league games and West Brom holding home favouritism in the early European 1X2 market. The Baggies’ latest result was a hard-earned 1-0 win over Watford, while QPR responded to their 2-1 home victory against Cardiff City by losing 1-0 to Middlesbrough, keeping this contest tight enough that our prediction is a narrow West Brom 2-1 win.

Recent evidence still points to West Brom having the stronger attacking platform at The Hawthorns: their 3-1 defeat at Middlesbrough is the clear warning sign, yet James Morrison’s side have shown enough control in the 3-1 Burnley win and the 1-0 Watford success to justify favouritism around 1.95, with the draw near 3.70 and QPR close to 3.70. QPR’s away-day reference point remains their resilient 0-1 win at Blackburn last November, and Julien Stéphan’s team will look to Ilias Chair’s creativity and Rumarn Burrell’s movement to repeat that compact counter-attacking template rather than open up early.

Blackpool vs Bromley - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - League One

Blackpool welcome newly promoted Bromley to Bloomfield Road on Saturday 12 September 2026, with kick-off at 3:00pm GMT in a Sky Bet League One fixture that pits two sides in very different moods against each other. The hosts sit 11th in the early table with seven points from their opening five matches, while Andy Woodman's Bromley — last season's League Two champions — are 21st with just four points and a worrying goal difference of minus eleven after a bruising introduction to the third tier. This will be the first league meeting between the two clubs in the 2026/27 campaign, and Ian Evatt's men will be strong favourites to collect all three points in front of their own supporters.

Blackpool's 2026/27 squad has been significantly reshaped by Evatt, with Ilmari Niskanen arriving from Exeter City, Karoy Anderson from Charlton Athletic, goalkeeper Luke Southwood from Bristol Rovers and Josh Earl signed from Barnsley, while Dion Charles and Finley Munroe joined on loan from Huddersfield Town and Middlesbrough respectively and popular striker Jerry Yates returned from Luton Town. The Seasiders looked sharp in August, thrashing Peterborough United 4-0 at Bloomfield Road to continue an unbeaten league start, although they have since slipped to back-to-back defeats against Barnsley and Reading. Their only other home blemish came in the Carabao Cup, where a much-changed side was beaten 1-4 by Lincoln City, but their league form at Bloomfield Road remains a major strength.

Cambridge Utd vs Reading - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - League One

Cambridge United host Reading at the Cledara Abbey Stadium on Saturday, 12 September 2026, in a Sky Bet League One Round 6 clash that pits two of the division's early-season form teams against each other. The U's sit 6th in the table with 8 points from their opening five matches, while Reading are just two places behind in 8th on 7 points, making this a genuine mid-table shootout with both sides eager to stake an early claim for the play-off race. Cambridge come into the fixture on the back of a hard-fought 2-2 draw at Burton Albion and a 2-1 win at Bradford City, and manager Neil Harris will fancy his side's chances on home soil despite the Royals' impressive firepower this season.

Cambridge's 2026/27 squad has settled quickly under Harris, with goalkeeper Jack Eastwood marshalling a back line featuring Liam Bennett, Dannie Ball, Zac Bradshaw and Connor Perry, while the midfield engine room of Oli Moxon, Korey Watts and Brandon Knight has supplied the platform for an attack led by Gassan Ahadme, Louis Appere, Shayne Lavery and Sullay Kaikai. The U's recent results underline their resilience: after edging Wigan 3-2 in a thriller on 15 August, they ground out a 1-1 draw away at Bromley, before suffering a narrow 0-1 home defeat to Millwall in the Carabao Cup. Fans can relive those recent battles here: 3-2, 1-1 and 0-1.

Oxford Utd vs Burton - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - League One

Oxford United welcome Burton Albion to the Kassam Stadium on Saturday 12 September 2026, with kick-off at 3:00pm, for a Sky Bet League One clash that pits two of the division's early-season form sides against each other. Burton arrive sitting fifth in the table with eight points from their opening five matches, while Aaron Ramsey's Oxford — back in League One after relegation from the Championship — are tenth with seven points and will be boosted by their stunning 4-0 win at Leicester last time out. The historical head-to-head record is tight, with Oxford holding 10 wins to Burton's 7 alongside 7 draws, but the U's thrashed the Brewers 4-0 in the most recent meeting back in April 2024, and home supporters will be hoping for a repeat performance in front of a strong crowd.

Oxford's campaign began in frustrating fashion when they exited the Carabao Cup after a 2-0 defeat at Leyton Orient on the opening weekend, but they have since responded well in the league with victories at Stevenage and Leicester. Last season's Championship run-in showed their resilience, twice digging out results in tight contests such as the 2-2 draw at Fratton Park against Portsmouth, where Will Lankshear's diving header nearly sealed a priceless away win. Burton, meanwhile, have been hard to beat but vulnerable on the road, following their 1-1 home draw with Stevenage — settled late by Oliver Sanderson's 90th-minute equaliser — with a 2-1 defeat at Notts County at the end of August, a result that highlighted their ongoing struggles to protect a lead away from the Pirelli Stadium.

Aston Villa vs Nottingham - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - Premier League

Aston Villa host Nottingham Forest at Villa Park on Saturday 12 September 2026 in a Premier League meeting where both 2026/27 campaigns are still waiting for lift-off: Villa have one point from three league games and have yet to score, while Forest are one point better off but also winless, making this an early test of nerve as much as quality.

The recent form lines point to tension rather than rhythm, with Villa following a 0:0 draw at Hull and a 0:1 home defeat by Arsenal after the heavy 4:0 loss at Brighton, while Nottingham Forest banked a creditable 2:2 at Liverpool but were frustrated in a 0:1 home defeat by Leeds and a goalless draw with Tottenham.

Bournemouth vs Brentford - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - Premier League

Bournemouth will host Brentford at the Vitality Stadium on 12 September 2026 in a Premier League 2026/2027 season clash that pits two of the division's most closely matched sides against each other. The Cherries sit 15th in the early standings with two points from their opening three matches, while the Bees are unbeaten in fifth place with five points and a plus-three goal difference, making this fixture a genuine test of whether Bournemouth can kick-start their campaign against a Brentford side that has yet to lose this term.

Bournemouth's 2026/2027 squad under Andoni Iraola blends youth and experience, with Djordje Petrovic in goal, a back line featuring Adrien Truffert, Antonio Silva, Jack Hill and Adam Smith, a midfield duo of Alex Scott and Tyler Adams, and an attack led by Marcus Tavernier, Justin Kluivert, Rayan and Evanilson. The Cherries have shown resilience without converting draws into wins so far: they were pegged back late in a 2:2 thriller at St James' Park after leading 2-0, followed a 1:1 home draw against Everton, and pushed Manchester City hard in a narrow 2-1 defeat on the road.

Chelsea vs Hull - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - Premier League

Chelsea host Hull City at Stamford Bridge on 12 September 2026 in a Premier League fixture that arrives with contrasting momentum despite both sides beginning the new campaign positively. The Blues responded to early pressure under Xabi Alonso with an eventful 4-3 home win over Brighton, then won 2-0 against Luton in the Carabao Cup and 3-2 at Fulham, before falling 2-1 at Arsenal last weekend. That defeat should not disguise Chelsea's attacking fluency: João Pedro, Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers have already linked well, while the confirmed 2026/27 squad gives Alonso depth through Reece James, Moisés Caicedo, Roméo Lavia, Pedro Neto, Jamie Gittens, Estêvão, Danny Welbeck, Emmanuel Emegha, Maxence Lacroix and Pep Chavarría.

Hull's Premier League return has been even more eye-catching because of the points collected rather than the glamour of the performance. The Tigers beat Manchester United 2-0, edged Coventry 1-0 away and then held Aston Villa to a disciplined 0-0, leaving them unbeaten with seven points from three matches. Sergej? no—Sergej is not in this squad story: the 2026/27 Hull group built for survival features Jack Butland and Konstantinos Tzolakis in goal, Lewie Coyle, Charlie Hughes, Semi Ajayi, John Egan, Nobel Mendy, Lucas Herrington, Matt Targett and Brooke Norton-Cuffy in defence, with Regan Slater, Hidemasa Morita, Óscar Zambrano, Lucas Gourna-Douath, Joe Gelhardt, Abdülkadir Ömür, Mohamed Belloumi, Mohamed-Ali Cho, Oli McBurnie and deadline additions such as Ilyas Ansah, Tim Iroegbunam, Christos Mouzakitis and Sorba Thomas providing Premier League experience and counter-attacking pace.

Crystal Palace vs Ipswich - Saturday, 12 September 2026

league: England - Premier League

Crystal Palace host Ipswich Town at Selhurst Park on Saturday, 12 September 2026 in a Premier League 2026/27 fixture, with Palace’s latest form mixed but encouraging: after the 2-3 comeback win at Fulham, they were beaten 1-4 by Manchester City, leaving the home side eager to bounce back in front of their own supporters.

Ipswich arrive with confidence problems after a 0-2 home defeat by Liverpool and a 5-2 loss at Manchester United, results that underline both their ability to compete in spells and the defensive lapses they must clean up before visiting Selhurst Park.
