Championship Fixtures 21st August 2010 Part 4

Preston North End v Portsmouth
Preston are rock bottom of the Championship but with Portsmouth just a point ahead and only out of the relegation places on goal difference, Preston certainly have a chance.
Craig Morgan should make his 200th career league start for Preston in this match. Team-mate Paul Parry is on his way back from a knee injury and will probably start sooner or later.

Reading v Nottingham Forest
Reading and Forest were expected to do well this season – and maybe one of them will start doing well in this match.
It’s hard to know which strikers will play for Reading, there are so many of them. But I’d like to put in a good word for Simon Church. Hal Robson-Kanu and Jake Taylor might both be on the bench.
Forest will be without right back Chris Gunter, who has a three-match ban for violent conduct after playing footsie with Leeds United’s Sanchez Watt. Robert Earnshaw, like the Reading strikers, has lots of competition for a place in the side so he might be on the bench.
