TOM COLLOMOSSE AT GRADSKI STADION: In driving rain, early goals from Kieffer Moore - after just 37 seconds - and Harry Wilson put Wales in an ideal position, and they held on in deteriorating conditions even though Driton Camaj pulled one back for the home side in the second half. This game was switched to Niksic due to the poor quality of the pitch at the City Stadium in Podgorica and the new venue looked more like a county-level athletics arena than a football stadium. This was Bellamy's second game in charge after an encouraging 0-0 draw with Turkey last Friday and he has enjoyed the experience so much that he does not want it to finish.

Sky Bet are offering three Price Boosts and a Scorecast Boost for tomorrow's televised first round Carabao Cup fixture between Sheffield United and Wrexham at Bramall Lane. Firstly, the three boosts require Kieffer Moore to have 2+ shots on target at 1/1, for there to be 12+ match shots on target at 7/4, and Elliot Lee to commit three or more fouls at 10/1. Regarding the above boosts - Moore scored eight goals in stints with Bournemouth in the Premier League and with Ipswich in the Championship in 2023-24, while Lee committed 50 fouls for Wrexham in League Two last season.

Sheffield United are reportedly hoping to sign a former England star this summer as they look to return to the Premier League at the first time of asking. The Blades were relegated from the top flight last season after a dismal campaign that saw them win just three of their 38 games. Chris Wilder's side started the new season in fine fashion with a 2-0 win over Preston North End on Friday in their opening Championship game to outline their status as one of the promotion favourites.

Preston and Sheffield United are one of the two fixtures kicking off the 2024-25 Championship season on Friday night. And Sky Bet are offering head-to-head odds, a Price Boost and a Scorecast Boost for the fixture at Deepdale. In the Full-time Result market, the recently relegated Sheffield United are 6/5 favourites to secure the win, while Preston are 21/10 outsiders.

Southampton will join Ipswich Town and Leicester City in the Premier League next season after winning the Championship play-off final, with a new set of WAGs joining them. Not only are Saints players now busy preparing for life in the English top-flight, but their various partners are as well, with many already fully settled into the WAG lifestyle. Mail Sport takes a look at some of the WAGs who will be supporting their footballing partners in the Premier League next season.

JOE BERNSTEIN AT PORTMAN ROAD: Kieran McKenna will be the Premier League's youngest manager next season but he has crammed plenty of experience into his relatively short career. It was Jose Mourinho who first gave McKenna the chance to move from academy coaching into the first-team set-up at Manchester United. McKenna has his mentor's self-confidence but the playing style is different. Ipswich are adventurous and swashbuckling, and it has brought remarkable success at Portman Road.

Ipswich Town have been promoted back to the Premier League for the first time in 22 years after a 2-0 win over Huddersfield Town. Kieran McKenna's side have enjoyed a fantastic season after emerging as the early favourites to go up under his leadership - despite only just moving up from League One last year - and they've battled all the way to seal their place in the top flight on the final day. The Tractor Boys only needed a point against the Terriers in their last Championship game and they got the job done with a routine victory, though Leeds United's 2-1 loss against Southampton meant they would have gone up anyway. 

Kieran McKenna began his coaching journey on crutches. He was aged just 22, and coming to terms with the premature end of his playing career after a second major hip operation when Tottenham academy bosses invited him to join them. Just for a taste of it. To see if he liked the idea. Turned out he liked it a lot. Turned out he was pretty good at it, too, just as those who extended the invitation knew he would be, and McKenna set about plotting a route to the top. The early steps involved a sports science degree at Loughborough University, coaching the students in non-League and Nottingham Forest 's Under 9s in the evenings and spending summers coaching in North America. Now, 15 years on, McKenna is one point from back-to-back promotions with Ipswich Town, on the brink of becoming a Premier League manager, taking his club back to the top flight after a 22-year exile. Over the past two seasons, no team in the top four divisions of English football has accumulated more points (191) or scored more goals (191) than Ipswich. Only Manchester City and Arsenal have a better points per game ratio.

COVENTRY CITY 1-2 IPSWICH TOWN - TOM COLLOMOSSE AT THE CBS ARENA: One more point will be enough to send Ipswich to the Premier League for the first time in 22 years after Cameron Burgess' second-half winner put them within sight of back-to-back promotions. If the Tractor Boys avoid defeat against Huddersfield - who are all but relegated - on Saturday it will be enough to take them up automatically and send Leeds United into the play-offs. A draw or more would crown a stunning triumph for coach Kieran McKenna, who led his side up from League One only last season. Ipswich rode their luck at times at Coventry but goals from Kieffer Moore and Burgess - either side of Haji Wright's leveller - saw them over the line.

The top of the Championship is heating up, with league leaders Ipswich just a point behind Leeds United and Leicester City two points clear. Kieran McKena's side is clearly leading the way for the crowned champions of this year's competition by defeating Southampton at Portman Road, putting some distance between them and Leeds. Russell Martin's side is expected to win this huge match, but the Saints will be tough opponents. The Ipswich win by 29/20, while a draw is 11/4.

JOE BERNSTEIN AT EWOOD PARK: Ipswich's Aynsley Pears gifted Conor Chaplin an early winner after a blunder. After failing to win on Friday, Chaplin's tame shot squirmed through the goalkeeper's hands after nine minutes for the Tractor Boys to leapfrog Leicester and Leeds. They had to try their luck at times, with Blackburn's three goals disallowed and visitor's goalkeeper Vaclav Hlady being forced to make multiple saves.

IN CARDIFF, IAN HERBERT. Rob Page was incredibly upbeat in the face of defeat, as usual. 'All's fine.' Everything's great,' he said of his friendship with some of his Wales FA bosses, who less than six months ago, said his deal will be reviewed if the country did not qualify for the European Championships automatically. Following the shootout loss to Poland, the country hasn't qualified for the European Championships at all. And though Page painted a picture of himself as a central character in the forthcoming sequel, he has some troubling questions to answer about his game's administration today.

Wales is marginally favourites to advance to their Euro 2024 play-off match against Poland at Cardiff City Stadium tonight. Rob Page's team are marginal outsiders at 15/8 to upset the applecart in enemy territory at the time of writing, with 13/8 to win the tie on home soil and book their place in Germany. Both nations impressed in their last Euro 2024 qualifiers last week, with Wales defeating Finland 4-1 and Poland thumping Estonia 5-1.

On Thursday night, Wales is a strong favorite to win their Euro 2024 play-off against Finland in Cardiff. Rob Page's team is priced at 4/11 to win the tie, which also included extra-time and penalties, in front of their home supporters, while Finland is 2/1 strangers. If Wales defends their 'favourites' tag and wins, they will face Poland or Estonia on March 26.

WILL PICKWORTH AT THE DEN: With the Northern Irishman transforming them from a middling League One side to Premier League hopefuls, there could hardly have gone wrong. However, after a streak of one victory in nine, as well as a loss to Non-League Maidstone United, the Tractor Boys must make a statement that they are not going anywhere in this enthralling Championship promotion battle.

Bournemouth has allowed the Welsh star to leave on a temporary basis after he only started working under Andoni Iraola during the first half of the campaign. Moore spent 18 months at Portman Road, and although he failed to score in 11 appearances in 2017, he returns with a strong Championship and big-match pedigree. He spent the first six months with Ipswich before moving to Barsnley in January 2018.

SIMON JONES: Bournemouth is currently working on a contract with former Manchester City striker Enes Unal, who is currently at Getafe. The Turkish international came from Bursaspor in the summer of 2015, but he spent the next two years on loan at Genk in Belgium and then in Evro-Breda and Twente in the Ethical Republic. Unal left City in the summer of 2017, joining Villarreal in a £12 million contract.

SIMON JONES: Jurgen Klopp's pending departure, as well as sports director Jorg Schmadtke, has sparked a never ending discussion about how Liverpool will recover. One of the most common comments around Anfield is that it would be a good idea to tempt the club's former sports director Michael Edwards back to a new role. Edwards left Liverpool just over a year ago and was regarded as the brains behind Liverpool's impressive recruiting process. He's since founded Ludonautics, alongside Liverpool's former director of research Ian Graham, who is now working with a Premier League club and forming a Bolton Wanderers partnership last week.

When Bournemouth's Dominic Solanke's team takes on Championship club Swansea in the fourth round of the FA Cup, he is 3/1 to score a brace and 12/1 to bag a hat-trick. Solanke has been in superb form for the Cherries this season, scoring 13 goals in all competitions to date. Kieffer Moore and Luis Sinisterra are the next best-backed in Sky Bet's 'Multi Scorers' competition, with the pair scoring a double and 17/2 to land a hat-trick.

Bournemouth is the team that should be fighting the FA Cup this season, with Stuck in no man's land between the relegation fight and the Europa Cup. Boss Andoni Iraola did not call on any of his heavy artillery here, and his reservers put in a long hours of a simple enough operation at Loftus Road, but the Cherries maintained a high spirit in overturning a two-goal deficit to guarantee their place in the next round. At the break, Sinclair Armstrong and Lyndon Dykes had QPR up 2-0, but Bournemouth was a different outfit after the interval, and they were a different team after the break, and soon improved thanks to Marcus Tavernier and Kieffer Moore's goals. Justin Kluivert's tap-in completed the visitors' return to the country, and Iraola will now look forward to his team's chances of converting their glorious league form into a cup run that could even surpass the Cherries' best showing in the competition - quarter-final appearances in 1957 and 2021.

Simon Jones of Mail Sport gives us a detailed rundown of who players each of the Premier League clubs should expect to bring in this January. So many actors could be on their way out during next month's transfer window as well as the actresses who may be on their way out.

Dominic Solanke, the most backed in Sky Bet's 'Multi Scorers' market for Bournemouth's Boxing Day match with Fulham at Vitality Stadium, is the best-backed. Solanke has been outstanding in front of goal this season, scoring nine goals in 2023-24, two of which came in the form of a brace against Newcastle in November. According to Sky Bet, the 26-year-old is 15/2 to score a brace and 33/1 to bag a hat-trick. Kieffer Moore, Solanke's co-mate, is next in the game, with the Welsh forward scoring 2+ goals and 3+ goals respectively, 11/1 and 33/1.
