Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday

All eyes will be on Bramall Lane when Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday face each other in the Steel City derby. Given the huge gap in quality between the two local rivals, we predict a routine 3-0 home win. The Blades are in strong form and pushing for a playoff spot. With Joe Rothwell back from suspension, they look more solid in midfield. They average 2.6 goals per... Read More...

Ipswich

Wrexham and Ipswich Town face each other at Racecourse Ground in what is expected to be a close Championship encounter. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, we predict a 1-1 draw. Wrexham have been solid at home lately but are missing key players Brunt, Cacace, James, and O’Connor. The Dragons average 1.2 goals scored at home while conceding 1.6, showing some defens...

Derby

Following a 2-2 draw with Preston, Watford aim to return to winning ways, but given Derby's recent signs of improvement, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 away win. Watford have been inconsistent lately, with just 1 win in their last 5 games and a 20% overall win rate. The Hornets average 0.9 goals scored per match and concede 1.4, reflecting struggles in attack and defense.... Read More...

As Norwich City look unstoppable at the moment, we predict that they will record a 2-1 win over Birmingham City. The Canaries come into this fixture in excellent form, winning 4 of their last 5 games and comfortably defeating WBA 3-1 in the FA Cup.

Portsmouth

Millwall head into this game with multiple injuries—Bryan, Jensen, Kelly, Luongo, and Smallbone are out—but they still showed resilience in a 2-1 comeback win against bottom club Sheffield Wednesday. Therefore, we predict that they will defeat Portsmouth 2-1. The Lions' home form is strong, winning 75% of recent home games, scoring 2.25 goals per match at The Den, while ... Read More...

Oxford United

Middlesbrough aim to recover from a heart-breaking 3-1 loss to Coventry City and with Oxford United struggling for form on the road, we predict a 2-1 home win. The Boro head into this clash with a slightly depleted squad, missing Bangura, Edmundson, Jones, and Lenihan, but their league form remains strong.

Coventry

As West Bromwich Albion come into this clash struggling for form, with zero wins in their last five league matches, we predict a 2-1 win for Championship leaders Coventry City. Despite pushing for a start from O’Leary and Mowatt, WBA have been leaky at the back, conceding 2.67 goals per home game and failing to score in 67% of home matches. Their expected goals (xG) of 1.2... Read More...

Swansea City return to home soil aiming to respond after a 2–0 defeat to Derby and given Bristol City's struggles on the road, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 home win.

Leicester

Stoke City aim to recover from a heart-breaking FA Cup loss to Fulham, but given their negative H2H record against Leicester City, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 away win. The Potters head into Saturday's game with a lengthy injury list—Bazunu, Bozenik, Gallagher, Johansson, Mubama, and Tchamadeu all sidelined—which limits rotation and reduces attacking depth.

Hull City aim to recover from a heavy FA Cup loss to Chelsea and given QPR's struggles on the travels, we predict that they will do so with a 2-1 win.

As Blackburn Rovers and Preston seem to be evenly matched ahead of Friday's game, we predict a 1-1 draw.
