West Bromwich

West Bromwich

Buoyed by a 2-0 win over Birmingham City, Watford will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on West Bromwich Albion in the Championship round 7. The Hornets did well to put an end to their four-game winless run, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence and they are surely capable of making life difficult for WBA in front of home fans.

Rotherham

Rotherham

Millwall welcome Rotherham United to the Den on day 7 of the new Championship campaign. The Lions failed to impress in a 3-0 loss to Leeds United on Sunday, but the bookies still see them as favourites to beat the Millers at home ground. Midfielder George Honeyman misses out with a muscle injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.

Leeds United

Hull City will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to six games when they take on Leeds United on Matchday 7. The Tigers aim to stay in the playoffs berth, but they will have a big fish to fry against the promotion hopefuls. Ozan Tufan and Greg Docherty continue to miss out with injuries, while Cyrus Christie should sneak in to the starting XI.

John Smith’s Stadium will host Wednesday’s football game between Huddersfield Town and Stoke City, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Championship table. The Terriers have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both WBA and Rotherham in the last two league matches and they must be high on confidence ahead of the visit of Stoke C...

Riverside Stadium will be the center of attention when Blackburn Rovers and Sunderland lock horns in the Championship round 7. The Riversiders aim to build on a 2-1 win over Middlesbrough, with the team eyeing their third home triumph of the season, but Wednesday’s clash will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side.

Sheffield Wednesday and Middlesbrough go head to head at Hillsborough in the closing match of Tuesday’s program. The Owls have been flying low in the first half of the season, with the team still eyeing their first win of the process, but the midweek clash could be the turning point for Xisco Munoz’s troops.

Ipswich

All eyes will be on St. Mary’s Stadium when Southampton and Ipswich go head to head in the Championship derby. The Saints aim to recover from back-to-back defeats to Sunderland (0-5) and Leicester (1-4), but given their shaky defence, home win should not be considered. Talented Argentina midfielder Carlos Alcaraz should be a good option in the middle of the park for Tuesda... Read More...

Loftus Road will host Tuesday’s Championship game between Queens Park Rangers and Swansea City, the two bottom-table sides. The Swans are eager to escape the danger zone, but their display in the South Wales derby is not giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the trip to London.

Birmingham City

Deepdale will host Tuesday’s football game between Preston and Birmingham City, the two top-table sides. The Lilywhites made a flying start to the season, with the team collecting 16 points in total from possible 18 and, as a result, they are leading the chase for automatic promotion.
