QPR

QPR

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. The Tigers enter this clash with a lengthy injury list—Ajayi, Belloumi, Crooks, Gyabi and Matazo all remain unavailable—yet their away form has been exceptional, winning 100% of their matches on the road and keeping 75% cl...

Preston

Preston

As Blackburn Rovers and Preston seem to be evenly matched ahead of Friday's game, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Riversiders enter this Lancashire derby with problems in midfield as Todd Cantwell serves a suspension, while defender Lewis Miller is doubtful after a knock picked up in the 3–1 win over QPR. Their overall form remains inconsistent, taking just 0.90 points per game... Read More...

Portsmouth

Charlton Athletic welcome Portsmouth with both Edwards and Knibbs unavailable, adding pressure to Nathan Jones’ selection options. Anyhow, we predict Home Win as Portsmouth head into the match with a severely-weakened squad.

Wrexham

Bristol City return to action looking to manage a growing injury list, with both McNally and Bird sidelined, while Liam Manning’s side were inactive over the weekend. As both sides look sharp up front, there is a big value in betting on Both Teams to Score.

Coventry City and Middlesbrough meet in a clash that could have major implications at the top of the Championship standings. As both sides look sharp up front, a high-scoring 2-2 draw is on the horizon. Frank Lampard’s Coventry come into the game after a goalless draw with Oxford, but their home numbers remain impressive: 2.00 points per game at home, a 60% home win rate, ... Read More...

Millwall

Sheffield Wednesday welcome Millwall in an eagerly-awaited Championship clash, with the home side struggling at the bottom of the table. As the Owls are running down a blind alley, we predict a 1-0 away win. Wednesday’s woes continue after a 4-0 thrashing at Swansea, leaving them with only 0.1 points per game overall and a 0% win rate away from home this season. They have ... Read More...

QPR host Blackburn in a matchup between two sides struggling for consistency. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, our prediction points toward 1-1 draw.

Portsmouth and Sheffield United go head to head in the Championship round 32, with the Pompey struggling through a lengthy injury list, evident in their 1-0 loss to Preston.

Derby County host Swansea City to their Pride Park in the Championship round 32, with the Rams looking to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Ipswich Town.

Charlton Athletic return to action after a solid defensive display in a 0-0 draw with QPR, but injuries to Edwards and Knibbs limit their attacking options. Therefore, we predict that they will play out a 1-1 draw with Stoke City in Wednesday's postponed fixure.
