Birmingham City

Birmingham City

Middlesbrough welcome Birmingham City to their Riverside Stadium on day 13 of the new Championship campaign. The Boro aim to put an end to their three-game winless run, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Blues. Defender Darragh Lenihan remains on the sidelines with an ankle problem, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.

Wigan

Wigan

Wednesday’s football game at MKM Stadium pits together Hull City and Wigan Athletic, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Tigers are on a dreadful five-game losing run, and given their difficulties in front of goal, we do not believe that home win should be considered. All Vaughn Covil, Benjamin Tetteh, Brandon Flaming, and Billy Chadwick are inju... Read More...

Stoke City

After dropping two points in a 1-1 draw with Cardiff City, Burnley will look to return to winning ways when they face Stoke City in the Championship round 13. The Clarets have been impressive on home soil of late, and they are surely capable of taking advantage of Stoke’s shaky defence. Both Ashley Westwood and Darko Churlinov are sidelined with injuries, while Kevin Long ... Read More...

Reading and Norwich City go head to head at Select Car Leasing Stadium in a highly-anticipated Championship derby.

Blackburn Rovers

Cardiff City play host to Blackburn Rovers at their Cardiff City Stadium on day 13 of the new Championship campaign. The Bluebirds have been involved in some low-scoring matches in the first half of the season, and they should continue rely on their solid defence in Tuesday’s clash. Ireland international Callum Robinson should keep his place up front after scoring a late e... Read More...

After failing to turn their dominance into victory against Preston (0-0), Sunderland will look to get back on course when they face Blackpool on Tuesday evening.

Saturday’s football game at Kenilworth Road pits together Luton Town and Huddersfield Town, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table ahead of Matchday 13.

Ashton Gate Stadium will host Tuesday’s Championship game between Bristol City and Coventry City. The Robins suffered a dip in form, with the team extending their losing run to three game against Queens Park Rangers, and, no doubt, they are desperate to get back on course.

WBA play host to Swansea at the Hawthorns in what is a very important game for the hosts, who made a slow start to the season.
