Swansea

Swansea

Stoke City and Swansea City meet in a clash between two inconsistent sides searching for stability. However, we predict a 2-1 home win due to Swansea's poor away record. The Potters’ home form offers some encouragement, collecting 1.50 points per game at the Bet365 Stadium and scoring 2.25 goals per match on their own turf. Their overall attacking output sits at 1.40 goals... Read More...

Preston

Preston

Oxford United take on Preston at Kassam Stadium in what promises to be a close Championship encounter, with our prediction leaning towards a 1-1 draw. The Yellow's form has dipped (DDWLD) with just a 20% win rate overall, but their home numbers remain competitive, averaging 3.00 total goals per match and hitting BTTS in 75% of those outings. Defensive issues persist, though�... Read More...

Southampton

Given Norwich City's poor form and Southampton's big ambitions, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 away win. The Canaries head into Saturday's clash in worrying form, collecting just 0.60 points per game across their last five and failing to win any of their previous four outings. Defensive issues remain glaring: they concede 1.80 goals per match overall and have yet ... Read More...

Sheffield United

Sheffield United

West Brom return to The Hawthorns hoping to stabilise their season after a poor run, but given Sheffield United's excellent form in November and December, we predict a 3-1 away win. Injuries to Collyer and Wallace are not a major concern for the Baggies, but the team’s inconsistency remains an issue. WBA score 1.50 goals per home match and concede just 1.00, and their xG a...

Wrexham

Hull City will look to recover from a heavy 4-1 loss to Middlesbrough and with with Wrexham rarely winning on the road, we predict a 2-1 home win. Despite their recent inconsistency, the Tigers remain one of the more attack-minded sides in the division, averaging 1.70 goals per game overall and an impressive 3.40 total goals per home match. Their expected goals numbers (1.18... Read More...

Stoke City

Ipswich Town are brimming with confidence following a 3-0 win over Coventry City and with Stoke City missing key defender, our prediction points toward a 1-0 home win. Ipswich Town have taken 1.80 points per game overall and looking particularly sharp going forward with 1.94 expected goals at home. Injuries to Clarke, Burns, Palmer, and Townsend limit Kieran McKenna’s rota... Read More...

Millwall

Derby aim to recover from a 3-1 loss to Leicester City and we predict that they will do so with a 2-1 win over Millwall. Derby continue to impress despite a long injury list, with Johnston, Morris, Ozoh, and Travis still sidelined — but the Rams have shown they can cope, winning three of their last five and averaging 1.4 goals per home game. Their home scoring consistency,... Read More...

Leicester

Leicester City are eager to build on a 3-1 win over Derby County, but with Bristol City being tough to beat at home, a 1-1 draw is o the cards at Ashston Gate Stadium. The Robins head into the Championship round 20 with no fresh injury worries and a solid home return of 1.8 points per game, winning 60% of their matches at Ashton Gate.

QPR and Birmingham City take on each other at Loftus Road in what promises to be a high-scoring 2-2 draw. The Hoops have been having their ups and downs of late, taking 1.30 points per game overall and showing a slight uptick recently with two home wins in a row. Their matches at Loftus Road tend to be chaotic, averaging 4.00 goals per game, with a 100% BTTS rate and a stron... Read More...

Watford will look to build on a 3-2 win over Norwich as they return to Vicarage Road aiming to strengthen their impressive home form.

Swansea finally stopped their losing streak with a morale-boosting win over Oxford United and given Portsmouth's dip in form, we predict that the South Wales outfit will emerge triumphant (1-0) in Tuesday's game as well, Vitor Matos’ side remain inconsistent, collecting just 0.70 points per game overall and struggling for defensive stability.

Southampton look to build on their 3–1 weekend win over Birmingham, and given their three-game winning run at St. Mary's, we predict that they will defeat WBA 2-0 in the Championship round 20.
