Portsmouth

Portsmouth

Carrow Road will host Friday’s clash between Norwich City and Portsmouth. As Portsmouth are low on confidence following a heavy 6-1 loss to QPR, we predict a 1-0 home win. The Canaries come off a 1-0 win over Charlton, with All Bishop, Swanson, and Chaplin pushing for a start despite a long injury list. Their recent form (WWLWWLWWLW) is excellent, earning 2.10 points per g ... Read More...

Bristol City

The Valley will host Friday's clash between Charlton Athletic and Bristol City. As both sides have been involved in some low-scoring games of late, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Addicks head into this game looking to bounce back from a 1–0 defeat to Norwich, with no fresh injury concerns. Their recent form (DWLDDLWWDL) has been steady rather than spectacular, built on defensi ... Read More...

Blackburn Rovers

Birmingham City return to league action looking to respond after a narrow 1–0 loss to Derby, but they remain hampered by injuries to Buchanan, Cochrane, and Wagner. Anyhow, we predict a 2-2 draw as both Birmingham City and Blackburn are capable of scoring.

Millwall

Middlesbrough take on Millwall in a highly-anticipated Championship clash with both sides pushing for promotion. As both teams are likely to adopt a cautious approach in Friday's game, we predict a 1-1 draw. Boro’s recent form has been steady, but their home performances are less convincing, winning just 20% of those matches and scoring only 0.60 goals per game. Still, the ... Read More...

Swansea City take on Championship leaders Coventry City after a tough 2-0 loss to Wrexham in the Welsh derby. Anyhow, we predict a 1-0 away win as Coventry City are enjoying a season to remember under Frank Lampard.

Leicester

Watford and Leicester City go head to head in a showdown between a mid-table side and struggling visitors. Therefore, our prediction points toward 3-0 home win. The Hornets have shown mixed form in recent weeks, winning just 30% of their last 10 matches, but they remain hard to break down at home, keeping clean sheets in 25% of home games. Watford score 1.25 goals per home g ... Read More...
