Watford

Watford

Norwich come into this clash with renewed confidence after a hard-fought 1-0 win over Charlton, but given Watford's recent signs of improvement, a 2-2 draw is on the cards at Carrow Road. The Canaries’ home profile remains solid: they score 1.60 goals per match, concede just 1.00, and produce 1.58 expected goals on average. However, they continue to struggle for defensive ...

Bristol City

Bristol City

A tight contest is expected at The Den when Millwall and Bristol City lock horns, with a 1-1 draw emerging as the most realistic outcome based on current form and metrics. Millwall’s recent dip in form—just one win in their last five—has been compounded by a lengthy injury list, though they at least avoided fresh setbacks in the goalless Boxing Day draw with Ipswich.

Hull City

Hull City are eager to claim a major scalp in their last game of the year, but with Middlesbrough being a real force to be reckoned with at home, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home win. Middlesbrough return to action after a 0-0 Boxing Day draw with Blackburn, a match that cost them physically as Alfie Jones, George Edmundson and Matt Targett all picked up knocks and ar...

Derby

Derby

Leicester City look to respond after a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Watford and with Derby suffering a dip in form, we predict a 2-1 home win. The Foxes have struggled for stability lately, taking just one win from their last five league outings, although their games remain highly entertaining with 90% BTTS and 3.40 goals per game at home. Despite their mixed form, Leicester ... Read More...

Ipswich

Coventry are eager to cement top position in the standings and given Ipswich's recent struggles on the road, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home win. Frank Lampard's men head into this clash after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Swansea City, a result that extended their impressive momentum and kept their perfect 100% home record intact (5/5 wins, 3.00 PPG).

Sheffield United

Sheffield United

Wrexham host Sheffield United at the Racecourse Ground as the Dragons look to improve their inconsistent form. However, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 away win as the Blades impressed in a 3-0 win over Birmingham City at the weekend. Wrexham have been solid at home recently, averaging 2.80 goals per game and keeping clean sheets in 40% of home matches, but their away stru... Read More...

Bristol City

West Bromwich and Bristol City square off against each other in what promises to be an exciting Championship clash. With WBA turning their Hawthorns into a real fortress, 2-1 is our predicted outcome for this encounter.

Stoke City and Preston take on each other at Bet365 Stadium in what looks set to be a tactical Championship encounter, with 1-1 our predicted outcome. The Potters are inconsistent this season, with 1.2 PPG overall and home form slightly better at 1.8 PPG. They score 2.2 goals per home game and concede 1.0, showing some solidity at the Bet365 Stadium. However, BTTS only occur... Read More...

Hull City

Hull City

Hillsborough will host Friday's Championship game between Sheffield Wednesday and Hull City. Given the Owls' financial problems and Hull City's fine form, we predict a 3-1 away win. The Owls are running down a blind alley, sitting bottom of the league with just 0.43 PPG, largely due to an 18-point deduction and ongoing financial issues. Their home form is poor (0.18 PPG) and...

Portsmouth take on QPR in a Championship clash where the visitors clearly have the edge. Given Queens Park's fine form, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 away win. The Pompey are struggling this season with just 0.8 points per game overall and a 20% win rate. At home, they fare slightly better (1.4 PPG), but their attack is limited (0.8 goals per match) and 60% of ga... Read More...

Oxford United host Southampton in what looks like a one-sided clash based on form and stats. Therefore, we predict a 2-1 away win.
