West Bromwich

Wednesday’s football game at Deepdale will bring down the curtain on day 13 of the new Championship campaign. The Lilywhites continue to struggle in front of goal, and it is no surprise they failed to score in the previous four league fixtures.

Watford and Swansea go head to head at Vicarage Road on day 13 of the new Championship campaign. The Hornets produced their best display of the season at the weekend, with the team rolling over Stoke City 4-0, and they must be brimming with confidence ahead of Wednesday’s showdown.

Rotherham United and Millwall, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Championship standings, take on each other at Aesseal New York Stadium on Wednesday evening.

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.

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.

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.
