West Bromwich

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. Preston head into the match following a goalless draw with Sunderland, and they are likely to rely on their rock-solid defence aga ... Read More...

Swansea

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. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be pacey winger Ismaila Sarr, who found the ne ... Read More...

Millwall

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. The Millers aim to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Wigan Athletic, but the midweek clash will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side.

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

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. Both sides are eyeing automatic promotion, and, no, there will be fireworks when they meet on Tuesday evening.

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.

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.
