Coventry

Coventry

Southampton look to respond after an unexpected loss to Norwich City, but with league leaders Coventry enjoying a season to remember, we predict a 1-1 draw. Tonda Eckert’s side average 2.30 goals per game and have won 80% of their home matches, with games at St Mary’s producing 3.60 goals on average. Defensive issues remain, though, with just 10% clean sheets overall and... Read More...

Norwich

Norwich

Preston host Norwich City in a clash between two sides trending toward open, goal-heavy games. With the Canaries struggling on the road, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 home win. The Lilywhites are unbeaten in five, picking up 1.90 points per game overall and scoring in every match so far this run. At Deepdale, Preston average 3.00 total goals per game, with BTTS l...

Millwall

Millwall

Blackburn Rovers host Millwall aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to Portsmouth and given Millwall's defensive struggles on the road, 2-1 is our predicted outcome. The Riversiders have picked up 1.50 points per game overall, conceding just 1.00 goal per match, but home form has been less convincing with only a 20% win rate at Ewood Park. Goals are usually on the agenda, with BTT... Read More...

Wrexham

Wrexham

Swansea City welcome Wrexham aiming to build some momentum after an inconsistent run of results. Given Wrexham's difficulties on the road, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home win. The Swans have won two of their last five matches but continue to leak goals, conceding an average of 2.00 per game overall. At home, performances have been slightly more stable, with a 40% win...

Derby

Derby

Despite suffering a dip in form, we predict that Derby will defeat Sheffield Wednesday 2-1 in the closing match of round 21 as the Owls are running down a blind alley. Following a 18-point deduction due to financial problems, Sheffield Wednesday are stuck at the bottom of the Championship standings. With the team conceding 2.00 goals per game at home of late, home win should... Read More...

Watford

Wrexham return to the Racecourse Ground after a disappointing 2–0 midweek defeat to Hull City and given their fine home record, we predict that they will hold Watford to a 2-2 draw on Saturday afternoon. The midweek match again highlighted the impact of their lengthy injury list. With Brunt, Cannon, Lee, Rodriguez, and Ward all sidelined, the continued absence of Elliot Le... Read More...

Blackburn Rovers

Blackburn Rovers

Portsmouth are eager to put an end to their three-game losing run, but given Blackburn's fine run on the road, our prediction points toward a 1-1 draw. The Pompey head into Saturday's clash on the back of a worrying run of form, having lost four of their last five matches in the Championship. Their attack has badly misfired during this period, scoring just 0.7 goals per game... Read More...

Hull City

Following a 1-1 draw with Derby, Millwall aim to get back on course and given their fine home record, we predict that they will defeat Hull City 3-1 on Saturday afternoon. The Lions have handled their lengthy injury list surprisingly well, collecting 10 points from their last five games and boasting an impressive 80% home win rate across their previous 10 outings.

QPR

Middlesbrough head into this clash in excellent spirits after a deserved 2–1 midweek win over Charlton, extending their winning run to three matches. We predict that they will give fans yet another reason this weekend by beating QPR with the same outcome (2-1).

Ipswich

Ipswich

Leicester City welcome an in-form Ipswich Town in a matchup that looks far more balanced than the league table might suggest. Therefore, our prediction leans toward a 1-1 draw. The Foxes have taken just 1.1 points per game overall, winning only 30% of their matches and failing to keep a single clean sheet this season. Their home form is similarly shaky, with 1.25 goals score... Read More...

Bristol City

Coventry City host Bristol City in what could be a high-tempo Championship clash, but with the league leaders eventually emerging triumphant (2-1). The Sky Blues have been in impressive form, winning three of their last five games overall and taking all four home fixtures in that run, averaging 4.25 goals scored per home match.

Charlton

Birmingham City welcome Charlton in what promises to be a competitive League One encounter, with our prediction pointing towards a 2-1 win due to the Blues' fine home record.
