QPR

WBA will be aiming to climb to automatic promotion places when they take on Queens Park Rangers at the Hawthorns on Matchday 9. The Baggies are undefeated in the 2021/2022 Championship season, but they have drawn the previous three league fixtures. Both Dara O’Shea and Matt Clarke remain in the recovery room, but there are no other absentees in the home team. The Hoops, on the ... Read More...

Peterborough

Coventry and Peterborough go head to head at Coventry Building Society Arena in the Championship round 9. The Sky Blues are a real force to be reckoned with at home, with the team eyeing their sixth consecutive win in front of home fans.

Bristol City

QPR will look to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Bournemouth when they welcome Bristol City to their Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium on Matchday 8. The Hoops continue with their habit of producing much better showings at home than on the travels, and it is no wonder they are seen as favourites to win Saturday’s clash. Even though both Lee Wallace and Sam Field remain in the reco ... Read More...

West Bromwich

Preston and WBA take on each other in a highly-anticipated Championship game at Deepdale. The Lilywhites have been in a fine form of late, with the team extending their unbeaten run to four games thanks to a 2-2 draw with Sheffield United. Preston aim to keep on climbing the standings, and we are positive that they will go for a win in Saturday’s derby. Tom Barkhuizen has been ... Read More...

Birmingham City

Saturday’s football game at Weston Homes Stadium pits together Peterborough United and Birmingham City, the two sides who sit in the opposite halves of the table ahead of Matchday 8. The newcomers do not seem to be competitive at this level, with the team losing each of their previous four league fixtures. Given their shaky defence, we do not believe that there is a big value i ... Read More...

Blackpool

Blackpool

Buoyed by a 2-0 win at Nottingham Forest, Middlesbrough will be aiming to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Blackpool at their Riverside Stadium. The Boro did well to put an end to their four-game winless run, but they do not want to stop now. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be former Norwich City midfielder Onel Hernandez, who opened ... Read More...

Luton Town play host to Swansea City at their Kenilworth Road on day 8 of the new Championship campaign. The Hatters have drawn the previous three league fixtures, and, as a result, they dropped to 13th place in the standings.

Huddersfield Town will be aiming to build on a thrilling 3-0 win over Blackpool when they face Nottingham Forest on day 8 of the new Championship campaign.

Buoyed by a 4-1 win over Birmingham City, Fulham will be aiming to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Reading at Craven Cottage. Serbia international Aleksandar Mitrovic has already netted six goals in the new Championship campaign, meaning that the opposition defenders should have him at bay.

Stoke City

All eyes will be on Pride Park when Derby County and Stoke City go head to head in the Championship round 8. The Rams made a slow start to the season, and, no doubt, Wayne Rooney feels pressure ahead of Saturday’s clash. Considering that Derby failed to find the net in three of their last four league fixtures, home win should not be considered. Both Colin Kazim-Richards and Kry ... Read More...
