Norwich

Norwich

West Bromwich Albion look to bounce back from their 3-2 defeat to Middlesbrough, but given Norwich City's promising form, we predict a 2-2 draw at the Hawthorns. Eric Ramsay's side average 1.50 points per home game and score 1.75 goals per match on home turf, compared to only 1.00 per game away. However, defensive issues remain — WBA have kept just 1 clean sheet in their l ... Read More...

Blackburn Rovers

Swansea will look to extend their solid home form as they host struggling Blackburn Rovers. As the Riversiders are hit by injuries, our prediction leans toward a 1-0 home win. The Swans shared the spoils with Birmingham at the weekend, but both Idah and Samuels-Smith remain sidelined. Even so, Swansea have been strong at the Swansea.com Stadium, collecting 2.33 points per ho ... Read More...

Birmingham City

Sheffield Wednesday continue to struggle near the bottom, coming into this clash after a narrow 1-0 defeat to Portsmouth. The Owls are stuck at the bottom of the table and given their financial issues, we predict a 2-1 away win. Although there are no fresh injuries, their lengthy absentee list remains a major obstacle. Henrik Pedersen's troops have failed to win any of their ... Read More...

Preston continue to battle inconsistency as they return to Deepdale following a 1-0 defeat to Derby County. As Preston and Hull City seem to be evenly matched at the moment, we predict a 1-1 draw. Robbie Brady remains sidelined, but there are no new injury concerns for the hosts. Preston’s home form has been unconvincing, collecting just 1.00 point per game, with only 17% ... Read More...

QPR

Oxford United and QPR face each other at Kassam Stadium in the Championship round 28. As both sides struggled offensively at the weekend, we predict a low-scoring 1-1 draw. The U’s are winless in four league matches and have averaged just 0.80 goals per game overall, failing to score in 40% of their fixtures. Their home form offers slight encouragement—1.40 points per ga ... Read More...

Bristol City

Ipswich continue their charge toward the automatic promotion spots, arriving in this fixture on the back of four straight wins and boasting a perfect home record in recent weeks. Given Bristol City's struggles up front on the travels, we predict a 1-0 home win.

Millwall

Buoyed by a 2-1 win over Leicester, Coventry City aim to cement top position in the Championship standings. Given Millwall's offensive struggles on the road, we predict a 1-0 home win. The Sky Blues average 2.25 points per game at home, winning 75% of matches and conceding just 0.75 goals per game. Haji Wright is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring the ...

Derby

Charlton head into this clash boosted by a narrow 1-0 win over nine-man Sheffield United, but injuries to Edwards and Hernandez limit Nathan Jones’ options. As Charlton and Derby seem to be evenly matched, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Addicks’ numbers underline their inconsistency: just 0.90 points per game overall, though they improve to 1.40 PPG at home.

Swansea City host Birmingham City in a Championship clash where both sides are free of fresh injury concerns following their recent FA Cup outings.
