QPR

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). Despite still missing Fry, Lenihan, and Morris, Michael Carrick’s side have adapted impressively, highlighted b ... Read More...

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

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. Overall, they score 2.2 goals per game while co ... Read More...

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. Chris Davies' men have enjoyed solid home form this season, winning four of their last five at St. Andrew’s, scoring an average of 4.0 goals per game at home. Overall, Birmingham are scoring 1.9 goals ... Read More...

Swansea

Swansea

Stoke City and Swansea City meet in a clash between two inconsistent sides searching for stability. However, we predict a 2-1 home win due to Swansea's poor away record. The Potters’ home form offers some encouragement, collecting 1.50 points per game at the Bet365 Stadium and scoring 2.25 goals per match on their own turf. Their overall attacking output sits at 1.40 goals ... Read More...

Preston

Oxford United take on Preston at Kassam Stadium in what promises to be a close Championship encounter, with our prediction leaning towards a 1-1 draw. The Yellow's form has dipped (DDWLD) with just a 20% win rate overall, but their home numbers remain competitive, averaging 3.00 total goals per match and hitting BTTS in 75% of those outings.

Southampton

Given Norwich City's poor form and Southampton's big ambitions, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 away win. The Canaries head into Saturday's clash in worrying form, collecting just 0.60 points per game across their last five and failing to win any of their previous four outings. Defensive issues remain glaring: they concede 1.80 goals per match overall and have yet ... Read More...

Sheffield United

West Brom return to The Hawthorns hoping to stabilise their season after a poor run, but given Sheffield United's excellent form in November and December, we predict a 3-1 away win. Injuries to Collyer and Wallace are not a major concern for the Baggies, but the team’s inconsistency remains an issue. WBA score 1.50 goals per home match and concede just 1.00, and their xG a ...

Wrexham

Hull City will look to recover from a heavy 4-1 loss to Middlesbrough and with with Wrexham rarely winning on the road, we predict a 2-1 home win. Despite their recent inconsistency, the Tigers remain one of the more attack-minded sides in the division, averaging 1.70 goals per game overall and an impressive 3.40 total goals per home match.

Ipswich Town are brimming with confidence following a 3-0 win over Coventry City and with Stoke City missing key defender, our prediction points toward a 1-0 home win. Ipswich Town have taken 1.80 points per game overall and looking particularly sharp going forward with 1.94 expected goals at home.

Derby aim to recover from a 3-1 loss to Leicester City and we predict that they will do so with a 2-1 win over Millwall. Derby continue to impress despite a long injury list, with Johnston, Morris, Ozoh, and Travis still sidelined — but the Rams have shown they can cope, winning three of their last five and averaging 1.4 goals per home game.

Leicester City are eager to build on a 3-1 win over Derby County, but with Bristol City being tough to beat at home, a 1-1 draw is o the cards at Ashston Gate Stadium.
