Millwall

Millwall

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. Their home scoring consistency, ... Read More...

Leicester

Leicester

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. The Robins head into the Championship round 20 with no fresh injury worries and a solid home return of 1.8 points per game, winning 60% of their matches at Ashton Gate. They’ve been defensively reliable at h ... Read More...

Birmingham City

Birmingham City

QPR and Birmingham City take on each other at Loftus Road in what promises to be a high-scoring 2-2 draw. The Hoops have been having their ups and downs of late, taking 1.30 points per game overall and showing a slight uptick recently with two home wins in a row. Their matches at Loftus Road tend to be chaotic, averaging 4.00 goals per game, with a 100% BTTS rate and a stron ... Read More...

Sheffield Wednesday

Watford will look to build on a 3-2 win over Norwich as they return to Vicarage Road aiming to strengthen their impressive home form. As they welcome rock-bottom Sheffield Wednesday to their Vicarage Road, our prediction leans toward a 2-0 home win. The Hornets have been notably stronger on home soil, averaging 2.20 points per game and scoring 2.00 goals per home match, back ... Read More...

Portsmouth

Portsmouth

Swansea finally stopped their losing streak with a morale-boosting win over Oxford United and given Portsmouth's dip in form, we predict that the South Wales outfit will emerge triumphant (1-0) in Tuesday's game as well, Vitor Matos’ side remain inconsistent, collecting just 0.70 points per game overall and struggling for defensive stability. The Swans concede 2.00 goals p ... Read More...

West Bromwich

West Bromwich

Southampton look to build on their 3–1 weekend win over Birmingham, and given their three-game winning run at St. Mary's, we predict that they will defeat WBA 2-0 in the Championship round 20. Tonda Eckert’s men average 1.75 PPG at home and have shown defensive stability on their own turf, conceding just 0.75 goals per home match with 50% clean sheets. Going forward, the ... Read More...

Norwich

As Sheffield United head into this fixture in excellent form, winning each of their last four Championship games, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-0 home win. Chris Wilder’s side have rediscovered their defensive steel at Bramall Lane, keeping 80% clean sheets at home while conceding just 0.60 goals per match. In attack, they remain efficient, scoring 1.80 goals per ... Read More...

Coventry

Coventry

Following a 1-1 draw with Wrexham, Preston aim to return to winning ways, but given the number of absentees in the home team, we predict a 3-1 win over Coventry City. The Lilywhites have been averaging 1.40 PPG at home, with goals rarely lacking—Preston matches feature 2.80 goals per game, and their 80% BTTS rate shows how often they trade blows. Defensively, however, the ... Read More...

Charlton welcome Middlesbrough to The Valley looking to halt a worrying slide after four defeats in five. Given the lack of confidence in the home team, our prediction points toward a 2-1 away win. Charlton's home numbers are notably stronger, returning 1.75 PPG with 50% wins, though defensive issues persist—Charlton concede 1.75 goals per home match and hold only 25% clea ... Read More...

Oxford United

Blackburn host Oxford at Ewood Park in a matchup between two inconsistent sides searching for rhythm. Given Oxford's struggles on the road, 2-1 is our predicted outcome for Tuesday's clash. Rovers’ form has been unpredictable, collecting 1.40 PPG overall, but their home record remains a concern with just 0.80 PPG and only 20% wins. Despite scoring 2.60 goals per game at ho ...

Swansea City are desperate to get back on course, but given the lack of confidence in the team after five straight league defeats, we predict that they will play out a 2-2 draw with Oxford United this weekend.

Southampton welcome Birmingham City to St Mary’s in excellent form, having won four of their last five league matches. Therefore, we are tempted to place our bets on a 2-1 home win. The Saints average 1.80 goals per game and concede just 0.75 at home, showing a strong balance in both phases of play. Despite still missing Charles, Edozie, Jelert, Stewart, and Roerslev Rasmu ...
