Stoke City

Stoke City

Sheffield United are brimming with confidence following three consecutive league wins and given Stoke City’s ups and down on the road, our prediction leans toward a 3-1 home win. The Blades have found their best form in the year finale, with the team finally escaping the relegation zone. Their expected goals numbers of 1.87 at home are a positive sign and we predict that t ... Read More...

West Bromwich

West Bromwich

Queens Park Rangers host West Bromwich at Loftus Road in a Championship clash where both sides are struggling for consistency. However, we predict a 2-1 home win due to West Brom's dreadful losing run on the road. The Hoops have scored 1.10 goals per game overall, conceding 1.50, and see both teams score in 60% of their matches. The good news for the hosts is that Ziyad Lark ... Read More...

Wrexham

Wrexham

Preston host Wrexham at Deepdale in what looks set to be an open, attacking clash. Therefore, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 home win. The Lilywhites have been strong at home, winning 60% of their matches and scoring 1.60 goals per game, while conceding 1.20. Despite injuries to McCann, Gibson, Brady, Potts, and Vukcevic, these absences were barely felt in a recen ... Read More...

Coventry

Coventry City have been producing excellent displays in the Championship of late, but with given their recent negative record against Ipswich Town, a 2-2 draw is on the cards at Portman Road. The Tractor Boys have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team beating Hull City, losing to Oxford United, while sharing the spoils with Blackburn Rovers. Ipswich, though, ...

Millwall

Bristol City welcome Millwall to Ashton Gate in what promises to be an evenly contested Championship clash (2-2). The hosts have been inconsistent of late, recording a 1.60 points-per-game average and scoring 1.20 goals per match overall, though they are more potent at home with 1.60 goals per game. Defensively, Bristol City concede 1.20 goals on average, with clean sheets i ... Read More...

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday

Despite being on a three-game winless run, we predict that Blackburn will record a 2-0 win over rock-bottom Sheffield Wednesday side on Matchday 19. The Riversiders have failed to keep a clean sheet at home this season, but they will not have a better chance than this to do so. You should know that Blackburn have been averaging exactly 2.00 goals per game in the last five me ... Read More...

Norwich

Norwich

Watford head into this clash in far stronger shape, especially at Vicarage Road where they’ve picked up 2.20 points per game. Therefore, we predict that they will record a 2-1 win over Norwich on Saturday afternoon. Norwich's attacking output at home (1.80 goals per match) pairs well with solid defensive numbers, conceding only 0.80 on average. The Hornets also post an imp ... Read More...

Portsmouth

Portsmouth

Charlton and Portsmouth face each other in what promises to be a tight 2-1 home win. Charlton’s form remains highly inconsistent, and the hosts now face a significant setback after Amari’I Bell picked up an injury — a problematic blow given his influence down the flank. Still, their home performances are far more convincing, averaging 1.75 points per game with a strong ... Read More...

Middlesbrough

Hull City aim to build on a 2-1 win over Stoke City, but with Middlesbrough producing a fine performance in their victory over Derby County, we are tempted to place our bets on a 1-1 draw. The Tigers have been producing fine performances at home of late, with the team averaging 2.00 points per game at their MKM Stadium. Cody Drameh is rated doubtful for Friday’s clash, but ...

Ipswich

Ipswich

With Blackburn Rovers facing significant selection issues, we predict that Ipswich Town are going to emerge triumphant (2-1) in Tuesday's postponed fixture. Taylor Gardner-Hickman’s suspension, combined with several existing injuries, leaves Blackburn short at the back — a worrying scenario given their recent numbers. At home, they have been far from convincing, averagin ... Read More...
