Preston play host to Millwall at Deepdale in a Championship clash where form and consistency are key. Therefore, we are predict a 1-0 win for the in-form visitors. The Lilywhites have been inconsistent of late, averaging just 0.9 points per game overall and scoring 0.7 goals per match, while conceding 1.4.

Oxford United and West Bromwich Albion square off against each other at the Kassam Stadium in what promises to be a tense Championship clash, with 1-1 our predicted outcome.

Swansea

Ipswich Town are in strong form, coming off a 2-0 midweek win at Watford. Despite injuries to Philogene, Townsend, and Young, we predict a 3-1 home win as the trio was not missed at all in the last league match. The promotion-chasing Tractor Boys have been particularly dominant at home, with 4 wins and 1 draw in the last 5 home games, scoring 2 goals per home match on averag... Read More...

Stoke City

Coventry sit top of the Championship, coming off a 2-1 win at Sheffield United, and have no fresh injury concerns. As Frank Lampard's men have turned their Coventry Building Society Arena into a real fortress, we predict that they will defeat Stoke City 2-0 on Matchday 35.

Wrexham

Charlton Athletic take on Wrexham in a Championship clash where injuries could play a decisive role. As Wrexham have no new selection worries, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 away win. The Addicks are missing Edwards, Godden, and Knibbs, while Lloyd Jones is a major doubt after picking up a knock in their midweek 1-1 draw with West Bromwich Albion. Their home form ... Read More...

Portsmouth and Hull City meet in a clash between two sides trending in very different directions. As both teams are likely to adopt an attack-mindedd approach in Saturday's encounter, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-2 draw. Portsmouth’s long injury list continues to hurt their rhythm, something clearly visible in the 2-1 defeat to Wrexham, where their reduced squad... Read More...

Leicester City remain in crisis mode despite ending their winless streak with a 1-1 draw against Middlesbrough. The Foxes are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday's game and given Leicester City's attacking potential, we predict a 2-2 draw.

Derby County look to revive their playoff ambitions after a frustrating 4-2 defeat to Hull City, though the positive news is the absence of any fresh injuries. As Blackburn continue to struggle on the travels, we predict a 2-1 home win.

Bristol City head into this clash full of confidence after a 2-1 victory over Blackburn Rovers, and although defender Luke McNally remains sidelined, his absence was barely felt at the weekend.

A struggling Stoke City side are desperate to get back on course, entering this match winless in eight Championship outings. With Oxford United struggling up front, a low-scoring 1-1 draw is on the cards at Bet365 Stadium.
