Southampton host QPR in a Championship clash, looking to maintain momentum after a 1-1 draw with Charlton. As Tonda Eckert's men have turned their St. Mary's Stadium into a real fortress, we predict a 2-1 home win.

Portsmouth

Wrexham and Portsmouth face each other in an eagerly-awaited Championship game. As both sides are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach, we predict a 2-2 draw. The Dragons have been unpredictable of late, but their recent 5-3 thriller over Ipswich shows they can score freely even when the likes of Cacace, James, and O’Connor are sidelined. Wrexham averages 1.6 goals pe... Read More...

Middlesbrough take on Leicester City in a Championship clash that sees the second-placed Boro aiming to extend their fine run of form.

Hull City return home looking to recover from their 3–1 defeat to QPR, a match in which Japan forward Yu Hirakawa picked up a knock and remains doubtful.

Blackburn Rovers look to build on their dramatic 1–0 derby win over Preston, secured by a last-minute header from Yuki Ohashi.

All eyes will be on Bramall Lane when Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday face each other in the Steel City derby.
