Southampton

Southampton

Birmingham City look to return to winning ways after a 1-1 Boxing Day draw with Derby, but they are without key defender Christoph Klarer, who is suspended. Therefore, a 1-1 draw is on the cards at St. Andrews' Stadium. The Blues’ home form has been solid compared to their away struggles, earning 2.20 points per game at St Andrew’s, but they concede 0.80 goals per home m... Read More...

QPR

West Bromwich host QPR looking to bounce back after a 1-2 Boxing Day loss to Bristol City, but with the two teams being evenly matched, our prediction leans toward a 1-1 draw. The Baggies are missing Bielik, Collyer, and Wallace through injury, which limits defensive options. Home form is slightly better than their overall performance, averaging 2.00 points per game at The H... Read More...

Sheffield Wednesday host Blackburn Rovers in a clash overshadowed by the Owls’ ongoing financial struggles, which have affected squad depth and morale this season.

Portsmouth look to respond after a 1-1 Boxing Day draw with QPR, a result that extended their unbeaten run to three but highlighted their ongoing issues in attack.

As Oxford United and Swansea City seem to be evenly matched ahead of Monday's clash, our prediction leans toward a 1-1 draw.

Watford

Norwich come into this clash with renewed confidence after a hard-fought 1-0 win over Charlton, but given Watford's recent signs of improvement, a 2-2 draw is on the cards at Carrow Road. The Canaries’ home profile remains solid: they score 1.60 goals per match, concede just 1.00, and produce 1.58 expected goals on average. However, they continue to struggle for defensive ...

Bristol City

Bristol City

A tight contest is expected at The Den when Millwall and Bristol City lock horns, with a 1-1 draw emerging as the most realistic outcome based on current form and metrics. Millwall’s recent dip in form—just one win in their last five—has been compounded by a lengthy injury list, though they at least avoided fresh setbacks in the goalless Boxing Day draw with Ipswich.
