Championship stats and tips

Friday 29th March

Bristol C v Leicester - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring matches aren't always boring, but fans of Bristol City have had lots of chances to test that theory this term. 23 of their side's matches in the Championship have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will E. Maresca and his Leicester City side be capable of adding some goals into this match on Friday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?

Millwall v West Brom - Double Chance - away win or draw

Happy days! It has now been a long while since West Bromwich Albion’s joyous followers watched their lads lose in the Championship. Carlos Corberan’s boys are now unbeaten in 6 outings, and he'll be telling them that they can extend that run against Millwall at The Den on Friday afternoon. Best odds of 1.38 can be taken advantage of to back West Bromwich Albion the double chance market.

Cardiff v Sunderland - Double Chance - home win or draw

What a miserable succession of results for Sunderland and their faithful followers, with their last Championship success now coming 7 matches ago. Boss M. Dodds needs to find a way out, and quickly. Will Cardiff City at Cardiff City Stadium on Friday be the one in which they turn it around?

Huddersfield v Coventry - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw

John Smith's Stadium plays host as Huddersfield Town and Coventry City go head-to-head on Friday afternoon, in what could prove to be a proper ding-dong battle. Andre Breitenreiter's side have the most score draws of any side in the competition - 12 in 38 outings. An extension of that record has best odds of 4.50.

Hull v Stoke - Double Chance - home win or draw

L. Rosenior and his Hull City troops have developed a handy way of getting something from almost every Championship fixture they play. They're unbeaten in 7 in the Championship now, so Steven Schumacher and his Stoke City charges will have their work cut out if they're to get the win at KCOM Stadium on Friday.

Norwich v Plymouth - Win / Draw / Win - home win

There are some wise old heads with plenty of experience in KickOff's community of football bettors. On Friday, 6 have decided to bet on Norwich City to get the win versus Plymouth Argyle at Carrow Road. With odds of 1.50 from some of the UK's leading bookmakers, available on KickOff, they'll be keeping fingers crossed that D. Wagner inspires his troops and delivers that much-needed result.

Preston v Rotherham - Double Chance - home win or draw

Following your football club can be hard going, and Rotherham United’s hardy follows know that only too well right now. Their team, led by Leam Richardson, has not won any of their last 14 Championship matches, and few will be expecting them to end that run against Preston North End at Deepdale on Friday afternoon. Backing opposition gaffer Ryan Lowe to add another to that list by inspiring his team to either a win or draw can be bet on at best odds of 1.14.

QPR v Birmingham - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's exactly what must be done by Birmingham City boss Tony Mowbray on Friday. His players face Queens Park Rangers having lost each of their last 3 Championship matches.

Sheff Wed v Swansea - Double Chance - away win or draw

Sheffield Wednesday simply have not been able to find a way past Swansea City in the Championship in recent years. The two clubs have clashed on 5 occasions since 2019, and Swansea City have gone unbeaten in them all. Friday's game at Hillsborough could be a really difficult one for D. Röhl & co.

Southampton v M'Boro - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

Middlesbrough's recent outings in the Championship have delivered spills and thrills aplenty, but it has been some time since M. Carrick's players treated their fans to the kind of wild ride they'll remember for years to come. There have been under 4.5 goals in every one of their last 19 matches.

Blackburn v Ipswich - Double Chance - away win or draw

What a dreadful set of results for Blackburn Rovers and their supporters, with their last Championship victory now coming 8 games ago. Boss J. Eustace simply must find a remedy, and preferably right away. Will Ipswich Town at Ewood Park on Friday come too soon, or be a turning point?

Watford v Leeds - Half Time / Full Time - away / away

Those that favour the half time/full time market should pay attention to Leeds United. D. Farke's side has been incredibly commanding in recent Championship matches, leading at half time in each of their last 3 and going on to win them all at full time. Watford on Friday night could well be more of the same.
