Championship stats and tips

Friday 29th March

Bristol C v Leicester - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Turning up and winning at Ashton Gate is always difficult, but clearly E. Maresca has done enough as Leicester City boss to convince KickOff’s tipsters that he’s able to guide his team to just that - 27 have have tipped the away win in Friday’s Championship match between Bristol City and E. Maresca. If you wanted to do the same, decent odds of 1.73 can be grabbed just up the page.

Millwall v West Brom - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Some bettors shy away from the away win, but KO's ever-growing community of football tipsters are absolutely anticipating one as Carlos Corberan and his West Bromwich Albion team arrive at The Den on Friday afternoon. 8 of those users are predicting that Neil Harris's Millwall will suffer defeat in their own ground. With decent odds available, it may well be worth doing the same.

Cardiff v Sunderland - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Our buzzing hive of football tipsters clearly has a lot of optimism around Erol Bulut and his managerial skills, and ability to claim a win for Cardiff City on Friday afternoon. 16 have predicted him to guide his side to beat Sunderland. Here's hoping that their faith in him isn't misplaced.

Huddersfield v Coventry - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Claiming victory in the lions' den that is John Smith's Stadium is never an easy feat to pull off, but clearly Mark Robins has done enough as Coventry City boss to show our bettors that he’s capable of delivering exactly that - 17 have already bet on an away win in Friday’s Championship showdown between Huddersfield Town and Mark Robins. If you wanted to do the same, decent odds of 2.38 are currently on offer.

Hull v Stoke - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Just as fans always have done, Hull City's dedicated supporters expect high standards from their team and, in the opinion of KO's users, they may just be going home happy on Friday afternoon. 12 of our bettors are predicting that L. Rosenior's side will claim victory as Steven Schumacher's Stoke City visit KCOM Stadium. Will the wisdom of the crowd be proved correct? Or could we be set for a big upset?

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

The home win is far and away the most popular bet among KickOff's tipsters as Norwich City and Plymouth Argyle clash in the Championship on Friday. A total of 152 have bet on it, with top odds of 1.50 catching their eye.

Preston v Rotherham - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

Entertainment is the name of the game, and there's reason to expect plenty of it when Preston North End and Rotherham United go head-to-head on Friday afternoon in the Championship. Ryan Lowe and Leam Richardson's sides are more than talented enough to score in this fixture, and KickOff's smart members have faith in them to illustrate that at Deepdale. 11 of them have backed the match to contain at least 3 goals in total. 2.05 is the highest price available for their tip, and it could well be one to watch.

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

If you're looking for a good, simple bet today, many of KickOff's tipsters would be pointing you towards a home win as Queens Park Rangers and Birmingham City clash in the Championship on Friday. No less than 13 have backed it already, with highest odds of 2.05 proving to be enticing enough for many.

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

Sheffield Wednesday have consistently struggled against Swansea City in the Championship in recent years. The two clubs have met on 5 occasions since 2019, and Swansea City have been 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 2.5 Goals - over

We may have a high-scoring affair on our hands when Southampton and Middlesbrough clash on Friday afternoon in the Championship. Russell Martin and M. Carrick's squads have shown they know their way to goal, and KO's smart members are backing them to show that at St. Mary's Stadium. 16 of them are betting on the fixture to deliver at least 3 goals before full time. 1.50 is the most-enticing price available for their suggestion, and the fans in the ground will enjoy their afternoon as much as the tipsters if it comes in.

Blackburn v Ipswich - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

Entertainment is the name of the game, and there's reason to expect plenty of it when Blackburn Rovers and Ipswich Town meet on Friday evening in the Championship. J. Eustace and Kieran McKenna's sides are capable of delivering at the top of the park, and KO's smart bettors fancy them to demonstrate that at Ewood Park. 6 of them have backed the game to have at least 3 goals in total. 1.65 is the highest price among the UK's top bookmakers for that tip, and our tipsters won't be the only ones taking it at that price.

Watford v Leeds - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Pulling off a smash and grab at Vicarage Road is never an easy feat to pull off, but clearly D. Farke has done enough as Leeds United boss to convince KO's bettors that he’s got what it takes to deliver just that - 55 have have backed the away win in Friday’s Championship showdown between Watford and D. Farke. If you wanted to follow their lead, top odds of 1.57 are being given by some of the UK's top bookmakers.
