Championship stats and tips

Monday 29th April

Preston v Leicester - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's what's required of Preston North End boss Ryan Lowe on Monday. His players face Leicester City having been beaten in each of their last 3 Championship outings.

Tuesday 30th April

Coventry v Ipswich - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over

Ipswich Town have been the Championship's entertainers this term, at least in when it comes to producing goal-filled matches. No other club can boast more than their record of having been involved in 6 over 5.5 goal games this campaign. Can they make it 7 when they play Coventry City on Tuesday night? With odds of 8.00 available, it might be worth backing.

Saturday 4th May

Birmingham v Norwich - Double Chance - away win or draw

Luckily for them, it has been quite some time since Norwich City’s joyous fans watched their team get beaten in the Championship. D. Wagner’s men are now unbeaten in 5 outings, and he will be expecting that they can extend that run against Birmingham City at St. Andrew's Stadium on Saturday lunch time. Best odds of 1.62 are available to back Norwich City the double chance market.

Leeds v Southampton - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's the task facing Southampton boss Russell Martin on Saturday. His team faces Leeds United having lost each of their last 3 Championship outings.

M'Boro v Watford - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw

It may not be an honour they're all that enamoured with, but Watford currently lead all opposition in the Championship when it comes to games in which they have been level at both the break and the final whistle this season, with their tally now at 13 in 45 games. They will put that unwanted consistency to the test versus Middlesbrough at Riverside Stadium on Saturday, in a clash that could see yet another tie.

Plymouth v Hull - Double Chance - away win or draw

We all dream of our club suddenly becoming invincible, and for some fans that dream comes true. It has been weeks since Hull City’s joyous fans watched their lads get beaten in the Championship. L. Rosenior’s boys are now unbeaten in 6 games, and he'll be expecting that they can keep going against Plymouth Argyle at Home Park on Saturday lunch time. Top odds of 1.33 can be grabbed to back Hull City to avoid defeat yet again.

Rotherham v Cardiff - Double Chance - away win or draw

What a dreadful set of results for Rotherham United and their supporters, with their last Championship win now coming 5 games ago. Boss Leam Richardson has to find a remedy, and preferably right away. Will Cardiff City at AESSEAL New York Stadium on Saturday come too soon, or be a turning point?

Stoke v Bristol C - Double Chance - away win or draw

Every now and then we get a golden spell in football, and it has now been a while since since Bristol City’s merry followers watched their side get beaten in the Championship. Liam Manning’s men are now unbeaten in 7 games, and he'll be full of belief that they can extend that run against Stoke City at bet365 Stadium on Saturday lunch time. Best odds of 1.80 are available to back Bristol City to get the win or the draw.

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

Luckily for them, it has been quite some time since Sheffield Wednesday’s happy supporters watched their side suffer defeat in the Championship. D. Röhl’s squad is now unbeaten in 5 outings, and he will be full of belief that they can keep that streak running against Sunderland at Stadium of Light on Saturday lunch time. Best value odds of 1.53 can be taken advantage of to back Sheffield Wednesday to avoid defeat yet again.

Swansea v Millwall - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

We all love a game in which more than 4 goals fly in, but Millwall's long-suffering fans have now had to wait 24 games to see their team serve one up. Certainly they could be forgiven for craving some proper excitement by now. Will the long-overdue deluge of goals finally arrive on Saturday lunch time, as they face L. Williams's Swansea City at Liberty Stadium? With odds of 1.10 on there being under 4.5 goals, the UK's leading bookmakers certainly don’t think so.

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

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's exactly what must be done by West Bromwich Albion boss Carlos Corberan on Saturday. His team faces Preston North End having been beaten in each of their last 3 Championship matches.
