Championship stats and tips

Bolton v Preston - Double Chance - away win or draw

Bolton Wanderers have found something of a bogey team in Preston North End in the Championship in recent years. The two teams have clashed on 6 occasions since 2015, and Preston North End have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Macron Stadium could be a really difficult one for S. Schumacher & co.

Bristol C v Millwall - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

The 5+ goal game may be a rare beast, but Millwall's dedicated followers have now been waiting 30 matches to watch their club take part in one. A frustrating statistic in anyone's book. Could the streak come to an end on Saturday afternoon, as they face M. Skubala's Bristol City at Ashton Gate? With odds of 1.11 on there being 4 goals or fewer being scored, the bookmakers are making their thoughts on the matter perfectly clear.

Charlton v Derby - Both Teams To Score - yes

Charlton Athletic followers have come to expect drama at each end when their team plays in the Championship, with both teams having scored in each of their last 7 matches. Derby County on Saturday afternoon should be another goal-fest.

M'Boro v Lincoln - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

It should be goals, goals, goals when Middlesbrough and Lincoln City face off on Saturday afternoon in the Championship. K.

Norwich v West Brom - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

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

Stoke v Swansea - Win / Draw / Win - away win

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's exactly what must be done by Stoke City boss M. Robins on Saturday. His side face Swansea City having lost each of their last 4 Championship outings.

Sheff Utd v Birmingham - Double Chance - away win or draw

Luckily for them, it has been quite some time since Birmingham City’s happy fans watched their side lose in the Championship. C. Davies’s squad is now unbeaten in 5 outings, and he'll be telling them that they can keep that streak running against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Saturday evening. Best value odds of 1.50 are available to back Birmingham City to avoid defeat yet again.

Burnley v West Ham - Double Chance - away win or draw

Trekking across the width and breadth of the country to support your club can be a tough old business, and Burnley’s long-suffering follows know that better than most at the moment. Their club, led by N. Hayen, has now failed to win any of their last 12 Championship matches, and there will be little hope they can end that run against West Ham United at Turf Moor on Sunday afternoon.
