EFL Championship predictions

Championship stats and tips

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

Coventry City have clearly impressed our tipsters of late, as 13 of them are predicting F. Lampard and his side to get the away win when they visit Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park in the Championship on Friday night. With a proven track record of winning bets, who are we to argue? If you felt the urge to go with their tip, 2.00 roughly where the UK's leading bookmakers are currently placing it.

Derby v Oxford Utd - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like tipping goals and choosing a winner, then the upcoming fixture between Derby County and Oxford United could be worth a look. J. Eustace's side have lost 11 games this term in which both sides have scored. That's the most in the Championship.

Millwall v QPR - Double Chance - away win or draw

Luckily for them, it has been quite some time since Queens Park Rangers’s merry fans watched their lads suffer defeat in the Championship. J. Stéphan’s squad is now unbeaten in 5 outings, and he will be telling them that they can keep going against Millwall at The Den on Saturday lunch time. Top odds of 2.20 can be grabbed to back Queens Park Rangers to get the win or the draw.

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

A home win seems to be the most popular pick among the wise and well-informed members of KickOff as Portsmouth and Leicester City clash in the Championship on Saturday. In total 7 have bet on it, with largest odds of 2.40 catching their eye.

Bristol C v Norwich - Over / Under 3.5 Goals - under

Supporters have seen 3 goals or less in all of Norwich City's last 14 Championship outings. As they face R. Hodgson's Bristol City at Ashton Gate on Saturday, the smart money may well be backing more of the same.

Hull v Birmingham - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Saturday afternoon, then the clash between Hull City and Birmingham City could be worth checking out. S. Jakirović's team lead the Championship in most matches with at least 3 goals scored so far this season. 27 of their Championship games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from C. Davies's men could prevent more of the same.

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

E. Ramsay and his West Bromwich Albion side have gained a convenient habit of taking something from just about every Championship fixture they play. They're unbeaten in 7 in the Championship now, so P. Heckingbottom and his Preston North End charges will need to be on top of their game if they're to get the win at Deepdale on Saturday.

Sheff Wed v Charlton - 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 Sheffield Wednesday’s dogged old follows know that only too well at the moment. Their club, led by H. Pedersen, is now winless in their previous 36 Championship matches, and there will be little hope they can end that run against Charlton Athletic at Hillsborough on Saturday afternoon. Backing opposition manager N. Jones to add to their misery by inspiring his lads to anything other than a defeat can be backed at top odds of 1.18.

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

Southampton would never admit to aiming for anything but victory in a match, but clearly KO's members believe they're capable meet those lofty aims right now, as 11 of them are backing W. Still and his side to claim an away win when they visit Swansea City at Liberty Stadium in the Championship on Saturday afternoon. What a fabulous result that would be should it come through, for the visitors and our bettors alike. If you felt the urge to go with the crowd, 1.85 is about the best value you’ll find.

Watford v Sheff Utd - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

Games with 5 goals or more don’t come around every day, but Watford's loyal fans have now been waiting 23 matches to watch their side serve one up. A frustrating statistic in anyone's book. Will the long-overdue deluge of goals finally arrive on Saturday afternoon, as they face C. Wilder's Sheffield United at Vicarage Road? With odds of 1.14 on there being under 4.5 goals, the bookmakers certainly don’t think so.

Wrexham v Stoke - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - over

Each of Stoke City's last 10 Championship games has had two or more goals, suggesting that entertainment could be on its way as they battle it out with Wrexham on Saturday afternoon.

Ipswich v M'Boro - Half Time / Full Time - home+home

K. Hellberg won't be too excited about going up against Ipswich Town in the Championship on Sunday. K. McKenna's side have been winning at halftime and gone on to secure the win at fulltime more often than any other team in the the Championship this term - 15 times in total. That stat suggests it may be a tough lunch time for Middlesbrough, and that backing Ipswich Town in the halftime fulltime market could be a smart move at odds of 3.60.
