EFL Championship predictions

Championship stats and tips

Norwich v Coventry - Double Chance - home win or draw

Coventry City have found something of a bogey team in Norwich City in the Championship in recent years. The two sides have played on 11 occasions since 2010, and Norwich City have gone unbeaten in them all. Monday's game at Carrow Road could be a really difficult one for F. Lampard & co.

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

Low scoring encounters aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Bristol City have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 17 of their side's encounters in the Championship have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will J. Eustace and his Derby County team be capable of adding some goals into this match on Friday? Or will it be more of the same?

Leicester v Charlton - Both Teams To Score - yes

Fans at King Power Stadium may be anticipating plenty goalmouth action on Saturday, and rightly so if Leicester City's past record is to be continued. Both teams have scored in 23 of their 29 Championship matches this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.

Sheff Wed v Wrexham - Win / Draw / Win - away win

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's what's required of Sheffield Wednesday boss H. Pedersen on Saturday. His side face Wrexham having been beaten in each of their last 5 Championship matches.

Stoke v Southampton - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw

It might not be an honour they're all that proud of, but Southampton currently lead all opposition in the Championship when it comes to fixtures drawn at both halftime and fulltime this campaign, with their tally now at 7 in 29 games. They will put that unwanted consistency on the line against Stoke City at bet365 Stadium on Saturday, in a game that could see yet another tie.

Blackburn v Hull - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Saturday afternoon, then the clash between Hull City and Blackburn Rovers could be worth checking out. S. Jakirović's team lead the Championship in most matches with more than 2 goals scored so far this season. 19 of their Championship games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from V. Ismaël's men could ruin the spectacle.

M'Boro v Norwich - Double Chance - home win or draw

Norwich City have found something of a bogey team in Middlesbrough in the Championship in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 8 occasions since 2021, and Middlesbrough have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Riverside Stadium could be a tricky one for L. Manning & co.

Portsmouth v West Brom - Double Chance - home win or draw

What a miserable set of results for West Bromwich Albion and their faithful followers, with their last Championship win now coming 5 games ago. Boss R. Mason has to find a remedy, and preferably right away. Will Portsmouth at Fratton Park on Saturday provide some relief?

QPR v Coventry - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like backing goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming clash between Queens Park Rangers and Coventry City could be the one for you. J. Stéphan's side have lost 10 games this term in which both sides have scored. That's the most in the Championship.

Watford v Swansea - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Watford and Swansea City have laboured through a number of tight clashes in recent years. With each of their last 5 Championship meetings ending with under 2.5 goals, the forwards picked by J. Gracia Carlos and A. Sheehan may be in for a long day afternoon.

Blackburn v Sheff Wed - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
