Championship stats and tips

Sunday 26th April

Coventry v Wrexham - Double Chance - home win or draw

Luckily for them, it has been quite some time since Coventry City’s happy supporters watched their team lose in the Championship. F. Lampard’s boys are now unbeaten in 6 outings, and he'll be expecting that they can keep going against Wrexham at The Coventry Building Society Arena on Sunday lunch time. Best odds of 1.36 are available to back Coventry City to either win or draw.

Tuesday 28th April

Southampton v Ipswich - Double Chance - home win or draw

Happy days! It has now been a long while since Southampton’s happy followers watched their side suffer defeat in the Championship. W. Still’s squad is now unbeaten in 17 outings, and he'll be telling them that they can extend that run against Ipswich Town at St. Mary's Stadium on Tuesday evening. Best odds of 1.36 can be taken advantage of to back Southampton to get the win or the draw.

Saturday 2nd May

Blackburn v Leicester - Both Teams To Score - yes

Fans at Ewood Park may be banking on action at both ends on Saturday, and rightly so if Leicester City's recent record is anything to go by. Both teams have scored in 33 of their 45 Championship fixtures this season, more than any side in the competition.

Bristol C v Stoke - Both Teams To Score - no

If we trust the form book, we can expect at least one goalkeeper to earn a clean sheet at Ashton Gate on Saturday, as M. Robins and R. Hodgson's sides clash. Stoke City have had the highest number of matches where one team or more has not scored (i.e. BTTS no) in the Championship so far this campaign - 25 out of 45 played. Both bosses will just be praying it isn't their side that flounders in front of goal.

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

If you like tipping goals and picking a winner, then the upcoming match between Derby County and Sheffield United might well be the one for you. J. Eustace's side have lost 12 games this term in which both sides have scored. That's a record in the Championship.

Hull v Norwich - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Saturday lunch time, then the clash between Hull City and Norwich City could be the one for you. S. Jakirović's team lead the Championship in most matches with at least 3 goals scored so far this season. 28 of their Championship games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only a parking of the bus from P. Clement's men could keep the score down.

Sheff Wed v West Brom - Half Time / Full Time - away+away

Sheffield Wednesday will be hoping not to add to the 21 games they have already lost at both HT and FT this season when they square off against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday. H. Pedersen's team already lead the rest of the Championship in that department, and won't want to make the situation any worse. Opposing boss E. Ramsay may not feel the same way, however.

Swansea v Charlton - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring fixtures aren't always boring, but fans of Charlton Athletic have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this campaign. 28 of their side's encounters in the Championship have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Vitor Matos and his Swansea City side be able to inject spice into this fixture on Saturday? Or will it be same old same old?

How to Choose Your Championship Football Bet

Betting on Sky Bet Championship fixtures demands more homework and patience than any other league. This is due to a number of reasons.

The Championship is made up of 24 teams which vary greatly in quality. Three teams each year will be relegated from the Premier League with parachute payments which can amount to more than £70m. This compares to other teams in the league which have total turnovers equating to less than £5m. The Championship is one of the toughest leagues in the world with a high number of fixtures and the biggest prize in football; promotion to the Premier League.

Use our latest Championship predictions, tips and odds to give yourself the best chance of placing a successful bet. If you'd like to add selections to your bet slip from competitions beyond this league, you can do so by heading to our Acca Smacker and continuing to build your accumulator there."
