EFL Championship predictions

Championship stats and tips

Charlton v Portsmouth - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

Charlton Athletic's recent matches in the Championship have delivered decent entertainment, and a fair amount of goals, but it has been some time since N. Jones's charges provided their supporters with a ding-dong battle with goals galore. There have been no more than 4 goals in all of their last 15 matches.

Hull v QPR - Both Teams To Score & Result - under

If you like putting your money on goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming match between Queens Park Rangers and Hull City might well be the one for you. J. Stéphan's side have lost 11 games this campaign in which both teams have found the net. That's the most in the Championship.

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

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's what's required of Leicester City boss M. Cifuentes Corvillo on Saturday. His side face Stoke City having been beaten in each of their last 4 Championship games.

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

It has been a dismal run of results for West Bromwich Albion and their fans, with their last Championship success now coming 8 games ago. Boss R. Mason simply must find a remedy, and preferably right away. Will Coventry City at The Hawthorns on Saturday come too soon, or be a turning point?

M'Boro v Oxford Utd - Both Teams To Score - yes

When Oxford United and Middlesbrough have met in the Championship, goals have been the order of the day. Both teams have scored in each of their last 7 matches against one another, so the Riverside Stadium crowd could be in for another nail-biter on Saturday afternoon.

Norwich v Birmingham - Double Chance - away win or draw

C. Davies and his Birmingham City team have gained a useful way of claiming something from just about every Championship game they play. They're unbeaten in 7 in the Championship now, so L. Manning and his Norwich City side will have their work cut out if they're going to get anything at Carrow Road on Saturday.

Southampton v Charlton - Double Chance - home win or draw

A satisfyingly long time has passed since Southampton’s merry supporters watched their lads get beaten in the Championship. W. Still’s boys are now unbeaten in 5 outings, and he'll be full of belief that they can keep going against Charlton Athletic at St. Mary's Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Best value odds of 1.14 can be taken advantage of to back Southampton to avoid defeat yet again.

Watford v Derby - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Watford have enjoyed meeting Derby County in the Championship in recent years, with a run of 5 straight wins against them. J. Eustace will be hoping for a change in fortunes, while J. Gracia Carlos will be hoping for more of the same on Saturday afternoon.

Wrexham v Ipswich - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

Common or not, every football fan loves to see a match in which 5 goals or more are scored, but Ipswich Town's dedicated fans have now waited 16 matches to see their side deliver one. A frustrating statistic in anyone's book. Could the streak come to an end on Saturday afternoon, as they face P. Parkinson's Wrexham at Racecourse Ground, Wrexham? With odds of 1.11 on there being under 4.5 goals, the bookmakers clearly have their doubts.

Sheff Utd v Sheff Wed - Win / Draw / Win - home win

It seems we're looking firmly at a home win, or at least that's what our stat-fuelled bettors believe is heading our way, as Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday clash in the Championship on Sunday. In total 6 have backed it already, with top odds of 1.15 available.

Hull v Derby - Double Chance - away win or draw

Hull City have consistently struggled against Derby County in the Championship in recent years. The two clubs have clashed on 6 occasions since 2020, and Derby County have gone unbeaten in them all. Tuesday's game at KCOM Stadium could be a really difficult one for S. Jakirović & co.

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

Leicester City simply have not been able to find a way past Middlesbrough in the league in recent years. The two teams have played on 5 occasions since 2016, and Middlesbrough have been unbeaten in them all. Tuesday's game at Riverside Stadium could be a really difficult one for M. Cifuentes Corvillo & co.

Watford v Ipswich - Double Chance - away win or draw

Watford simply have not been able to find a way past Ipswich Town in the Championship in recent years. The two teams have played on 5 occasions since 2014, and Ipswich Town have been unbeaten in them all. Tuesday's game at Vicarage Road could be another hard one for J. Gracia Carlos & co.

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

Southampton have dominated Queens Park Rangers in the league recently, putting together a run of 5 straight wins against them. J. Stéphan will be doing all he can to turn the tide, while W. Still will be hoping for more of the same on Tuesday night.

Norwich v Sheff Wed - Half Time / Full Time - home+home

Sheffield Wednesday will be looking to avoid adding to the 14 matches they have already lost at both the break and the final whistle this season when they face Norwich City on Wednesday. H. Pedersen's players already top the rest of the Championship in that department, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss L. Manning , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.

Sheff Utd v Coventry - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over

Coventry City have been the Championship's showmen this term, at least in when it comes to producing goal-filled fixtures. No other team can boast more than their record of having been involved in 3 six-goal thrillers this term. Can they make that 4 when they play Sheffield United on Wednesday evening? With odds of 8.00 available, it might be worth backing.

Stoke v Oxford Utd - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring games aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Stoke City have had too many chances to test that theory this term. 20 of their side's matches in the Championship have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will G. Rowett and his Oxford United side be able to inject goalmouth action into this match on Wednesday? Or will it be same old same old?

Leicester v Norwich - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like putting your money on goals and choosing a winner, then the upcoming clash between Leicester City and Norwich City could be worth a look. M. Cifuentes Corvillo's side have lost 10 games this season in which both clubs have got on the scoresheet. That's the most in the Championship.

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

If you like putting your money on goals and choosing a winner, then the upcoming game between Queens Park Rangers and Sheffield United could be worth a look. J. Stéphan's side have lost 11 games this season in which both teams have found the net. That's a record in the Championship.
