Championship stats and tips

Friday 14th August

Wolves v Blackburn - Double Chance - away win or draw

Following your football club can be a thankless task, and Wolverhampton Wanderers’s dogged old follows know that feeling especially well right now. Their team, led by P. da Silva Peixoto, has not won any of their last 8 Championship matches, and there will be little hope they can end that run against Blackburn Rovers at Molineux Stadium on Friday night. Backing opposition manager T. Mowbray to add to their misery by inspiring his team to a positive result is available at top odds of 2.38.

Saturday 15th August

Bolton v Preston - Double Chance - away win or draw

Bolton Wanderers have consistently struggled against Preston North End in the Championship in recent years. The two clubs have played on 6 occasions since 2015, and Preston North End have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Macron Stadium could be a tricky one for S. Schumacher & co.

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

We all love a game in which more than 4 goals fly in, but Millwall's loyal followers have now been waiting 30 games to watch their side serve one up. That’s too long by anyone’s count. Will that much-needed goal-fest finally come around on Saturday afternoon, as they face M. Skubala's Bristol City at Ashton Gate? With odds of 1.11 on there being under 4.5 goals, the bookies are making their thoughts on the matter perfectly clear.

Charlton v Derby - Both Teams To Score - yes

Charlton Athletic followers have been spoilt with action at each end when their side plays in the Championship, with both sides having scored in every one of their last 7 games. Derby County on Saturday afternoon should be another ding-dong battle.

M'Boro v Lincoln - Half Time / Full Time - away / away

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

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

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's exactly what must be done by Queens Park Rangers boss J. Stéphan on Saturday. His side face Portsmouth having lost each of their last 4 Championship games.

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

Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's what's required of Stoke City boss M. Robins on Saturday. His side face Swansea City having been beaten in each of their last 4 Championship outings.

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

Every now and then we get a golden spell in football, and it has now been a while since since Birmingham City’s happy fans watched their lads get beaten in the Championship. C. Davies’s boys are now unbeaten in 5 outings, and he will be hopeful that they can keep that streak running against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Saturday evening. Best odds of 1.53 can be grabbed to back Birmingham City the double chance market.

Sunday 16th August

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

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's what's required of Watford boss A. Dionisi on Sunday. His side face Southampton having been beaten in each of their last 5 Championship outings.

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

What a miserable run of results for Burnley and their fans, with their last Championship victory now coming 12 matches ago. Boss N. Hayen needs to find a remedy, and preferably right away. Will West Ham United at Turf Moor on Sunday be the one in which they turn it around?

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."
