Championship stats and tips
Ipswich v Hull - Win / Draw / Win - home win
This season in particular, Ipswich Town's dedicated followers expect high standards from their side and, according to KickOff's bettors, they may just be going home happy on Tuesday evening. 14 of these tipsters are tipping that K. McKenna's side will emerge victorious as S. Jakirović's Hull City visit Portman Road. Will you be backing the same?
Preston v Oxford Utd - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Deepdale is the venue as Preston North End and Oxford United clash on Friday night, in what could well be a tight affair. P. Heckingbottom's side have the highest number of score draws of any side in the competition - 11 in 35 matches. An extension of that record can be backed at 4.75.
Blackburn v Portsmouth - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
The 5+ goal game may be a rare beast, but Portsmouth's hardy supporters have now been waiting 10 matches to see their team serve one up. Certainly they could be forgiven for craving some proper excitement by now. Will the run be broken on Saturday lunch time, as they face V. Ismaël's Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park? With odds of 1.06 on there being 4 goals or fewer being scored, the bookies certainly don’t think so.
Hull v Millwall - Double Chance - home win or draw
Millwall simply have not been able to find a way past Hull City in the Championship in recent years. The two teams have played on 7 occasions since 2022, and Hull City have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at KCOM Stadium could be a tricky one for A. Neil & co.
Bristol C v Coventry - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Saturday afternoon, then the clash between Coventry City and Bristol City could be worth checking out. F. Lampard's team lead the Championship in most matches with over 2.5 goals so far this season. 22 of their Championship games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from G. Struber's men could ruin the spectacle.
Charlton v Birmingham - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring fixtures aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Charlton Athletic have had too many chances to test that theory this season. 22 of their side's games in the Championship have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will C. Davies and his Birmingham City side be able to inject spice into this encounter on Saturday? Or will it be more of the same?
Derby v Sheff Wed - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
Sheffield Wednesday will be hoping not to add to the 17 games they have already been losing at both the break and the final whistle this campaign when they take on Derby County on Saturday. H. Pedersen's side already top the rest of the Championship in that category, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss J. Eustace may not feel the same way, however.
Ipswich v Leicester - Double Chance - away win or draw
Ipswich Town have found something of a bogey team in Leicester City in the league in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 7 occasions since 2013, and Leicester City have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Portman Road could be a really difficult one for K. McKenna & co.
Swansea v Stoke - Both Teams To Score - no
If the form book is to be believed, we can predict at least one set of players to keep a clean sheet at Liberty Stadium on Saturday, as M. Robins and A. Sheehan's teams meet. Stoke City have had the highest number of games where one team or more has failed to score (i.e. BTTS no) in the Championship so far this season - 21 out of 35 played. Both gaffers will just be hoping it isn't their team that draws a blank.
QPR v M'Boro - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like putting your money on goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming match between Queens Park Rangers and Middlesbrough could be worth a look. J. Stéphan's side have lost 11 games this campaign in which both clubs have scored. That's the highest number in the Championship.
Leicester v Bristol C - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at King Power Stadium will be anticipating action at both ends on Tuesday, and with good reason if Leicester City's recent record is to be continued. There have been a goal in both nets in 27 of their 35 Championship fixtures this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.
Millwall v Derby - Double Chance - home win or draw
Derby County simply have not been able to find a way past Millwall in the Championship in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 6 occasions since 2021, and Millwall have remained unbeaten in them all. Tuesday's game at The Den could be a really difficult one for J. Eustace & co.
Sheff Wed v Watford - Double Chance - away win or draw
Sheffield Wednesday have found something of a bogey team in Watford in the Championship in recent years. The two sides have met on 10 occasions since 2014, and Watford have gone unbeaten in them all. Tuesday's game at Hillsborough could be a tricky one for H. Pedersen & co.
Wrexham v Hull - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - over
If you're looking for excitement this Tuesday, you could probably do worse than betting on the game at Racecourse Ground. 8 of Hull City's Championship games this term have wound up with more than 5 goals - the most in the competition. Who would bet against an extension of that record, especially with odds of 5.50 available?
Stoke v Ipswich - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
M. Robins won't be looking forward to facing Ipswich Town in the Championship on Tuesday. K. McKenna's side have been ahead at HT and gone on to claim victory at final whistle in more games than any other side in the the Championship this term - 13 times in total. That record suggests there's every chance of it being a difficult night for Stoke City, and that backing Ipswich Town in the halftime fulltime market could be a strong bet at odds of 3.40.
Birmingham v QPR - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and picking a winner, then the upcoming fixture between Queens Park Rangers and Birmingham City could be the one for you. J. Stéphan's side have lost 11 games this campaign in which both sides have found the net. That's the highest number in the Championship.
M'Boro v Charlton - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring matches aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Charlton Athletic have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this campaign. 22 of their side's fixtures in the Championship have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will R. Edwards and his Middlesbrough team be capable of adding some spice into this fixture on Wednesday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?
Norwich v Sheff Utd - Double Chance - away win or draw
Norwich City simply have not been able to find a way past Sheffield United in the league in recent years. The two teams have played on 10 occasions since 2018, and Sheffield United have been unbeaten in them all. Wednesday's game at Carrow Road could be another hard one for L. Manning & co.
Oxford Utd v Blackburn - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - under
Supporters travelling to The Kassam Stadium this Wednesday to watch Oxford United and Blackburn Rovers might already be fearing a boring evening, and who could blame them? G. Rowett's charges have produced 5 matches with under 0.5 goals this season, the highest number of any team in the Championship. Will anybody find the net? You can bet against it at best odds of 8.50.
West Brom v Southampton - Double Chance - away win or draw
West Bromwich Albion simply have not been able to find a way past Southampton in the Championship in recent years. The two teams have clashed on 5 occasions since 2023, and Southampton have remained unbeaten in them all. Wednesday's game at The Hawthorns could be another hard one for R. Mason & co.
Coventry v Preston - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Wednesday night, then the clash between Coventry City and Preston North End could be worth checking out. F. Lampard's team lead the Championship in most matches with at least 3 goals scored so far this season. 22 of their Championship games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from P. Heckingbottom's men could prevent more of the same.
Leicester v QPR - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like putting your money on goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming game between Queens Park Rangers and Leicester City could warrant a closer look. J. Stéphan's side have lost 11 games this campaign in which both teams have got on the scoresheet. That's a record in the Championship.
