Championship stats and tips

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

We all dream of our club suddenly becoming invincible, and for some fans that dream comes true. It has been weeks since West Bromwich Albion’s happy fans watched their lads lose in the Championship. E. Ramsay’s squad is now unbeaten in 6 games, and he'll be hopeful that they can keep that streak running against Millwall at The Hawthorns on Friday night. Top odds of 1.36 are available to back West Bromwich Albion the double chance market.

Coventry 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 Coventry City and Sheffield Wednesday clash in the Championship on Saturday. No fewer than 14 have bet on it, with highest odds of 1.15 available.

Norwich v Ipswich - Double Chance - away win or draw

K. McKenna and his Ipswich Town troops have found a useful way of taking something from almost every Championship game they play. They're unbeaten in 8 in the Championship now, so P. Clement and his Norwich City charges will have their work cut out if they're going to get anything at Carrow Road on Saturday.

QPR v Bristol C - Double Chance - home win or draw

Bristol City have found something of a bogey team in Queens Park Rangers in the Championship in recent years. The two clubs have played on 5 occasions since 2023, and Queens Park Rangers have remained unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Loftus Road Stadium could be a really difficult one for R. Hodgson & co.

Charlton v Preston - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Preston North End have enjoyed success against Charlton Athletic in the Championship recently, putting together a run of 5 straight wins against them. N. Jones will be desperate to stop the rot, while P. Heckingbottom will be expecting more of the same on Saturday afternoon.

Leicester v Swansea - Both Teams To Score - yes

When Leicester City and Swansea City have met in the league, goals have generally followed. Both teams have found the net in each of their last 5 clashes, so the King Power Stadium crowd will be expecting another classic on Saturday afternoon.

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

It has been a miserable set of results for Portsmouth and their faithful followers, with their last Championship victory now coming 8 matches ago. Boss J. Mousinho simply must find a solution, and preferably right away. Will Middlesbrough at Riverside Stadium on Saturday come too soon, or be a turning point?

Oxford Utd v Watford - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - under

Supporters travelling to The Kassam Stadium this Saturday to watch Oxford United and Watford might already be fearing a tedious afternoon, and with good reason. M. Bloomfield's players have produced 5 nil-nils this term, the highest number of any team in the Championship. Will anyone find the net? Bet against it at best odds of 9.00.

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

What a dismal run of results for Sheffield United and their faithful followers, with their last Championship success now coming 6 games ago. Boss C. Wilder simply must find a solution, and quickly. Will Hull City at Bramall Lane on Saturday be the one in which they turn it around?

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

As we all know, Southampton's adoring supporters have come to expect a lot from their club and, according to KickOff's tipsters, they may not be disappointed on Saturday afternoon. 7 of these tipsters are predicting that W. Still's team will emerge victorious as J. Eustace's Derby County visit St. Mary's Stadium. Will that prove to be a smart call? We'll find out at FT.

Stoke v Blackburn - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - under

There are some football fans that love the chess match that is a low-scoring game, and they should probably keep an eye on Stoke City v Blackburn Rovers. Each of Blackburn Rovers's last 3 Championship outings has had under 1.5 goals, and that form could run and run.

Birmingham v Wrexham - Win / Draw / Win - away win

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's the task facing Birmingham City boss C. Davies on Sunday. His side face Wrexham having been beaten in each of their last 3 Championship outings.

Portsmouth v Ipswich - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

It should be goals, goals, goals when Portsmouth and Ipswich Town go head-to-head on Tuesday night in the Championship. J. Mousinho and K. McKenna's sides are capable of delivering at the top of the park, and our hive of bettors fancy them to demonstrate that at Fratton Park. 5 of them have saved a bet the fixture to deliver 3 goals or more before full time. 2.20 is the top price among the UK's top bookmakers for that suggestion, and the fans in the ground will enjoy their afternoon as much as the tipsters if it comes in.

Portsmouth v Leicester - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like tipping goals and choosing a winner, then the upcoming clash between Leicester City and Portsmouth could be worth a look. G. Rowett's side have lost 11 games this season in which both teams have got on the scoresheet. That's a record in the Championship.

Leicester v Hull - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like putting your money on goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming game between Leicester City and Hull City could be worth a look. G. Rowett's side have lost 11 games this campaign in which both clubs have found the net. That's the highest number in the Championship.
