Championship stats and tips

Tuesday 15th September

Bristol C v Lincoln - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like backing goals and choosing a winner, then the upcoming game between Lincoln City and Bristol City might well be worth a look. 's side have lost 2 games this term in which both clubs have got on the scoresheet. That's the highest number in the Championship.

M'Boro v Millwall - Half Time / Full Time - away+away

K. Hellberg won't be looking forward to going up against Millwall in the Championship on Tuesday. A. Neil's side have been ahead at halftime and gone on to claim victory at final whistle more frequently than any other club in the the Championship this season - 3 times in total. That record suggests it may be a tough evening for Middlesbrough, and that backing Millwall in the HT FT market would be a smart move at odds of 8.50.

Saturday 19th September

Cardiff v Charlton - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring encounters aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Cardiff City have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 4 of their side's encounters in the Championship have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will N. Jones and his Charlton Athletic team be able to inject goals into this fixture on Saturday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?

Millwall v West Ham - Half Time / Full Time - home+home

N. Simões Espírito Santo won't be looking forward to going up against Millwall in the Championship on Saturday. A. Neil's side have led at halftime and gone on to claim victory at FT more frequently than any other team in the the Championship this term - 3 times in total. That stat suggests it could well be a long lunch time for West Ham United, and that backing Millwall in the HT FT market would be a great shout at odds of 6.50.

Stoke v Sheff Utd - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Sheffield United have enjoyed success against Stoke City in the Championship in recent years, with their streak now extending to 5 straight wins against them. M. Robins will be hoping for a change in fortunes, while C. Wilder will be hoping for more of the same on Saturday lunch time.

Birmingham v M'Boro - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Middlesbrough have enjoyed meeting Birmingham City in the Championship recently, with their streak now extending to 7 straight wins against them. C. Davies will be hoping for a change in fortunes, while K. Hellberg will be expecting more of the same on Saturday afternoon.

Burnley v Derby - Double Chance - home win or draw

Derby County simply have not been able to find a way past Burnley in the Championship in recent years. The two clubs have clashed on 14 occasions since 2008, and Burnley have remained unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Turf Moor could be a tricky one for J. Eustace & co.

Portsmouth v Blackburn - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you fancy a thriller on Saturday afternoon, then the clash between Blackburn Rovers and Portsmouth could be worth checking out. T. Mowbray's team lead the Championship in most matches with more than 2 goals scored so far this season. 6 of their Championship games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only a defensive masterclass from J. Mousinho's men could prevent more of the same.

QPR v Preston - Double Chance - home win or draw

Preston North End have consistently struggled against Queens Park Rangers in the Championship in recent years. The two teams have played on 6 occasions since 2023, and Queens Park Rangers have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Loftus Road Stadium could be another hard one for P. Heckingbottom & co.

Wrexham v Southampton - Both Teams To Score & Result - away

Wrexham will be concerned that 1 goal is unlikely to be enough to claim victory over Southampton on Saturday afternoon. 's men have the best record in the Championship when it comes to winning games in which both teams are on the scoresheet (4 of their 7 games), so focusing on defence might be the only viable route for P. Parkinson and his Wrexham charges at Racecourse Ground.

Sunday 20th September

Norwich v Bolton - Both Teams To Score - no

If we trust the form book, we can predict at least one side to earn a clean sheet at Carrow Road on Sunday, as S. Schumacher and P. Clement's sides clash. Bolton Wanderers have had the most games where one team or more has not scored (i.e. BTTS no) in the Championship so far this campaign - 4 out of 7 played. Both managers will just be praying it isn't their them that draws a blank.
