Wednesday's Championship predictions including Norwich vs. Leicester

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Championship fixtures, including Norwich vs. Leicester.


Blackburn vs. Sunderland (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Blackburn Rovers play host to Sunderland on Wednesday evening with both clubs sitting just below the top six in the Championship standings.

Having each prevailed in two of their last three fixtures in the second tier, each team has momentum heading into the contest at Ewood Park.

We say: Blackburn Rovers 2-2 Sunderland


This has all the makings of a thrilling contest, particularly given the recent goalscoring exploits of the visitors. Nevertheless, we fancy Rovers to earn a share of the spoils on home territory to continue their solid recovery from the disappointment of last season.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Huddersfield vs. Stoke (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Huddersfield Town square off against Stoke City on Wednesday evening with each side seemingly going in opposite directions in the Championship.

At a time when the home team have won twice in succession to move up to 17th position in the standings, the visitors have lost three times in a row.

We say: Huddersfield Town 1-1 Stoke City


The fact that Huddersfield are currently rallying after a poor start bodes well going forward, yet this is a Stoke side still full of quality in the final third. In a tight match, we feel that the visitors may do enough to earn a share of the spoils.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Hull City vs. Leeds (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Leeds United will make the short trip to take on Hull City on Wednesday, as both sides aim to continue positive runs in the early stages of the Championship season.

Thanks to a five-game unbeaten run, the hosts sit fifth in the league table after six outings, while the newly-relegated visitors have gone four games of their own without a defeat including two wins from their last three matches.

We say: Hull City 1-2 Leeds United


Hull City will certainly be full of optimism ahead of Wednesday's clash and they possess the tools to cause the newly-relegated Whites problems, but Leeds United are gaining momentum quickly with an abundance of quality in their ranks, and we fancy Farke's men to score another three-point haul in midweek.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Two sides hoping to improve on difficult starts to the Championship season will do battle at The Den on Wednesday, as Millwall entertain Rotherham United.

Both sides suffered defeats on their return to action from the international break at the weekend, leaving them 18th and 21st in the league table respectively after six rounds of games.

We say: Millwall 2-1 Rotherham United


Spirits are certainly not high around The Den after their tough start to the season, but Millwall do still boast plenty of quality, and we fancy them to bounce back at home to a struggling Millers side on home turf on Wednesday.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Watford vs. West Brom (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Watford will be looking to make it back-to-back wins in the Championship for the first time this season when they welcome West Bromwich Albion to Vicarage Road on Wednesday night.

The Hornets left it late to get the better of Birmingham City on the weekend, while West Brom showed little attacking threat in a goalless draw at Ashton Gate against Bristol City.

We say: Watford 2-1 West Bromwich Albion


Watford were good value for their victory over Birmingham on the weekend, and the Vicarage Road faithful will be expecting a similar result against a West Brom side who struggle away from home.

You feel that the Baggies have an extra gear to go up to when the likes of Maja and Sarmiento are eventually integrated into the XI, but we do not envisage Corberan's men earning anything from their trip to Hertfordshire on Wednesday night.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Norwich vs. Leicester (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Norwich City and Leicester City meet in a high-profile showdown in the Championship on Wednesday evening as both sides look to keep the pressure on leaders Preston North End.

The Canaries and Foxes occupy fourth and second position in the standings respectively after collecting nine wins from 12 matches between them in the second tier.

We say: Norwich City 2-3 Leicester City


As two of the best attacking sides in the division, this can surely only be an entertaining encounter. Norwich will back themselves to record the win that would move them ahead of their opponents, yet Leicester's performance at Southampton suggests that their superior class may eventually prevail in the closing stages.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.
