Saturday's Championship predictions including Sheffield United vs. Norwich City

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


Blackpool vs. Preston (Saturday, 12.30pm)

Blackpool and Preston North End meet in the first West Lancashire derby of the season on Saturday afternoon in the Championship.

Twelve places and six points separate the rivals coming into this clash, with Blackpool struggling in their second season back at this level.

We say: Blackpool 0-1 Preston North End


Preston come into this derby match with the best away and defensive records in the Championship, with Blackpool coming off the back of a poor result at home to Hull.

If the Lilywhites can make this a cagey affair, we can see them earning their second narrow away victory in the space of four days.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Blackburn vs. Birmingham (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Blackburn Rovers will be looking to record their third consecutive victory as they entertain a rejuvenated Birmingham City side in the Championship on Saturday afternoon.

A win could take Rovers to the top of the second-tier standings, whereas Birmingham could close the gap to the playoffs to a single point with a win on the road this weekend.

We say: Blackburn Rovers 2-0 Birmingham City


Blackburn look set for an automatic promotion push this season and supporters will be expecting another three points against Birmingham this weekend.

Birmingham are in good form but expended a lot of energy to earn a point off Burnley, and with the short turnaround from Wednesday night to Saturday, Blues might struggle to match a dangerous Rovers team.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Middlesbrough vs. Huddersfield (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Middlesbrough play host to Huddersfield Town on Saturday afternoon looking to record successive wins in the Championship for the first time this season.

Despite the visitors currently sitting at the bottom of the standings, they can move to within two points of their hosts, while still possessing a game in hand, with victory at the Riverside Stadium.

We say: Middlesbrough 2-1 Huddersfield Town


Given their respective ambitions, this feels like a potentially-pivotal game with regards to the remainder of their season. Although the Terriers have the qualities to earn at least a share of the spoils, we can see Boro edging this contest through a late goal.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Millwall vs. West Brom (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Millwall play host to West Bromwich Albion on Saturday afternoon looking to record their fourth successive victory in the Championship.

At a time when the Lions are on an upward trajectory in eighth position in the standings, the visitors will start the game sitting in the relegation zone.

We say: Millwall 3-1 West Bromwich Albion


Although West Brom possess the quality to post a second away win in succession, it is difficult to ignore Millwall's recent run of results. As the only team to have posted maximum points for three matches, we feel that the Lions will extend that streak at the weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Queens Park Rangers will look to strengthen their position at the top of the Championship table on Saturday, when they play host to Wigan Athletic.

The Hoops have climbed to the summit thanks to a strong run of form since the recent international break, while the visitors now sit 17th following back-to-back league defeats.

We say: Queens Park Rangers 3-1 Wigan Athletic


Given the contrasting form of the two sides we can only envisage a relatively dominant home victory at Loftus Road on Saturday.

Even without Willock, Beale's side boast plenty of attacking threat with Chair and Dykes in form, while the Hoops appear to have found a winning formula and should not be knocked off the summit of the division by their faltering visitors.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Reading vs. Bristol City (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Reading head into Saturday's Championship fixture against Bristol City looking to end a three-match losing streak, a run which has led to the home side dropping out of the Championship playoff spots.

Meanwhile, Bristol City, who sit in 12th position in the standings, will move ahead of their hosts with victory at the Select Car Leasing Stadium.

We say: Reading 1-1 Bristol City


Now that Bristol City have ended their previous dismal streak, they have the potential to go on another run of wins. Nevertheless, Reading usually perform better at their home ground, leading us to predict a competitive share of the spoils.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Rotherham vs. Hull City (Saturday, 3.00pm)

In their bid to make it three Championship wins in a row under the new management of Matt Taylor, Rotherham United will welcome Hull City to the New York Stadium on Saturday.

The Millers most recently triumphed away at Stoke City in midweek, while their visitors scored an important victory of their own against Blackpool.

We say: Rotherham United 2-1 Hull City


Rotherham will be full of confidence and rejuvenated under the management of Taylor, and even though Hull may have more star power in their squad, we fancy the Millers to triumph on home turf at the weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Sheff Utd vs. Norwich (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Two sides struggling for form at the top end of the Championship will do battle on Saturday, as Sheffield United welcome Norwich City to Bramall Lane.

The hosts have dropped from the summit of the division following a five-game winless run, while their visitors make the trip on the back of three straight defeats.

We say: Sheffield United 1-1 Norwich City


Saturday is certainly an important game for both sides at Bramall Lane as they fight to end tough runs, but the two teams both look far from their best and we do not see either outclassing the other and taking all three points.

As such, we predict a low-scoring draw, extending their respective waits for three-point hauls.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Stoke vs. Coventry (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Stoke City play host to Coventry City on Saturday afternoon looking to bounce back from their surprise defeat to Rotherham United earlier this week.

At a time when the Potter sit in 16th position in the Championship standings, Coventry have finally moved off the bottom with successive wins.

We say: Stoke City 2-1 Coventry City


With both teams having put together successive wins of late, there should be a similar level of belief within both camps. For us, however, Stoke are more likely to respond to their disappointment in midweek, edging this contest courtesy of a strong first-half showing.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Sunderland vs. Burnley (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Recently-promoted Sunderland host Burnley at the Stadium of Light in the Championship on Saturday afternoon looking to respond after defeat in midweek.

Vincent Kompany's men had a more successful time on their travels in the week, but will be keen to return to winning ways after being held by Birmingham City.

We say: Sunderland 0-1 Burnley


Burnley are only small margins away from running clear of their promotion rivals in the Championship this season.

Tony Mowbray will need a response from his side against a visiting team who are a dozen games unbeaten, and considering the possible injury to Alese this game is unlikely to see any Sunderland success.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.
