Blackburn Rovers square off against Hull City on Boxing Day knowing that they will move joint-top of the Championship standings with victory on Humberside.

Meanwhile, Hull, who have a number of coronavirus cases within their ranks, head into the fixture sitting four points above the relegation zone.

We say: Hull City 0-2 Blackburn Rovers

While Hull have been in good form of late, we cannot ignore the uncertainty surrounding coronavirus cases. With that in mind, Rovers are justifiably the clear favourites and should have enough to claim a relatively comfortable win.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Reading vs. Luton (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Reading welcome Luton Town to the Madejski Stadium on Wednesday evening knowing that they need to end a five-match winless streak in the Championship as soon as possible.

While the Royals sit just three points clear of the relegation zone, Luton are in 13th position and with several games in hand on the teams above them.

We say: Reading 1-2 Luton Town

Even though they experienced contrasting fortunes at the weekend, both teams will feel encouraged by their respective performances. Nevertheless, we can only back the Hatters for this contest, the visitors potentially prevailing by the odd goal in three.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.
