Championship Betting Preview & Tips – Saturday 4 February

The Championship could yield a few low-scoring clashes this weekend. With a couple of intriguing lunchtime encounters featuring the leading two teams in the division. Can David Wagner arrange another big-scoring win over a Burnley team who have been setting the benchmark this season?

Norwich City 12:30 Burnley

Norwich City have enjoyed a new lease of life under David Wagner. With the Canaries enjoying a 4-0 at Preston before a 4-2 victory at Coventry. That ended a five-match winless run although they have a stiff test against a Burnley side who are seventeen points clear of third-placed Middlesbrough. Expect lots of goals when these two teams meet. Learn more about using a William Hill accumulator today with the Tipsters at WhatAcca.com!

BEST BET: Over 2.5 Goals

Rotherham United 12:30 Sheffield United

Rotherham are just about keeping their heads above water ahead of this South Yorkshire derby. And they will look to achieve a positive result against a Blades side who were held to a high-scoring FA Cup draw against Wrexham. Sheffield United have only conceded eleven goals in their fourteen away games, with a low-scoring clash likely to ensure in this lunchtime encounter.

BEST BET: Under 2.5 Goals

Hull City 15:00 Cardiff City

Sabri Lamouchi has taken charge at Cardiff City and will hope to steer the Bluebirds away from the relegation zone. The Welsh side are without a win in their past twelve encounters. They are in grave danger of losing their fight against relegation. The first port of call is to tidy up the defence against a Hull side who come into this game after beating QPR 3-0.

BEST BET: Under 2.5 Goals

Luton Town 15:00 Stoke City

Luton Town sit fourth in the Championship table and it’s entirely possible that the Hatters will be swapping places with Southampton next season. That is where former manager Nathan Jones is now working, although Rob Edwards has done really well since switching from Watford. We can see this being a tight affair against a Stoke side who are festering near the foot of the table. Our accumulator tips and predictions section is updated throughout the day, so why not take a look for this weekend.

BEST BET: BTTS No ( Learn about whats BTTS in betting with our betting guide)

Middlesbrough 15:00 Blackpool

Mick McCarthy has been lured back into football management. Perhaps his Tangerines side can claim a precious point at the Riverside Stadium. The Lancashire outfit have avoided defeat in eight of their fourteen away clashes. With Middlesbrough only boasting a 50% win rate at the Riverside. Perhaps the organised visitors can build on a promising performance away to St Mary’s in the FA Cup. Why not take a look at this years Royal Ascot odds or perhaps read our latest Bookmaker reviews for 2023.

BEST BET: Draw

Reading 15:00 Watford

Reading were able to beat Watford in a recent FA Cup clash and they tend to be solid at home. With eight wins and two draws from thirteen clashes at the Mad Stad. The Royals have been Jekyll and Hyde home and away. With the Hornets having won just five of their fifteen clashes on the road. Therefore, we’ll stick with the Royals on the Draw No Bet market. The latest snooker betting tips are available in our dedicated alternative sports betting guide section.

BEST BET: Reading Draw No Bet
