Best Championship Footy Tips this weekend

The championship throws up the most random results week after week. It is a hard league to predict but check this article out which highlights good football leagues for betting. You can still find value in any league and hopefully the below tips are winners this weekend.

Blackburn Rovers 15:00 Bristol City

The wheels have fallen off Blackburn’s early season form considering that they lost three consecutive Championship clashes against Reading, Sheffield United and Stoke City. Jon Dahl Tomasson’s side failed to score in any of those clashes and Bristol City might be able to spring a victory at Ewood Park. Nigel Pearson’s side are full of goals and can edge this encounter.

BEST BET: Bristol City

Luton Town 15:00 Wigan Athletic

Luton’s three home matches have all been low-scoring this season, with Nathan Jones’ side having played out a goalless draw against Birmingham, a 1-0 reverse against Preston and a 1-1 draw against Sheffield United. It’s likely to be more of the same when they clash with a Wigan side whose two games on the road have finished low-scoring.

BEST BET: Under 2.5 Goals

    Norwich City 15:00 Coventry City

    Norwich have recovered from a slow start to the 2022-23 season and are now jostling for a top six position, with Dean Smith getting a tune from the Canaries. The East Anglian side have won their past four Championship clashes and there is little reason to desert them against a Coventry side who have struggled to get points on the road.

    BEST BET: Norwich to win

    Preston 15:00 Birmingham City

    Preston’s three matches at Deepdale this season have all finished goalless and this freakish trend must surely come to an end on Saturday. There is plenty to recommend the North End defence who started the campaign with six consecutive clean sheets, while Birmingham are yet to score on the road. Let’s go with the Unders here even if there’s likely to be the odd goal or two.

    BEST BET: Under 2.5 Goals

    Rotherham United 15:00 Watford

    Watford’s three away matches have all ended in a draw this season and the same outcome might happen at the New York Stadium. The Hornets have been defensively tight but struggled to create chances, with Rotherham having enjoyed a strong start in their quest to actually cement a place in the Championship. Two wins and a draw means they look like a tough nut to crack.

    BEST BET: Draw

    Swansea City 15:00 QPR

    Two of the more entertaining teams in the Championship go head to head at the Liberty Stadium. It looks set up for both teams to find the net, with Queens Park Rangers having been involved in three consecutive matches where BTTS Yes has copped. Swansea have endured a slower start to the campaign and Russell Martin’s side will look to play on the front foot in this one.

    BEST BET: BTTS Yes
