Championship GW18 Predictions and Tips

The Sky Bet Championship resumes this weekend, with Bournemouth and Fulham setting a searing pace at the top of the table. Meanwhile, Derby and Reading have been subject to points deductions at the other end of the division. We look ahead to some of the games this weekend and make predictions based on the latest stats.

SATURDAY 20TH NOVEMBER

Bristol City 15:00 Blackburn Rovers

The Both Teams to Score pick seems the obvious play at Ashton Gate.  With Bristol City having found the net in four of their last five home matches. They go up against a Blackburn side who are seventh in the table.  And they have pilfered twenty-eight goals in their matches to date, so we’re expecting the net to bulge at both ends.

Fulham 15:00 Barnsley

There could be something of a mismatch at Craven Cottage.  With Fulham having scored an amazing forty-four goals already this season. Marco Silva’s side should be able to put Barnsley to the sword.  With the Tykes having amassed just eleven points from seventeen games played.

Championship Quick Betting Tip IconBEST BET: Fulham -1

Huddersfield Town 15:00 West Bromwich Albion

West Brom are finding it hard to keep pace with Fulham FC and Bournemouth right now.  With the Baggies heading to Yorkshire and looking uncertain favourites to win. Valerien Ismael’s side have only won three of their eight games on the road.  With Huddersfield having won five of their eight home games and we’re betting on the spoils to be shared.

Middlesbrough 15:00 Millwall

Chris Wilder has finally returned to football management after a relatively long hiatus. The new Middlesbrough manager might get an immediate tune out of the team when they clash with a Millwall side who have only won twice on the road this term. We think there will be a new manager bounce here.

Reading 15:00 Nottingham Forest

Reading were hit by a setback over the international break, with the Royals having been hit with a six-point deduction. It means that the Berkshire side are now looking over their shoulders and we think Nottingham Forest can capitalise. The Tricky Trees have been rejuvenated under Steve Cooper and they have already clocked up four away wins.

Stoke City 15:00 Peterborough United

Stoke are genuine play-off contenders under Michael O’Neill this season.  And the Potters look like accumulator bankers to overcome Peterborough on Saturday. Stoke have won five of their eight clashes at the bet365 Stadium and they meet a Posh side who have lost seven of their eight encounters on the road this term. Take a look at some of the WhatAcca.com teams Best Accumulator bets for the season ahead.

Swansea City 15:00 Blackpool

Swansea are on the rise under Russell Martin although they showed a defensive Achilles heel when losing 4-0 at Bournemouth. The Swans might bounce back against Blackpool although we’re anticipating an open game of football.  Which might see both sides find the net. Neil Critchley’s Tangerines side look capable of making this a competitive clash.

There are lots of Championship teams who will be targeting a top six spot in the division this season and book themselves a play-off spot. It will be interesting to see which teams are able to piece together strong form at this crucial point of the football season.
