Championship Predictions Today – Tuesday 4th November 2025

A PLETHORA of fascinating stories dominate the build up to another full midweek round of EFL Championship combat.

The two leading protagonists both lost over the weekend thereby directly affecting Championship betting odds. Meanwhile, a high profile managerial sacking has unfolded and some other hapless bosses are coming under increasing scrutiny.

Here are the upcoming pairings I am anticipating most alongside considered score predictions to guide your football betting…

Birmingham City v Millwall Prediction

• Kick-off: 7.45pm
• Rankings: 11th versus 4th

Birmingham City preview – Two victories in three games. Home fortunes are encouraging bringing three EFL wins, two draws and one defeat throughout 2025/26. Saturday’s emphatic 4-0 triumph against visitors Portsmouth featured four goals scored via set pieces.

Millwall preview – Five unconquered although their four match winning spree ended courtesy of Saturday’s 2-2 draw at Oxford United. Even so, just one defeat amid nine EFL games. Significantly, the Lions are unbeaten away to date registering three wins and three draws.

Score prediction: Energetic 3-3.

Leicester City v Middlesbrough Prediction

• Kick-off: 7.45pm
• Rankings: 14th versus 2nd

Leicester City preview – Many fans are loudly calling for manager Marti Cifuentes to be replaced after three straight defeats capping a four match winless sequence.

Furthermore, one victory in nine ongoing EFL games collecting eight points out of a possible 27. Two home wins during six attempts in 2025/26 must be improved upon if the Foxes are to make an upwardly mobile impression.

Middlesbrough preview – Fresh from Saturday’s surprise 3-0 capitulation at Watford – only a second defeat of the season. But still holding a one point cushion is 2nd spot.

Boro boss Rob Edwards confirmed on Monday he’s fully focused on the job in hand despite reported links with the newly vacant post at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Score prediction: Boro edge it 3-2.

Oxford United v Stoke City Prediction

• Kick-off: 7.45pm
• Rankings: 18th versus 3rd

Oxford United preview – Two wins and a draw among four games moving Oxford four points above relegation matters. A solitary home EFL conquest thus far though.

Stoke City preview – A point shy of the automatic promotion rungs reflecting three wins in four fixtures and one defeat across seven matches.

They parade our Championship’s tightest defence being breached nine times. The weekend’s 5-1 home romp past fellow Play-Off area inhabitants Bristol City was particularly impressive.

Score prediction: Dismal 0-0.

Coventry City v Sheffield United Prediction

• Kick-off: 8pm
• Rankings: 1st versus 22nd

Coventry City preview – Cov were beaten for the first time in 13 EFL games this season on Friday night going down 3-2 at Wrexham. That terminated the entire Football League’s final undefeated performance in Sky Blues’ best ever start to a campaign.

Nevertheless, Coventry stay three points clear in pole position. Overall, Frank Lampard’s men are divisional foremost scorers racking up 36 goals. No other side have notched more than 22. In addition, Brandon Thomas-Asante is Championship top marksman delivering nine strikes.

Sheffield United preview – Presently suffering two successive losses. In fact, three points beneath the dreaded dotted relegation line following five reverses in eight outings since Chris Wilder returned as boss on 15th September.
