Promotion Chasing Wrexham Among Championship Tips On Tuesday
LIGHTS, camera, action! It is show time again for our resilient EFL Championship clubs hurtling into another full midweek programme.
Promotion, Play-Off and relegation issues are all under the spotlight. Accordingly, Championship betting interest is reaching fever pitch.
Here are the upcoming pairings alongside my considered score predictions to assist your football betting…
Millwall v Derby County
- Kick-off: 7.45pm
- Rankings: 3rd versus 7th
Millwall preview – Four points beneath those automatic promotion rungs after six maximum pointers in eight Championship outings which brought merely one defeat.
Saturday’s 3-1 triumph at fellow promotion rivals Hull City was particularly impressive. Millwall haven’t actually graced the top flight of English football since 1990.
Derby County preview – Two straight wins – both at home – see the Rams three points below Play-Off discussions. But they’ve lost their last two away matches.
Score prediction: Thriller 3-3.
Wrexham v Hull City
- Kick-off: 7.45pm
- Rankings: 6th versus 5th
Wrexham preview – Fresh from Saturday’s 4-2 home loss against Premier League big boys Chelsea on Emirates FA Cup Fifth Round duties.
Reverting back to the Championship, Wrexham are four games unbeaten culminating with three victories. Therefore establishing a three point advantage over teams chasing the Play-Offs. In fact, they’ve won nine of the past 13 League fixtures.
Hull City preview – Three points above Tuesday’s hosts despite five defeats within seven League and Cup encounters. On the road, their 1-0 setback at Ipswich Town last time out ended eight unconquered excursions incorporating seven victories.
Score prediction: Nervy 0-0.
Stoke City v Ipswich Town
- Kick-off: 8pm
- Rankings: 15th versus 4th
Stoke City preview – Tumbling downwards because of one win across 10 Championship engagements.
Ipswich Town preview – Four unbeaten League affairs so the Tractor Boys hover five points below automatic promotion contention whilst holding a game in hand on other leading sides.
Some interesting symmetry developing amid their five most recent away results – won, lost, won, lost, won.
Score prediction: Ipswich ideal 3-0.
Rest Of Tuesday’s Championship Score Predictions:
- Leicester City v Bristol City 0-2.
