EFL CHAMPIONSHIP BETTING TIPS AND PREDICTIONS 20TH-21ST JANUARY

EFL CHAMPIONSHIP BETTING PREVIEW 

We have 12 midweek Championship fixtures, and Championship tipster Louie Truman has his Championship best bets and predictions along with Championship betting odds.

CHARLTON vs DERBY

The Addicks managed promotion from League One last season via the play-offs, and they had a positive start to the current campaign. However, they’re currently just four places above the relegation zone. Nathan Jones’ side will be looking to build on their 1-0 home win against Sheffield United last time out. Derby are 12th in the table. The Rams have shown quality throughout this season, but they’ve struggled with consistency.

Betting Tip: Charlton Win – 9/5 – BetMGM

COVENTRY vs MILLWALL

Frank Lampard will be pleased with how his team responded after going 1-0 down against Leicester; the Sky Blues managed to win 2-1; Ellis Simms and Haji Wright were the goal scorers. Millwall have surprised many this season. They’re currently fourth in the table and come into this fixture on the back of two wins against Swansea and Watford.

Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score – 8/11 – Spreadex

IPSWICH vs BRISTOL

The Tractor Boys are third in the table, just two points away from an automatic promotion place. Ipswich come into this fixture on the back of three impressive league wins against league leaders Coventry, Oxford, and Blackburn. Bristol City will push to get back in the play-off places. They kept a clean sheet last time out in a 0-0 draw away at Oxford.

Betting Tip: Ipswich Win – 8/13 – Priced Up

OXFORD vs QPR

Oxford are second from the bottom, they’ve managed just four points from their last five and come into this fixture on the back of a clean sheet against Bristol. QPR are sitting in 11th and just four points away from a play-off place.

Betting Tip: Under 2.5 Goals – 5/7 – QuickBet

PRESTON vs HULL

After narrowly avoiding relegation last season, Preston have surprised many this season; they’re just inside the play-off places in sixth. Paul Heckingbottom will be disappointed with his team’s recent 1-0 home loss against Derby County. Hull are one place above Preston in the table, the Tigers are 5th and come into this fixture on the back of a 2-1 away loss against Southampton; Kyle Joseph and Charlie Hughes were the goal scorers.

Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score – 4/5 – Betway

SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY vs BIRMINGHAM

Sheffield Wednesday have endured financial turmoil this season, which has affected their performances on the pitch. The Owls sit 35 points from safety following a points deduction. Wednesday has been unable to find the back of the net in their last five games in all competitions; during this time, Henrik Pedersen’s side has conceded nine goals. Birmingham has struggled on the road this season, losing four of their last five away games.

Betting Tip: Both Teams Not To Score – 3/4 – BetMGM

SWANSEA vs BLACKBURN

After consecutive losses in the league and cup, Swansea will be looking to end their winless streak when they host Blackburn. With six wins from their previous eight home games against the Lancashire club, Matos will be looking to maintain that run. Blackburn is two places above the relegation zone, and they’ll be aiming to build on recent draws against Middlesbrough, Sheffield Wednesday and Charlton.

Betting Tip: Swansea Win – 23/20 – Spreadex

WEST BROM vs NORWICH

Currently 19th in the Championship, West Brom sit on 31 points from 27 outings, four points above the relegation zone. Confidence has been hard to come by, with just a single win in their last five. Norwich City are struggling near the bottom of the table, sitting 22nd with 27 points from 27 games — just one point away from safety. Despite their position, recent results suggest an upturn in form, including a 2-1 win at Wrexham and a 5-1 FA Cup triumph over Walsall.

Betting Tip: Norwich Win/Draw – 39/50 – QuickBet

WREXHAM vs LEICESTER

After promotion from League One last season, Wrexham has started the current campaign positively; they're currently 10th in the table, just three points away from the play-offs. The foxes will lack confidence coming into this fixture due to their 2-0 away loss at Coventry after going 1-0 up.

Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score – 8/11 - Priced Up

SOUTHAMPTON vs SHEFFIELD UNITED

Southampton are 15th in the table and winless in their last five league games. Despite Southampton struggling in recent fixtures, Tonda Eckert had a good start with the Saints, managing seven wins, three draws, and five losses in his 15 games in charge. Sheffield United has won three of their last five under Chris Wilder. The Blades will be looking to secure important points to move further away from the relegation zone.

Betting Tip: Sheffield United Win/Draw – 4/7 – Spreadex

WATFORD vs PORTSMOUTH

Watford have had a great start to the current season; currently sitting in 8th, the Hornets lost 2-0 against Millwall last time out, but they won four league games on the bounce prior to this result. Portsmouth are just one place above the relegation zone in 21st. They come into this fixture on the back of a 1-0 away win against Sheffield Wednesday; Adrian Segecic was the goal scorer.

Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score – 19/20 – BetMGM

STOKE vs MIDDLESBROUGH

Stoke have won three of their last four and sit just one place outside the play-off places in 7th. They’ll be looking to secure an important three points. Middlesbrough are second in the table. Boro have done well to bounce back from a difficult run with back-to-back wins against Southampton and West Brom.
