2023/24 Championship Betting Preview Week 14

All but one of our partner clubs have Saturday afternoon fixtures with the pick of the bunch coming from the Stadium of Light where Sunderland host Norwich in a Spreadex derby.

If you are having a bet on the Championship this weekend, we have plenty of bet boosts for you to enjoy alongside our Acca Boost promotion and our market-leading Bet Builder tool!

LEEDS V HUDDERSFIELD, SATURDAY 12.30PM

Huddersfield travel to Leeds for a West Yorkshire derby in the early kick-off on Saturday and will be rank outsiders to grab any sort of positive result, although they may be heartened by the fact Leeds lost in midweek. With that being said, the Terriers have only won one of their last five matches so will need to improve massively here.

The home side currently sit third while the visitors sit just outside the relegation places, and the odds have Leeds as 1/3 favourites to get the win whilst a draw can be backed at 17/4 and Huddersfield at 15/2.

The last two meetings have seen Leeds win 2-0. The same result can be backed at 6/1 here.

BLACKBURN V SWANSEA, SATURDAY 3PM

Following a run of five league defeats in six (W1), Blackburn have responded with three successive victories to push back up the Championship table and get themselves within touching distance of the play-offs. Swansea, meanwhile, have lost back-to-back matches after a run of four straight wins before that.

Rovers have been strong in their recent meetings with the Swans and won both of the most recent meetings without conceding. Ahead of this one, the home side can be backed at Evens for the victory whilst the draw is 29/10 and Swansea at 5/2.

The last meeting saw a 1-0 win for Blackburn with the first and only goal being scored in the 89th minute - our 1st Match Goal spread for this one is 32 - 35. Would you buy or sell?

CARDIFF V BRISTOL CITY, SATURDAY 3PM

Bristol City will travel the short distance to the Welsh capital to take on Cardiff City here and the hosts will surely be full of confidence after a morale-boosting 4-0 win over Huddersfield in midweek, which was their first win in four games.

The visitors have had yoyoing form of late with wins often followed by defeats, but despite being six places behind Cardiff in the table, have just two fewer points. Our Championship betting odds have Cardiff at 5/4, the draw can be backed at 12/5 and an away win is also 12/5.

On the Supremacy, this translates to 0.2 - 0.4 in Cardiff's favour, while Total Goals has a spread of 2.3-2.5 and Total Goal Minutes at 118 - 128.

SUNDERLAND V NORWICH, SATURDAY 3PM

Our big Spreadex Derby of the weekend sees Sunderland take on Norwich in a high-stakes match at the Stadium of Light, and the pressure is massively on Tony Mowbray's side here. Sunderland could record their joint-longest losing streak in league football since early 2017/18 if defeated on Saturday. Meanwhile, the Canaries are in similar struggles having lost three of their last four.

We have a couple of betting boosts for this match as we do for every Sunderland match this season and you can back September’s Championship Player of the Month Jack Clarke to score anytime at 7/4 from 2/1. We have also boosted the hosts to win with BTTS - now 29/10!

Sunderland start at 11/10, with the draw at 11/4 and Norwich at 27/10. In our football spread betting markets you can buy or sell Bookings at 50 - 54 while Corners are set at 10.2 - 10.7.

WATFORD V MILLWALL, SATURDAY 3PM

The final Saturday match of our Championship betting preview sees Watford host Millwall at Vicarage Road, and The Hornets must be buzzing after a recent resurgence, doubling their win tally with a pair of narrow 1-0 victories over Sheffield Wednesday and Swansea in their last two outings.

The winning goal in those games interestingly both came in the 82nd minute - 1st Watford Goal in this one has a starting spread of 51 - 54. Home is also where the Hornets have netted 12 of their 17 goals this campaign, which might help ease their fans’ worries considering they’ve failed to score in four of their last five matches against Millwall.

The fixed odds have Watford at 11/10, with Millwall at 14/5 and the draw at 23/10.

COVENTRY V WEST BROM, MONDAY 8PM

The final match of this match week for our partner clubs sees West Brom travel to Coventry in the Monday night fixture ahead of Halloween. The Baggies come into this one with real momentum on the back of five clean sheets from their last six matches (W3, D2, L1). That run culminated in a routine 2-0 win over QPR.

Coventry, meanwhile, will come into this one off the back of two defeats without scoring a goal. The odds have the home side as favourites though with a price of 5/4, while West Brom are at 9/4 and the draw at 23/10.

Total Goals are at 2.4 - 2.6, with Total Goal Minutes at 123 - 133. The last meeting saw 14 corners, while the Corners spread here is 10.5 - 11.
