2023/24 Championship Betting Preview Week 34

The Sky Sports cameras will be at the MKM Stadium for the Saturday lunchtime kick-off as West Brom travel to Hull in what should prove  another tough test of both sides' promotion credentials. We preview that and the rest of our Spreadex partner clubs' fixtures for this weekend below.

We have a wide range of in-play options as well as our bet builder feature and an extensive list of football spread betting markets, as well as our Acca Boost feature.

HULL v west brom, SATURDAY 12.30PM

In a battle between the fifth and sixth-placed sides in the league, this match could prove crucial in the race for a promotion place with seemingly only two places realistically up for grabs. With the top four at least twelve points ahead, the battle for fifth and sixth in the final order may well come down to meetings like this one. 

Both sides come into this one in fairly well-matched form having lost just one of their last five matches, but Hull will be riding a crest of a wave after defeating Southampton on the road in their last match, while the Baggies fell to a 2-0 defeat against the Saints last Friday at the Hawthorns.

However, West Brom have dominated this match-up in the most recent meetings, having won four of the last five. Ahead of this one, Hull are available at 29/20, with the draw at 21/10 and West Brom at 2/1.

blackburn v NORWICH, SATURDAY 3PM

In one of the two Spreadex Derbies this weekend, Blackburn will be hosting Norwich and will be hoping to have put their major struggles in this season behind them. Having moved to a five-point cushion from the drop zone, the Rovers will be aiming for a string of positive results which could yet push them into a comfortable mid-table or even unlikely top-half finish.

For the Canaries, meanwhile, aims of potential promotion are still alive and they currently sit three points behind Hull in the final play-off position. If they grab a win here and Hull fall to defeat, there is the potential of Norwich ending the weekend in the play-off positions, although Coventry sit just above them in the standings due to a better goal difference.

The match odds have Blackburn as favourites on the Supremacy with a spread of 0 - 0.2, with fixed odds prices of 29/20 on Blackburn and Norwich at 17/10. The draw is available at 5/2.

cardiff city v STOKE, SATURDAY 3PM

Cardiff host Stoke in the Welsh capital here and they will be desperate to put an end to their poor run of form recently after just two wins in their last ten matches. However, the visitors here are in a period of struggles of their own, so the home side will be looking to make home advantage count and secure all three points.

Cardiff are 7/4 to snatch all three points this weekend whilst the draw is at 2/1. Stoke are available at 17/10. For football spread betting punters, the 1^st Match Goal minute spread is 39 - 42 whilst you can buy or sell Cardiff/Stoke on the Supremacy at -0.1 - 0.1.

WATFORD v huddersfield, SATURDAY 3PM

In the second Spreadex Derby of the weekend, Watford will be hosting Huddersfield in a match with significance for both sides. Watford currently sit ten points outside of the play-off places and will know their chances of promotion this season may well be terminal with every lost point. The Terriers, meanwhile, are still in relegation danger and are only two points from the drop zone. As such, a win may prove crucial for both sides' ambitions. 

The form book has been a mixed bag for these sides as Watford ended a four-match losing streak last time out with a vital victory, while Huddersfield have had yo-yo results of late, with two wins, losses and draws apiece in their previous six matches.

Watford are available here for the home win at 10/11, with the draw at 12/5 and Huddersfield at 3/1. Total Goal Minutes are available at 127 - 137.

SUNDERLAND v SWANSEA, SATURDAY 3PM

And finally, we look at Principal Partner Sunderland's match as the Black Cats will be in action at the Stadium of Light to host Swansea. Currently managerless, the home side still have time to make a final push for the play-offs if they address their form, and getting wins at home will be crucial to that aim. They will likely be comforted by the fact that the visiting Swans are in terrible form and have lost six of their last seven matches.

Sunderland are available here for the win at 3/4, with the draw at 13/5 and Swansea to win at 17/5. Total Goal Minutes are available at 135 - 145. 1st Match Goal is at 34 - 37.
