READING V SUNDERLAND, WEDNESDAY 8PM

The Black Cats will be on the road once more as they travel to Reading, and it won't be an easy task against the home side who have won four of their last five matches in the Championship. Sunderland, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back from a 1-0 defeat to Middlesbrough last time out.

However, the home side come into the match only slight favourites, with a Goal Supremacy spread of Reading/Sunderland -0.1 - 0.1. The visitors are available at 9/5 on the fixed odds, with the draw at 11/5 and Reading at 17/10.

The Royals have had the upper hand in the last five meetings too, winning three and drawing one, but all of those matches featured at least three goals, and we have Total Goals at 2.35 - 2.55. A repeat scoreline of their last match - a 2-2 draw - is available at 12/1.

PRESTON V BURNLEY, TUESDAY 8PM 

While Preston have the second-most draws in the Championship - with five already this season - Burnley also saw a stalemate (their fourth of the season) last time out against West Brom end their run of three consecutive wins.

This Lancs derby will see the visitors begin as slight favourites, at 6/4 on the fixed odds and with a Goal Supremacy of 0.05 - 0.25. Preston are at 21/10 to grab three points, while another draw for these sides is at 21/10. The last league meeting at Deepdale saw the Clarets come away with a tight 1-0 win, and that result is available at 6/1

In terms of goal scorers, we have boosted two anytime goalscorer markets: Jay Rodriguez from 17/10 to 19/10, and Troy Parrott from 23/10 to 27/10.

huddersfield V WIGAN, TUESDAY 7.45pm

Huddersfield are in a spot of trouble after a hugely disappointing start to the new season, with the Terriers losing five of their opening seven fixtures, and a win at home will be vital in avoiding being cut adrift at the bottom of the table.

Spreadex do have the home side as very slight pre-match favourites against the low-scoring Latics at -0.1 - 0.1, at 7/4 on the fixed odds with the draw at 11/5 and Wigan at 9/5. Huddersfield have failed to score more than once against Wigan in the last five meetings, and the Huddersfield Goals spread is 1.05 - 1.25.

Danny Ward will likely be the key goal threat for the home side, and his Player Goal Minutes are available at 14 - 17. 

NORWICH V BRISTOL CITY, WEDNESDAY 7.45PM 

After securing their fifth consecutive victory in the Championship, the home side look to have put their slow start well and truly behind them, and sit second in the table - with hopes growing fast that another promotion will be celebrated this season.

Spreadex have the home side as significant pre-match favourites to make it six in a row at 13/20, with Bristol City at 17/4 and the draw 3/1. On the spread betting Goal Supremacy market this translates to Norwich/Bristol City 0.85 – 1.05.

Although the visitors come into this one also in strong form and undefeated in five, they have also never beaten Norwich in the last five meetings between them, only securing one draw in those matches. The last meeting ended in a 2-0 win for the Canaries, and the same result is available at 15/2 here.

WEST BROM V BIRMINGHAM, WEDNESDAY 8PM

The Baggies continued their run of draws with a third consecutive one against Burnley last time out. While avoiding defeats, no win in four will be a concern for Steve Bruce, and he will be hopeful of his side securing all three points here.

Spreadex have the home side as heavy favourites to do that, coming into the match with a Goal Supremacy of West Brom/Birmingham of 1.2 - 1.4, and at 2/5 on the fixed odds. The draw is available at 18/5 and an away win for Birmingham is at 7/1.

This fixture has been a low-scoring affair more often than not in recent times, with three of the last five producing under 1.5 goals. A repeat here is available at 11/4, with Total Goals at 2.65 - 2.85, and Total Goal Minutes at 136 - 146 on the spreads.
