Cardiff v Norwich

CARDIFF WIN

Cardiff are looking a touch ominous at the moment and will see the Canaries off comfortably.

/

Crystal Palace v Swansea

SWANSEA WIN

In-form Swansea should have too much going forward for struggling Palace.

/

Derby v Watford

DERBY WIN

Watford have been the Championship’s shock success story so far but I can’t help feeling they are beginning to slide.

/

Ipswich v Milwall

DRAW

Close contest between evenly matched sides.

/

Leicester v Preston

LEICESTER WIN

Home advantage to tell in this game between fellow strugglers.

/

Middlesborough v Bristol City

DRAW

One would expect the impact of a new manager to give Boro the win but I see them screwing this up.

/

Portsmouth v Notts Forest

DRAW

Very hard one to call between two sides who are looking good, might be the game of the weekend.

Rs to break cycle of draws.

Unfancied Scunny will nick this Yorkshire derby against out-of-sorts Leeds.

/

Sheffield United v Coventry

United are on the slide, Cov are on the up, they’ll cancel each other out at Bramall Lane.

/

Barnsley v Hull

BARNSLEY WIN

Barnsley’s record at Oakwell is as good as anyone’s in the division and it’s hard to see Hull changing that.
