While neither side has impressed this season, Norwich look well-positioned to secure a win, especially given their strong home advantage. The Canaries have been a markedly better team at Carrow Road, boasting a +12 goal difference and losing only 2 of their 11 home games.

They’ve averaged an impressive 1.73 points per home fixture. In stark contrast, their away form sees them earning just 0.83 points per game and a -8 goal difference.

QPR, currently sitting 17th in the league, have struggled even more, particularly on their travels. With only 2 wins from 11 away games and an average of just 1 goal per game, they lack the firepower to consistently challenge opponents. Norwich’s superior home form and QPR’s struggles away make the hosts the clear favourites in this matchup.

This game has all the hallmarks of a low-scoring affair. Preston’s matches this season have averaged 2.26 goals, while Sheffield Wednesday’s games see a marginally higher average of 2.78. Neither team has been prolific in front of goal or particularly vulnerable defensively, reinforcing the likelihood of a tight contest.

Preston’s home games are particularly low-scoring, with the hosts averaging just 1 goal scored and 0.83 conceded per game. These figures suggest a cautious approach and limited chances for either side. Sheffield Wednesday’s attacking output has also been inconsistent, further solidifying the case for fewer than three goals in this fixture.

Sheffield United have been a dominant force in the Championship this season, sitting at the top of the table thanks to a combination of exceptional defensive organization and consistent attacking output.

They’ve conceded just 0.57 goals per game on average, underscoring their incredible defensive discipline. This solid foundation has been key to their success, particularly at home, where they’ve won an impressive 9 of their 11 games so far.

West Brom, on the other hand, have had an inconsistent campaign, particularly when playing away from home. They’ve lost 2 of their last 3 matches and have managed just 4 wins in 12 away games this season. Scoring has also been a challenge for them, with an average of only 1.17 goals per game, which is unlikely to trouble Sheffield United’s sturdy backline.

Considering Sheffield’s home record and defensive form, coupled with West Brom’s away struggles and mediocre attack, the odds strongly favour a home win here.

This match promises goals, with both Charlton and Wycombe showing a strong propensity for finding the net this season. Wycombe have been the standout attacking team in the league, boasting 46 goals scored, a figure that makes them the highest scorers by a considerable margin. Their offensive firepower is evident in nearly every game they play.

Charlton, while not as prolific, still average 1.2 goals per game, which is a respectable figure. Importantly, they have the tools to take advantage of Wycombe’s defensive vulnerability, as Wycombe concede at a rate of over 1 goal per game. Wycombe have seen BTTS land in 3 of their last 4 away matches, while Charlton head into the match after a 2-1 win on Boxing Day.

This game promises goals at both ends, driven by contrasting home and away performances. Rotherham’s modest overall scoring record is skewed by their struggles on the road. They’ve been far more dangerous at home, averaging 1.3 goals per game. They’ll look to exploit their attacking strengths against a Stockport side with vulnerabilities on their travels.

Stockport, meanwhile, have had a strong season offensively, averaging 1.55 goals per game. Despite a respectable defensive record, they still concede regularly, with an average of 1.05 goals allowed per game.

Having lost 4 of their last 5 away matches, Stockport will potentially push forward looking to make a statement, leaving opportunities for both sides to find the net in what should be an open and competitive contest.

Bromley have shown consistent attacking prowess, especially at home, where they average 1.64 goals per game. This offensive strength makes them well-equipped to exploit Swindon’s defensive frailties. Swindon have conceded the joint-2nd-most goals in the league, with an alarming average of 1.64 goals allowed per game.

Swindon’s away form adds further cause for concern, with just one win from 12 games and a disappointing goal difference of -8 on the road. Bromley’s strong home performances combined with Swindon’s defensive struggles suggest that the hosts could comfortably score at least twice in this matchup.

This fixture is likely to be a tight and low-scoring affair, reflecting the struggles of both teams this season. Sitting in 22nd and 24th, Carlisle and Accrington are fighting to avoid relegation and have struggled both defensively and offensively. While their defensive records are concerning, neither side has the attacking firepower to capitalize.

Carlisle average a mere 0.71 goals per game, highlighting their inefficiency in front of goal. Accrington have fared slightly better, scoring 1.3 goals per game, but their form remains inconsistent.

With both teams desperate for points and lacking in attacking sharpness, expect this match to be cautious and low on goals.
