Preston vs. Middlesbrough (Wednesday, 7.00pm)
Preston North End head into their Championship encounter with Middlesbrough on Wednesday night hoping to lift themselves into the top half of the table with a much-needed home victory.
Meanwhile, Middlesbrough have failed to win any of their last five away matches in the league, including last weekend's 1-0 loss to Stoke City.
We say: Preston North End 0-1 Middlesbrough
Preston have not impressed at Deepdale this season and Wednesday's match could be another difficult task for them. Middlesbrough are unbeaten in their last eight away league matches against the Lilywhites and with the combination of their defensive strength and their quality up front, they should find a way to secure a narrow away victory.
Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Barnsley vs. Wycombe (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Barnsley play host to Wycombe Wanderers on Wednesday evening looking to improve on a run of three defeats from four games in the Championship.
Meanwhile, the visitors, who remain in the relegation zone, have now failed to win any of their last six fixtures in the second tier.
We say: Barnsley 2-0 Wycombe Wanderers
While both teams head into this contest in poor form, this game is set up perfectly for Barnsley to return to winning ways. The Tykes have had extra time to reassess their strategy after the defeat to Bournemouth, and we feel that the home side will record a convincing victory.

Brentford vs. Derby (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Derby County make the trip to promotion-chasing Brentford on Wednesday evening on the back of a much-needed victory over Millwall.
Meanwhile, the Bees head into Wednesday's encounter at their new ground having put together a nine-match unbeaten streak in the Championship.
We say: Brentford 3-1 Derby County
While Derby will undoubtedly be on a high after their success at the weekend, Brentford will be motivated to put things right after dropping two points against Blackburn. With that in mind, expect the Bees to be more ruthless than in previous games, particularly against opponents who may set up looking for a draw.

Bristol City vs. Blackburn (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Bristol City host Blackburn Rovers in the Championship on Wednesday night, with both sides looking to get back into the playoffs and close in on top spot.
The Robins have won only one of their last four league games, whereas Rovers last suffered a league defeat in October against Swansea City.
We say: Bristol City 1-1 Blackburn Rovers
None of Bristol City's last nine home league meetings with Blackburn has ended as a draw, with the Robins winning six and losing the other three, but with the visitors in good form, they should be strong enough to take at least a point away from Ashton Gate.

Norwich vs. Nott'm Forest (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Norwich City host Nottingham Forest on Wednesday night, hoping to secure the three points and remain at the summit of the Championship table.
The Canaries have lost just one of their last 12 home league matches against a Forest team now managed by Chris Hughton, who comes up against his former side for only the second time as a manager at Carrow Road.
We say: Norwich City 2-0 Nottingham Forest
Despite several injuries, Norwich City have managed to cope and get results consistently. The home side's strength and confidence along with the support of 2,000 fans should help them to secure the three points against a Forest side who possess limited attacking threat and have a dismal away record.

Reading vs. Birmingham (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Reading welcome Birmingham City to the Madejski Stadium having returned to form in the Championship with a four-match unbeaten streak.
Meanwhile, Blues head into Wednesday's contest on the back of a surprise win at Bristol City, a result which has kept Aitor Karanka's side clear of the relegation zone.
We say: Reading 2-1 Birmingham City
Reading have been unpredictable this season, something which will only encourage Birmingham as they bid for another triumph on their travels. However, this has all the makings of being a tight game, and we would back the Royals to show their extra quality during the latter stages of the match.
Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.
