Ipswich vs Norwich, Saturday 12.30pm – Live on Sky Sports Football

We have needed to wait a very long time for this fixture return, however the East Anglian derby is again after almost 5 years! What an event it guarantees to be. The tables have turned since they final met in 2019, a season which noticed the 2 golf equipment heading in reverse instructions.

Now Ipswich are flying excessive, and Norwich are labouring a bit in mid-table – albeit with an upturn in kind not too long ago. It has been almost 15 years because the Canaries misplaced to their rivals, and David Wagner is aware of the followers won’t neglect defeat at Portman Road shortly.

I feel there will likely be targets, and Norwich would possibly properly nick a draw.

Prediction: 2-2 (Sky Bet odds)

Bristol City vs Sunderland, Saturday 3pm

It shouldn’t be actually understanding for Liam Manning thus far. It is early days, however the recognition of his predecessor Nigel Pearson at Bristol City meant he actually needed to hit the bottom working with good outcomes – but it surely is only one win in six.

Sunderland have loved an amazing week below interim boss Mike Dodds. Two wins towards two prime opponents on the Stadium of Light will see them filled with confidence heading to Ashton Gate. Away win.

Prediction: 1-2 (Sky Bet odds)

Leeds vs Coventry, Saturday 3pm

Leeds have as many factors after 21 video games as Burnley did final season. The distinction is the Clarets didn’t should cope with the runaway tempo of Leicester and Ipswich, which has made setbacks just like the one at Sunderland in midweek appear disastrous.

Coventry are ticking alongside and bettering. They had been held by Southampton in midweek, and it is going to be fascinating to see how a lot chasing round towards the Saints could have taken out of them as they head to Elland Road. But I’m tipping Leeds to bounce again and win.

Prediction: 2-1 (Sky Bet odds)

Sheffield Wednesday vs QPR, Saturday 3pm

For a second it appeared prefer it might need been three wins on the spin for Sheffield Wednesday, however their desires of that had been foiled at Norwich in midweek. Despite that end result, issues are wanting much more eager for them than they had been a few weeks in the past.

The identical will be stated of QPR, who most likely ought to have made it 4 wins in a row towards Plymouth on Wednesday, with a victory that will have moved them out of the underside three. Instead, they might do this at Hillsborough. Draw right here for me that won’t assist both aspect an enormous quantity.

Prediction: 1-1 (Sky Bet odds)

West Brom vs Stoke, Sunday 12pm – Live on Sky Sports Football

A good win for West Brom in midweek at Rotherham. It was anticipated they might, but additionally much-needed after powerful back-to-back defeats towards Leicester and Sunderland.

Stoke are the guests, they usually noticed their run of defeats ended with a draw towards Swansea on Tuesday evening, however even that was a irritating end result after conceding late on. They want a supervisor and to begin shifting in the proper course. Home win right here.

Prediction: 2-0 (Sky Bet odds)

Birmingham vs Leicester, Mon 8pm – Live on Sky Sports Football

That was a large win for Wayne Rooney and Birmingham at Cardiff. Just his second since taking cost, and simply their most spectacular of the 2. Can that kickstart their season?

The drawback is, Leicester are their subsequent opponents. They look again on music after their mini dip in kind, and it’ll take quite a bit for the Blues to cease them. I don’t really feel they are going to. Foxes win.

Prediction: 0-2 (Sky Bet odds)
