Bristol City vs. Wigan (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Bristol City will be looking to extend their 2023 unbeaten streak when they play host to Wigan Athletic in the Championship on Wednesday evening.
While the home side currently sit seven points adrift of the playoff places, Wigan remain in the relegation zone despite a rare victory at the weekend.
We say: Bristol City 2-0 Wigan Athletic
Given the early improvements under Maloney, Wigan will believe that they can cause the upset in this fixture. However, we would not back against Bristol City against many second-tier opponents right now, leading us to predict a hard-earned home win.

Preston vs. Luton (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Preston North End face off against Luton Town at Deepdale in the Championship on Wednesday night, in a match where both sides are looking to get back to winning ways.
The hosts have lost their last three matches in all competitions, while the visitors are winless in two, having suffered a 3-0 defeat away against League Two side Grimsby Town earlier this month.
We say: Preston North End 0-1 Luton Town
Luton games usually tend to be tight affairs, so we do not expect them to win by many, but they should have enough about them to get three points on the board on Wednesday night.
The Hatters' away form has been fantastic all season, while Preston have put in some very poor performances of late, so the likely result is a narrow victory for the visitors.

Swansea vs. Blackpool (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Swansea City play host to Blackpool on Wednesday evening looking to end a three-match winless streak in the Championship.
At a time when the home side sit in 15th position in the standings, Blackpool are now bottom, despite avoiding defeat in their most recent two games.
We say: Swansea City 2-1 Blackpool
Based on their respective last two matches, Blackpool will fancy their chances of heaping further pressure on Martin in South Wales. Nevertheless, the home side are due a change in fortunes, and we feel that their superior quality in the final third will see them come through this fixture by the odd goal in three.

Stoke vs. Huddersfield (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
Stoke City play host to Huddersfield Town on Wednesday evening looking for a win which they require to move clear of the Championship relegation zone.
Although the Potters occupy 19th spot in the standings, they sit just six points clear of their 23rd-placed opponents, who can progress out of the bottom three with a victory at the bet365 Stadium.
We say: Stoke City 1-0 Huddersfield Town
This has all the makings of an uninspiring game with each team having shown little form in the Championship. However, Stoke do still possess quality in attack, and that could prove crucial in edging this contest by the odd goal.

Sheff Utd vs. Middlesbrough (Wednesday, 8.00pm)
Sheffield United will welcome Middlesbrough to Bramall Lane on Wednesday for an important game at the top end of the Championship table.
The Blades currently sit second with a 10-point lead and a game in hand over their third-placed visitors, after both triumphed in their last league outing at the weekend.
We say: Sheffield United 1-1 Middlesbrough
Both teams are in particularly strong runs of form, and while Boro will be desperate for all three points and have the quality to harm the second-placed Blades, we do not see them coming out on top at Bramall Lane and instead envisage a share of the spoils which would keep Heckingbottom's men 10 points clear.

West Brom vs. Blackburn (Wednesday, 8.00pm)
West Bromwich Albion will be looking to get back to winning ways when they clash with Blackburn Rovers in the Championship at The Hawthorns on Wednesday night.
The Baggies were outbattled in their recent West Midlands derby with Birmingham City, whereas Blackburn earned a respectable point at promoting-chasing Watford last time out.
We say: West Bromwich Albion 2-1 Blackburn Rovers
West Brom have faltered slightly in recent away games at Burnley, Bristol City and Birmingham, however the Baggies have been exceptional at The Hawthorns since Corberan took charge and his side will be confident of continuing that form.
Despite a dip in form since December, Blackburn are still in the hunt for a top-six place and would send out a real statement if they defeated Albion in this one - however we see them narrowly losing out.
