Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Saturday's Championship fixtures, including Watford vs. Norwich City.


Barnsley vs. Huddersfield (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Two sides neck-and-neck in the Championship table will lock horns on Boxing Day as Barnsley welcome Huddersfield Town to Oakwell Stadium.

Valerien Ismael's men suffered a 2-0 defeat to Swansea City last weekend which brought their winning streak to an end, whereas Huddersfield managed to beat Watford by the same scoreline.

We say: Barnsley 1-1 Huddersfield Town


The loss of Koroma is sure to affect Huddersfield's goalscoring touch over the next couple of months, but having comfortably beaten a promotion-chasing Watford side, Corberan's men will feel confident going into this one. Ismael's Barnsley will be determined to bounce back from their loss at Swansea, and with Huddersfield struggling for wins on their travels, we are expecting a closely-fought draw in this one.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or draw.

Blackburn vs. Sheff Weds (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Sheffield Wednesday will be hoping to build on their maiden victory under Tony Pulis when they travel to Ewood Park to take on Blackburn Rovers on Boxing Day.

In contrast, the promotion-chasing hosts suffered a setback in their march to the Championship's top six as they lost 1-0 at Stoke City last time out.

We say: Blackburn Rovers 2-0 Sheffield Wednesday


Despite finally managing to lead his strugglers to a much-needed three points, Pulis is facing an uphill battle to make Sheffield Wednesday's trip to Blackburn count for something. The hosts have become renowned for their goalscoring capabilities - even with a plethora of injuries - and the Owls have only mustered five strikes on the road all season, so this should be a routine win for Mowbray's side.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Bristol City vs. Wycombe (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Bristol City play host to Wycombe Wanderers on Boxing Day looking to end a three-match losing streak in the Championship.

Meanwhile, the visitors are without a win since November 4, a run which has left the division minnows four points adrift of safety.

We say: Bristol City 2-1 Wycombe Wanderers


Despite the difference in class, we expect a closely-fought contest at Ashton Gate as both teams look to get back on track. Nevertheless, the Robins should have too much quality for a side who may be tempted to take more risks than normal going forward.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Cardiff vs. Brentford (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Fresh on the back of reaching their first ever major cup semi-final, Brentford switch focus back to Championship matters as they travel to Cardiff City on Boxing Day.

The Bees are unbeaten in 13 league matches and are fourth in the table, six points better off than 10th-placed opponents Cardiff.

We say: Cardiff City 1-2 Brentford


Brentford will enter this game on a real high following their cup victory over Newcastle in midweek.

The Bees are unbeaten in six away league games, winning four of those, and we can see them overcoming an inconsistent Cardiff side this weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Coventry vs. Stoke (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Stoke City make the short trip to Coventry City on Boxing Day knowing that victory could move the club into the Championship playoffs.

After defeat to lowly Sheffield Wednesday, the Sky Blues head into this contest sitting six points clear of the relegation zone.

We say: Coventry City 1-1 Stoke City


With both sides struggling in the final third, this game could easily end in a goalless draw. However, it is surely only a matter of time before they get back on track in front of goal, resulting in a more entertaining spectacle than many are currently predicting.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Derby vs. Preston (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Derby County welcome Preston North End to Pride Park on Boxing Day as they look to put consecutive wins together for the first time this season.

Wayne Rooney's side are currently stuck in the relegation zone, but a win against Preston could see them climb out of the bottom three.

We say: Derby County 1-0 Preston North End


Derby are usually involved in low scoring affairs, and this one will likely be no different. Preston do travel well, but with the Rams currently enjoying a recent revival and an extra few days of rest, Rooney's side could come away with the three points over the weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Nott'm Forest vs. Birmingham (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Nottingham Forest welcome Birmingham City to the City Ground with the opportunity to move within two points of the visitors in the Championship standings.

While Forest are unbeaten in their last two outings, Blues have conceded eight goals during three successive defeats.

We say: Nottingham Forest 2-1 Birmingham City


While both managers are under pressure heading into this contest, it is Karanka who will be more unsure of his tactics. With that in mind, we are backing an improving Forest outfit to edge out Blues, potentially via a goal scored in the latter stages.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or draw.

QPR vs. Swansea (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Queens Park Rangers host Swansea City on Boxing Day with the London side hoping to end a seven-game winless run.

Mark Warburton's men last picked up three points towards the end of November, and they will be desperate to halt their decline towards the relegation places over the festive period.

We say: Queens Park Rangers 0-2 Swansea City


Swansea are in good form, pushing for promotion back to the Premier League, while QPR are currently looking nervously over their shoulder.

The Hoops struggle to score goals and are facing the best defence in the division. It is hard to see them finding a way past Freddie Woodman, and the Swans should secure the win.

Reading vs. Luton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Reading host Luton Town on Boxing Day with the Royals looking to bounce back from two consecutive defeats and keep in touch with the leading pack.

Despite a very strong start to the season, Reading have fallen to eighth position and welcome a much-improved Luton side to the Madejski Stadium in this festive fixture.

We say: Reading 1-1 Luton Town


The two teams are in similar form coming into this clash, and there will not be much to separate the sides on the day. A share of the spoils would satisfy both managers, and they could settle for a point at the start of this festive fixture pile-up.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or draw.

Watford vs. Norwich (Saturday, 7.45pm)

Watford's new manager Xisco Munoz will take charge of his first match at his new club when league leaders Norwich City make the trip to Vicarage Road on Boxing Day.

Both sides were relegated from the Premier League last season, but they have experienced differing fortunes since then.

We say: Watford 1-2 Norwich City


Norwich have scored two goals in each of their last five outings, and we are backing them to do the same on Saturday. Xisco will not have had much time to work with his new squad and has been given a tough task to kickstart his tenure.

The Canaries are in scintillating form and are unlikely to take their foot off the gas anytime soon. A narrow victory for Farke's men is the most likely outcome in this festive feast and it could prove pivotal in the Championship promotion race.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.
