Blackburn Rovers play host to Reading on Wednesday evening looking to secure the win which would keep the club in the Championship playoffs.
At a time when Rovers occupy fifth position in the standings, Reading are down in 16th spot on the back of three successive defeats.
We say: Blackburn Rovers 2-0 Reading
While anything can happen in the Championship, this feels like one of those games which could be a foregone conclusion. The teams are at the opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to their respective home and away records, leading us to back a comfortable win for Rovers.

Cardiff City will be looking to get back to winning ways when they welcome promotion-chasing West Bromwich Albion to South Wales on Wednesday night in the Championship.
The Bluebirds were beat at Deepdale by Preston North End on the weekend, whereas Albion secured back-to-back home wins by defeating strugglers Huddersfield Town.
We say: Cardiff City 1-2 West Bromwich Albion
Cardiff have their Championship fate in their own hands and will be confident of avoiding the drop by earning a couple more wins between now and May.
West Brom travel to Wales needing to prove they can earn points on the road in order to keep their playoff dreams alive, and we believe they will get a much-needed maximum on Wednesday night.

Norwich City make the trip to Huddersfield Town on Wednesday evening looking for the win which may move the club back into the Championship playoff spots.
While the Canaries currently occupy seventh place in the standings, Huddersfield remain in 23rd position, six points adrift of safety.
We say: Huddersfield Town 1-3 Norwich City
Although Huddersfield have improved defensively of late, they need to show as much focus to scoring goals. That will be a difficult balance to find against Norwich, leading us to predict victory for the visitors.

Burnley will be looking to extend their unbeaten run in the Championship when they travel to the MKM Stadium to face Hull City in the Championship on Wednesday night.
The Clarets have been this season's standout performers and look destined for promotion in May, while the Tigers will be happy with progress they have made since the start of the campaign.
We say: Hull City 0-2 Burnley
Hull are looking to achieve a top-half finish in the Championship for the first time since the 2015-16 campaign, but face a Burnley side who are on a relentless unbeaten run.
The Clarets were able to cruise to victory against 10-man Wigan on Saturday, so Kompany's team should have plenty of energy to put in another commanding display at the MKM Stadium in this one.

Luton Town play host to Bristol City on Wednesday evening looking to further strengthen their hold of a spot in the Championship playoffs.
The Hatters currently sit in fourth place in the table, five points clear of seventh, while the visitors are now in 13th position after an improved run since the turn of the year.
We say: Luton Town 2-0 Bristol City
Expectation is building at Luton, something which could either boost or destabilise their promotion bid. On this occasion, we feel that it will be the former as we expect the Hatters to put on a professional display, motivated to improve in front of their own supporters.

Sunderland will be aiming for back-to-back wins to keep their playoff hopes alive when they welcome high-flying Sheffield United to the Stadium of Light on Wednesday night in the Championship.
The Black Cats were surprise winners at Norwich City on the weekend, while Sheffield United suffered a loss that puts further doubt on their top-two credentials this season.
We say: Sunderland 1-2 Sheffield United
Sunderland maintained their playoff dreams with a win at Norwich on Sunday and now must deal with the quick turnaround to face another of the division's best outfits in Sheffield United.
The Blades are beginning to feel the pressure as the likes of Middlesbrough hunt them down in the table, but we can see United getting back to winning ways at the Stadium of Light.
