Sunday's Championship predictions including Reading vs. Swansea City

Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Sunday's Championship fixtures - Reading vs. Swansea City and Bristol City vs. Luton.

Swansea City square off against Reading on Sunday afternoon knowing that they will secure their place in the Championship playoffs by avoiding defeat at the Madejski Stadium.

Sitting six points adrift of the top six, Reading realistically require three victories in succession to give themselves a chance of promotion to the Premier League.

We say: Reading 1-1 Swansea City


Reading will inevitably push for victory from the opening whistle, something which could benefit them given the calibre of their players in the final third. Nevertheless, we expect Swansea to rise to the occasion, earning a share of the spoils with a goal on the counter.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Bristol City vs. Luton (Sunday, 1.00pm)

Luton Town face Bristol City at Ashton Gate with the opportunity to move a step closer to earning a top-10 spot in the Championship standings.

The home side, who sit six points adrift of their next opponents, have dropped down to 15th position after seven matches without success.

We say: Bristol City 1-2 Luton Town


With little to play for, both sides could throw caution to the wind here as they bid to end the campaign on a high. On paper, the home team have the better players, but we are backing the Hatters to extend their current form with another three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
