West Bromwich Albion will be looking to return to winning ways in the Championship when they travel to Bloomfield Road to face Blackpool on Tuesday night.
The Baggies are currently third in the Championship table, eight points behind second-placed Bournemouth, while Blackpool occupy 10th, having picked up 26 points from their opening 18 matches of the season.
We say: Blackpool 1-1 West Bromwich Albion
West Brom will be determined to return to winning ways on Tuesday, but Blackpool have only been beaten in six of their 18 league matches this term and are a team to be taken seriously at this level of football. The visitors could ultimately be left frustrated, as we are backing a low-scoring draw here.

High-flying Coventry City will be looking to return to winning ways in the Championship when they welcome Birmingham City on Tuesday night.
Coventry are currently fifth in the Championship table, just one point behind third-placed West Bromwich Albion, while Birmingham sit 15th with 22 points to show from their opening 18 matches of the season.
We say: Coventry City 2-1 Birmingham City
Coventry have not beaten Birmingham in the league since February 2009, but we are expecting that run to end in this match. Robins's side have only lost one of their last five in the Championship and should have just about enough to overcome their 15th-placed opponents on Tuesday night.

Middlesbrough play host to Preston North End on Tuesday night looking for the victory which could move them back into the top half of the Championship standings.
However, should 16th-placed Preston prevail at the Riverside Stadium, they will progress a point ahead of their North-East hosts.
We say: Middlesbrough 2-1 Preston North End
With neither team being in great form, they will both be eager to use this game as the catalyst for greater things to come. While Preston still have the win at Bournemouth fresh in their memory, we expect Boro to edge this contest by the odd goal in three.

Nottingham Forest and Luton Town square off in the Championship on Tuesday evening looking for the victory which should take them into the top 10 of the standings.
Both teams have found victories in short supply, however, and the pressure has increased ahead of trying to keep in close proximity to the playoffs.
We say: Nottingham Forest 2-1 Luton Town
With Luton having dropped off in the final third, we can only back a Forest win. Although Cooper's side have also lost their way to a certain degree, they have been able to bounce back in front of their own supporters in the past.

Reading vs. Sheff Utd (Tuesday, 8.00pm)

Sheffield United will look to put an end to a four-game league winless run on Tuesday, when they travel south to take on Reading.
The Blades remain 17th in the Championship table after a draw with Coventry City on Saturday, while their hosts were involved in a share of the spoils with Nottingham Forest at home at the weekend.
We say: Reading 1-1 Sheffield United
Given the form of the two sides, we cannot quite pick a winner on Tuesday and instead expect a second straight draw for each team.
The Blades should be somewhat positive after a solid home showing on Saturday but have struggled to consistently put sides to the sword this term, and we see them leaving with a point.

Blackburn Rovers play host to Peterborough United on Wednesday evening looking for the victory which will keep them in close proximity to the Championship playoffs.
Meanwhile, Peterborough make the trip to Ewood Park sitting in the relegation zone after putting together a run of four games without a win.
We say: Blackburn Rovers 3-1 Peterborough United
Having lost all momentum, a trip to a team with a strong home record is less than ideal for Peterborough. Blackburn have not always been perfect this season, but we still expect Mowbray's men to make light work of Posh.

Fulham vs. Derby (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Top meets bottom in the Championship on Wednesday evening as leaders Fulham play host to Derby County.
While the Cottagers sit nine points clear in the race for automatic promotion to the Premier League, the Rams are 15 points of safety at the other end of the standings.
We say: Fulham 3-0 Derby County
Having stunned Bournemouth at the weekend, Derby have alleviated a certain degree of pressure ahead of this contest. However, despite being able to play with a greater sense of freedom, it would come as a surprise if Fulham do not cruise to victory in West London.

Poya Asbaghi begins his reign as Barnsley head coach with a home fixture against Swansea City on Wednesday evening.
At a time when the Tykes are four points adrift of safety in the Championship, the visitors occupy 12th position in the table.
We say: Barnsley 1-2 Swansea City
With Barnsley heading into the unknown with Asbaghi, this is a difficult match to predict. While we expect instant improvements from the Tykes, it may not be enough to get the better of a Swansea side who have an effective way of playing under Martin.

Stoke City make the trip to Bristol City on Wednesday evening looking to record their fourth successive victory in the Championship.
Meanwhile, the home side continue to struggle in the second tier, a three-match winless streak leaving Nigel Pearson's side down in 20th spot in the table.
We say: Bristol City 1-2 Stoke City
Bristol City have been on an upward trajectory at home, their return from the last two games the best in nine months. However, we cannot look past Stoke, who have the qualities to edge a close game at Ashton Gate.

Millwall vs. Bournemouth (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Bournemouth will look to bounce back from a disappointing defeat when they return to action with a trip to Millwall on Wednesday.
A loss to basement side Derby County at the weekend saw Scott Parker's men slip from the summit of the Championship table, while their hosts sit ninth and have not suffered a defeat in any of their last three outings.
We say: Millwall 1-1 Bournemouth
Bournemouth have shown their eye-catching quality this season, and they will be as determined as ever to get back to winning ways, but the hosts are by no means easy to beat.
The resilience of Rowett's men could see them earn an impressive point against a wounded Cherries side.
