Norwich v Reading

Sky Sports Action

Reading are in the same position in the Sky Bet Championship standings as they were when Paul Clement was sacked in December and their battle against the drop could take a turn for the worse at title-chasing Norwich.

The Canaries extended their lead at the top to seven points with their eighth successive win against QPR on Saturday.

With the Royals firing blanks against other promotion hopefuls Sheffield United and Leeds since the turn of the year, Daniel Farke's men look value to win without conceding.

Recommendation
Norwich to win to nil
1pt 29-20 Coral

Brentford v Ipswich

Sky Sports red button

Ipswich will be relegated if they lose and Millwall, Wigan and Reading all win but they are going down fighting.

The Tractor Boys were 2-1 victors away to Bolton last time out and have put in spirited performances to draw away to West Brom and Bristol City in recent weeks. They look overpriced to salvage at least a point against a Brentford side who have little to play for.

Recommendation
Ipswich & draw double chance
1pt 9-5 bet365

Hull v Wigan

Sky Sports red button

Hull are unlikely to return to the Premier League this season but they are in good form and can assert their superiority over Wigan.

While the Latics are languishing in the table's lower reaches, Hull are nestled in mid-table after wins over Ipswich and Reading. They can make it a hat-trick of triumphs over lowly opposition by beating Wigan, who have one win in their last ten games.

Recommendation
Hull
1pt 5-4 Betfred

Millwall v QPR

Sky Sports red button

Home form has kept Millwall's survival hopes alive this season and out-of-sorts QPR could be the latest side to leave the Den with nothing.

Seven of the Lions's ten wins have come on home soil after they saw off promotion-chasing West Brom on Saturday and they can take the spoils in a softer assignment against the Hoops, who were battered by Norwich at the weekend.

Recommendation
Millwall
1pt 21-20 Betfred, Betway

Rotherham v Aston Villa

Sky Sports red button

There is plenty of incentive for both relegation-battling Rotherham and top-six hopefuls Aston Villa and the goals could flood in at the New York Stadium.

The Villans are on a run of six successive wins but they have conceded in three of their last four games, while both teams have scored in nine of United's last ten fixtures.

Recommendation
Both teams to score
2pts 4-6 general
