- Plymouth host Watford on Friday night
- Leaders Sunderland visit Millwall among 10 games on Saturday
- Leeds go to Swansea on Sunday

The Championship roars back into action after this international break with all 24 teams set to play over the weekend.

We look ahead to all 12 games and have a score prediction for each one.

Plymouth vs Watford (Friday, 8pm)

Improving Plymouth have avoided defeat in three of their last four games and they can take a point against inconsistent Watford, who have lost six of their eight league away days.

Score prediction: Plymouth 1-1 Watford

Publicidad

Bristol City vs Burnley (Saturday, 12.30pm)

Bristol City's tough run of fixtures continues but they have lost only one of their last 10 games and could edge out Burnley, who have scored just one goal in their last four matches.

Score prediction: Bristol City 1-0 Burnley

Coventry vs Sheffield United (Saturday, 12.30pm)

Managerless Coventry picked up a point at Sunderland in their first match after sacking Mark Robins but they have lost four of their seven home league games and could find it hard to deny red-hot Sheffield United a fifth straight league win.

Score prediction: Coventry 1-2 Sheffield United

Publicidad

Sheffield Wednesday vs Cardiff (Saturday, 12.30pm)

Sheffield Wednesday's form this season has been a real mixed bag but the Owls could get the better of poor travellers Cardiff, who are winless on the road with only three goals scored in seven away games.

Score prediction: Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 Cardiff

Blackburn vs Portsmouth (Saturday, 3pm)

Blackburn ended a three-match goal drought when winning 3-1 at Cardiff before the break and can build on that at home to Portsmouth, who have conceded 18 goals in eight league away games.

Score prediction: Blackburn 2-1 Portsmouth

Luton vs Hull (Saturday, 3pm)

Hull are on a seven-match winless run and could struggle to take anything from their trip to Luton, who suffered a heavy loss at Middlesbrough before the break but have lost only one of their last six games at home.

Score prediction: Luton 2-1 Hull

Millwall vs Sunderland (Saturday, 3pm)

Millwall are unbeaten in seven games while leaders Sunderland have not lost in their last eight, and both trends could be extended when they meet in London. The Black Cats have drawn their last three games and this could be another close contest.

Score prediction: Millwall 1-1 Sunderland

Publicidad

Oxford vs Middlesbrough (Saturday, 3pm)

Middlesbrough have found form for Michael Carrick, scoring nine goals in their last two games

Middlesbrough have scored nine goals in their last two games and could have too much firepower for Oxford, who have won only one of their last 10 matches.

Score prediction: Oxford 1-3 Middlesbrough

Preston vs Derby (Saturday, 3pm)

Preston held leaders Sunderland to a goalless draw in their last home game and could get the better of poor travellers Derby, who have won just one of their eight Championship away games.

Score prediction: Preston 2-1 Derby

QPR vs Stoke (Saturday, 3pm)

QPR are without a win in 12 games and have not been successful at home all season. Stoke have scored only three goals in seven league away matches, but one might be enough to take the three points.

Score prediction: QPR 0-1 Stoke

West Brom vs Norwich (Saturday, 3pm)

Carlos Corberán will be eager for a West Brom goal after three successive scoreless draws at the Hawthorns

West Brom have had three consecutive goalless draws at home but Norwich are on a six-game winless run and could be vulnerable at the Hawthorns.

Publicidad

Score prediction: West Brom 2-0 Norwich

Swansea vs Leeds (Sunday, 3pm)

Swansea have failed to score in six of their last eight matches and could be overpowered by a talented Leeds attack on Sunday. The Whites have lost only one of their last 10 games and recorded two comfortable wins over the Swans last season.

Score prediction: Swansea 0-2 Leeds
