The Sky Sports Essential EFL podcast looks ahead to QPR vs Millwall
QPR are six unbeaten now since their 7-1 shellacking at Coventry and have moved into play-off contention. They host a Millwall side who thumped West Brom last time out.
David Prutton’s prediction on the Sky Sports Essential EFL podcast:
“It’s been a stunning turnaround for QPR since the thumping at Coventry. We were asking questions about a new boss and what he’d brought to the team, but what a way to put any doubts to bed with that surge up the table. They’re up against another side that, given how the Championship looks this season, should also have aspirations of knocking on the door of the top six.
“The rest of the division is so open, it’s fantastic. Over the course of the season I’d say Millwall might have the edge in consistency, but right now, given the form, it’s QPR. 2-1 home win for me.”
Oxford still just have one win all season and find themselves in the bottom three as the Championship returns following the international break. Derby have also stuttered this campaign so far, with just a sole victory themselves. Both will be hoping to kick-start their campaigns.
Southampton are still not quite up and running under Will Still as they welcome a Swansea side that have slipped into mid-table.
- L1: Burton vs Peterborough, Lincoln vs Stevenage
Burton thumped Bolton 3-0 last weekend to move out of the relegation zone, as they host a Peterborough side that currently prop up the League One table. Lincoln are in sixth heading into the weekend as they host surprise leaders Stevenage.

Lincoln forward Rob Street believes he can recapture the form that saw him excel on loan at Doncaster last season
- L2: Cambridge vs Bromley, Salford vs Oldham
Cambridge and Bromley will both have their eyes set on climbing into the play-off places when they meet at the Abbey. As will a Salford side that have slipped a little in recent weeks. It is a local derby for them as they play host to Oldham.

The Sky Sports Essential EFL podcast looks ahead to Leicester vs Portsmouth
David Prutton’s prediction on the Sky Sports Essential EFL podcast:
“Leicester clearly have aspirations of bouncing straight back to the Premier League, and that win against Swansea – off the back of an absolute draw-fest before then – shows what they’re capable of.
“Both sides had good victories heading into the international break. I’m a big fan of John Mousinho and what he’s done at Pompey. His first protocol again is consolidation and building on what they’ve achieved.
“They’re a big, proud, noisy football club who always travel well, so it’ll be a cracking game. But I think Leicester have the quality to edge this. 2-1.”
