- Burnley host West Brom on Tuesday night
- Sheffield United bid to go top when Bristol City visit Bramall Lane
- Leeds are at home to Millwall on Wednesday

It is tight in the promotion and relegation races with 10 games left in the Championship season. We look ahead to all 12 games and have a score prediction for each one.

Burnley vs West Brom (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Burnley have won their last two home games 4-0 but it should be a tighter contest when they host West Brom. The Baggies have conceded only once in their last three matches and one goal may be enough for the Clarets.

Score prediction: Burnley 1-0 West Brom

Cardiff vs Luton (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

This could be a key fixture in the Championship relegation battle and Cardiff can climb further clear of trouble. The Bluebirds have performed well despite losing their last three tough fixtures, while Luton have lost 15 of their 18 away league games including the last three without scoring.

Score prediction: Cardiff 2-0 Luton

Derby vs Coventry (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Derby gave themselves hope with their win over Blackburn but now they run into a red-hot Coventry team who have won nine of their last 11 matches including the last five. The Sky Blues can claim a fifth straight away success.

Score prediction: Derby 1-3 Coventry

Middlesbrough vs QPR (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Both these teams have lost six of their last eight matches but Boro should have enough about them to register a Riverside victory. QPR have lost their last four away games and Boro won 4-1 when the teams met in London in November.

Score prediction: Middlesbrough 1-0 QPR

Norwich vs Sheffield Wednesday (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Norwich could not convert their domination of the ball into victory at home to Oxford last Friday, but they have had an extra day to prepare and have lost only one of their last eight games. 

Wednesday have more away wins than home successes but could suffer a fifth defeat in seven games.

Score prediction: Norwich 2-1 Sheffield Wednesday

Sunderland vs Preston (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Regis Le Bris has led Sunderland up to fourth place in the Championship

These teams drew 0-0 at Deepdale in November, while North End knocked the Black Cats out of the Carabao Cup earlier in the season. The visitors could frustrate their hosts again but Sunderland are strong at home and can edge it.

Score prediction: Sunderland 1-0 Preston

Sheffield United vs Bristol City (Tuesday, 8pm)

Sheffield United can take the opportunity to move to the top of the table by winning this clash of two in-form teams. City are unbeaten in five games but the Blades have won six of their last seven and can complete a double over their visitors.

Score prediction: Sheffield United 2-1 Bristol City

Hull vs Oxford United (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Hull have twice as many away league wins (six) than home successes (three) but they can come out on top against poor travellers Oxford, who have only one away victory this season. 

United are winless in eight games while Hull have just one defeat in their last five matches.

Score prediction: Hull 2-0 Oxford

Leeds vs Millwall (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Leeds are having a mini-wobble and may feel the pressure even more if Sheffield United and Burnley go above them on Tuesday.

Millwall beat Leeds in the FA Cup too, but on the balance of the teams' form the Whites should come out on top at home.

Score prediction: Leeds 2-1 Millwall

Portsmouth vs Plymouth (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Portsmouth's excellent home form has kept them clear of trouble and they should be buzzing after their weekend win over Leeds. Argyle have lost their way since their FA Cup heroics and could suffer a fourth straight defeat.

Score prediction: Portsmouth 3-1 Plymouth

Watford vs Swansea (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Both these teams have picked up after recent quiet spells and this could be a decent game. Watford are strong at home but the Swans have taken seven points from their last three matches and could add another.

Score prediction: Watford 1-1 Swansea

Stoke vs Blackburn (Wednesday, 8pm)

Eight home draws have hampered Stoke's progress this season but they could record a welcome win when Blackburn visit. Rovers have lost five of their last six away games and were beaten 2-0 in the teams' first meeting this season.

Score prediction: Stoke 2-1 Blackburn
