What will the score be when Leicester City welcome Millwall to the King Power Stadium tomorrow?
That's the question we are asking Leicester Mercury sports writer James Sharpe, who gives us his prediction and also casts his eye over all this weekend's Championship fixtures.
Don't agree? Think you can do better? Have a go yourself. Put your predictions in the comments section and see if you can beat him. It's 3pts for a correct score and just 1pt for the correct result.
Mercury reader foxmanlondon returned to form with an impressive 15pt return last week, thanks to four correct scores and three correct results. And with that he returned to the top of the league table.
There is a three-way tie for second with Sharpe, and Mercury readers Alanprichard and Luxpaul all level on 55 points.
LEICESTER CITY v MILLWALL King Power Stadium, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: For the third time this season, City responded to defeat with victory thanks to David Nugent's double at Ipswich. Millwall may be down the lower reaches of the Championship but they are one of City's bogey teams, having done the double over them for the past two seasons. But City are stronger this season, more adept at grinding out results in tough games. City welcome back Anthony Knockaert too, which will be a huge creative boost, and I just think they will be too strong for Steve Lomas's side. Prediction: 2-1
NOTTINGHAM FOREST v READING City Ground, Friday, 7.45pmVerdict: Forest followed up their victory over City with a good point at home to Burnley last weekend. Reading's form, meanwhile, has been somewhat disappointing. Three draws and a defeat in their last four has seen them slip outside the play-off places. Forest have lost just once at home this season but their squad is currently rife with injuries – in key positions too. I think this could cost them two points.Prediction: 1-1
BOURNEMOUTH v BRIGHTON Dean Court, Saturday, 12.15Verdict: Despite starting the season so brightly after winning promotion from League One, Bournemouth have started to dip in recent weeks. Without a win in their last five with three defeats along the way, and Eddie Howe's side have slipped to 16th. Brighton, meanwhile, are flying with three straight wins and unbeaten in five. Away win for me.Prediction: 1-2
BARNSLEY v BIRMINGHAM Oakwell, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: Barnsley are struggling this season and currently sit second-from-bottom in the Championship table. However, much of this is due to their woeful away record of just one point from their eight games on the road. They are not brilliant at home but are much more resilient. They are unbeaten in four at home with three draws and a win. Birmingham beat Huddersfield away from home last time out but that was only their first win on their travels since the first day of the season.Prediction: 1-1
BLACKBURN v LEEDS Ewood Park, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: Blackburn have had an extremely inconsistent season – they lie 14th in the table after five wins, five draws and six defeats. Leeds, on the other hand, are in a rich vein of form. They have won three on the bounce and five in their last seven. You never know what you are going to get with Blackburn but, on the whole, I think Leeds are favourites.Prediction: 0-2
BLACKPOOL v SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY Bloomfield Road, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: Blackpool came flying out the blocks early in the season but have since began to stutter and are currently suffering that common Championship complaint: inconsistency. Wednesday are yet to win a game on the road all season although have drawn five of their eight away league games this season. Having said that, I still think Blackpool will be too much for the Owls.Prediction: 2-0
CHARLTON v IPSWICH The Valley, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: Chris Powell's men come into this fixture on the back of an excellent 2-0 win over Doncaster while Ipswich will still be reeling from Nugent's brace. I can't see this being the most enticing of contests but Charlton may just have enough to nick it.Prediction: 1-0
DONCASTER v QPR Keepmoat Stadium, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: QPR's result-grinding machine continued last week with yet another 1-0 victory. Harry Redknapp's side doesn't score many goals, in fact they have scored the fewest goals of any of the top 10 team. But they are so difficult to break down and I can't see Doncaster having the firepower or creativity to do so.Prediction: 0-1
HUDDERSFIELD v BURNLEY John Smith's Stadium, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: Burnley may be top of the table on goal difference but their actual form isn't stunning. They are without a win in three games in the league after a hat-trick of draws. A trip to mid-table Huddersfield shouldn't cause Sean Dyche's side too many problems though and I see them getting back to winning ways.Prediction: 0-2
MIDDLESBROUGH v BOLTON Riverside Stadium, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: Since Boro's 4-0 victory over Doncaster, things have taken a downward turn with two defeats and a draw in their last three. Bolton, though, are finally starting to turn on the style – as is a certain Jermaine Beckford. He has netted in each of his last three games, all of which Bolton have won. I wouldn't bet against him doing it again tomorrow.Prediction: 1-2
WATFORD v YEOVIL Vicarage Road, Saturday, 3pmVerdict: Watford's poor run of form, with three defeats and two draws in their last five, has seen them slip out of the play-off places and down to 10th. They couldn't wish for a better chance to get back to winning ways though against a Yeovil side who have lost three on the bounce. I think they'll take that chance.Prediction: 3-1
WIGAN v DERBY DW Stadium, Sunday, 3pmVerdict: Wigan are another side that are struggling for consistency in the rough and tumble of the Championship. Having Europa League commitments can't help them either. They lost their first home game of the season last week against Brighton and Sunday's clash will be even tougher against a Derby side that is impressing under Steve McClaren. I'm really looking forward to this game and think it could well be a close one.Prediction: 1-1
Forest's game against Reading kicks off tonight at 7.45pm so make sure you get your predictions in before then to make it count. City play Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday night but, as always, the predictions are just for the weekend games and will be back next week for the trip to Brighton.
