Birmingham City and Swansea City head into their Championship encounter at St Andrew's on Saturday having both recorded much-needed victories last weekend.
However, despite success over Preston North End and Queens Park Rangers, the two clubs still sit in 21st and 19th position in the standings respectively.
We say: Birmingham City 1-1 Swansea City
All things considered, both teams should be pushing hard for all three points after a mixed start to the campaign. However, they will each see the value in a draw, and a low-scoring affair appears to be the most likely outcome.

Blackpool will look to avoid a third consecutive defeat in the Championship when they welcome Middlesbrough to Bloomfield Road on Tuesday.
The visitors, meanwhile, will attempt to record their second victory under Michael Carrick in what will be his fourth game in charge.
We say: Blackpool 1-2 Middlesbrough
After winning two of their last three away games, we think that Middlesbrough will have the confidence to claim a narrow victory over Blackpool.

Both having lost their last two Championship games, Cardiff City and Hull City meet in the Welsh capital on Saturday afternoon.
While Cardiff have now taken just two points from their last five matches, their visitors are still in mid-table following a fast start to the season.
We say: Cardiff City 1-1 Hull City
Hull have not travelled well to date, and as Cardiff have proved they can generally keep things tight, two ambitious clubs may have to settle for a single point.

Queens Park Rangers head into Saturday's fixture with Huddersfield Town looking for the win which could move the club into the Championship playoff places.
In sharp contrast, the visitors travel to Loftus Road sitting four points adrift of safety and desperately in search of just their second win of the campaign.
We say: Queens Park Rangers 2-0 Huddersfield Town
As much as luck has not been on Huddersfield's side this season, they are also responsible for their poor effort on their travels. With that in mind, we expect a comfortable win for QPR, recording a rare clean sheet in the process.

Hoping to strengthen their position at the top of the Championship table, Sheffield United will welcome Rotherham United to Bramall Lane on Saturday.
The Blades find themselves unbeaten in the last seven league outings with 17 points on the board, while their visitors sit seventh with 10 points following their promotion last year.
We say: Sheffield United 2-0 Rotherham United
Rotherham have certainly shown their ability to compete in the Championship so far this season, but the Blades' impeccable home form should be just too much for Warne's men to overcome, and we see Sheffield United taking all three points on Saturday.

Alex Neil will continue his search for a first win as Stoke City manager on Saturday, when the Potters entertain former boss Nathan Jones and his Luton Town side.
The hosts were beaten 2-1 away at Reading in Neil's second game at the helm on Sunday, while their visitors remained just a point better off than their opponents following a defeat to Wigan Athletic by the same scoreline.
We say: Stoke City 1-1 Luton Town
Both teams will fight hard to return to winning ways in Staffordshire on Saturday, but we struggle to pick a winner and anticipate the visiting Hatters doing enough to deny Neil a first win and force a share of the spoils.

Coventry City play host to Wigan Athletic on Tuesday evening with the opportunity to move into the top half of the Championship standings for the first time this season.
Meanwhile, the visitors are in the worst form of the entire division, now sitting in 23rd spot after letting slip a two-goal lead at Swansea City at the weekend.
We say: Coventry City 2-1 Wigan Athletic
Given their form on the road this season, Wigan will remain confident of securing a positive result against the Sky Blues. Nevertheless, Coventry are developing into a team capable of gatecrashing the promotion race, leading us to predict a narrow win for the home side.

We say: Watford 1-0 Reading
As much as Reading supporters are currently enjoying the season, they never know what they are going to get from the Royals. With Watford, you do, especially at home, and we are predicting a narrow victory for the Hornets.
