Reading v Derby I have analysed the last 5 years data. Derby haven't lost at Reading in that time. The bookings market is interesting as there have always been at least 4 cards ( 2 out of 5 seasons had a red card as well). There have been over 10 corners the last 4 seasons.

Fair call Catchy. To that end I've summarised for the last 3 seasons: 1. Teams relegated to the Championship from the Premier league ( 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses for the 2016-17 and 2015-16 seasons) 2. Teams promoted to the Championship from Division 1 (1 win and 5 losses) So another interesting trends seems to be promoted teams struggle (this intuitively makes sense as teams coming from a lower standard of football and likely the financial budgets are smaller)

I thought I would post the opening fixtures and results from the Championship for the last 2 seasons. The odds are William Hills. My observations are that only one team was priced as odds-on over the two seasons; Bristol City last year and duly obliged. The season coming is showing (from opening poster OP) two teams that are odds on. Brentford v Rotherham and West Brom v Bolton. I couldn't really argue with either. For me a slight anomaly might be the fact that over the 24 games from the prior two seasons there were only 3 aways. I think that this time of year due to lack of form the emphasis should be on seeing how the respective teams have played against each other in the past.

yes please , would like details closer to the time. Cheers

[h=1]Championship Opta Facts - August 28-29[/h] Blackburn v Bolton Jordan Rhodes scored the winner the last time the two Lancastrian sides met in March. Rhodes has scored four goals in three home games v Wanderers, but could miss this game due to injury. Bolton are looking to avoid a third successive defeat at Ewood Park against their neighbours, something which last happened to them in December 1999. Blackburn have scored in 11 of their last 12 league games at Ewood Park, however, they've also conceded in 10 of those matches. Stephen Dobbie's 90th minute equaliser against Nottm Forest last time out was the Trotters' first league goal in six games. Bolton have won only one of their last 12 away games (D2 L9), losing the last three in a row. Since making his league debut for Blackburn in February 2014, Craig Conway has provided six more assists than any other Championship player (24). Derby v Leeds Derby have won each of their last six league games at home to Leeds, and are unbeaten in their last eight against them at the iPro Stadium. Mirco Antenucci scored both of Leeds' goals in their 2-0 win over Derby at Elland Road last season. It is the Whites' only victory in their last 13 league games against the Rams (D2 L10). The Rams are without a league win in seven attempts, drawing six and losing one. After failing to score in his previous 19 competitive appearances, Chris Wood has now scored in his last two. Johnny Russell has scored in back to back league games for the first time since December 2014. Russell has never netted in three successive league games for Derby. Leeds have drawn their last five league games in a row; a joint-club record also set in 1962 and 1997. Brentford v Reading Brentford won both meetings against Reading last season, the first time the two sides had met in the second tier. The Royals have won just one of their last nine trips to Griffin Park (D3 L5). Brentford have conceded exactly two goals in six of their last seven league games (incl. play-offs) on home soil. Reading have picked up only one win from their last nine games on the road, losing five (D3). Overall, the Royals have won just once in the last 14 Championship matches (D6 L7). Alan Judge - who has two goals to his name already this season - has netted three and assisted two more in his last four appearances against Reading. Bristol City v Burnley Bristol City conceded seven times across the two meetings with Burnley in 2012/13 - losing 4-3 at home and 3-1 away. The Clarets have lost just two of their last eight league games against Bristol City (W4 D2). No side has scored more set-piece goals (excl. penalties) this season than Burnley (3) - level with Rotherham. Three of Burnley's four league goals this season have been headers. The Clarets have won their last two games against the Robins; they've never won three in a row. Bristol City have shipped as many goals in their last three league games at Ashton Gate as they did in their previous 15 (8). Huddersfield v QPR Huddersfield have lost three of their last four league fixtures against QPR, drawing the other. QPR have won just two of their 11 league visits to Huddersfield (D3 L6). Nahki Wells has scored two of the Terriers' three league goals so far this season. Championship top scorer Charlie Austin scored both of QPR's goals the last time the two sides met in January 2014 - a 2-1 win for the Hoops. Austin (5) has played a part in more goals this term than any other Championship player (four goals, one assist). Seven of Wells' last eight Championship goals have been scored at the John Smiths' Stadium. Tjaronn Chery has had more shots on target than any Championship player so far this season (8), with Matty Phillips firing in seven on target. Hull v Preston Hull have kept a clean sheet in four of their last five league games against Preston, shipping three in the other. Preston have lost four of their last five league contests with Hull (W1). No side has kept more clean sheets (3) or conceded fewer goals (2) this term than Preston, though they've only scored twice in their four games so far. Hull have won both of their home games this campaign, netting exactly two goals in each match. Joe Garner has fired in more shots in 2015/16 than any other Championship player, although he is yet to get off the mark this season (16 shots, 0 goals). No player has created more goalscoring chances in the Championship this season than Preston's Paul Gallagher (15). Ipswich v Brighton Ipswich have netted two goals in each of their last four against Brighton in the Championship, with three of those ending 2-0. Brighton's 3-2 win in January over the Tractor Boys ended a run of three successive defeats against them. Freddie Sears has scored or assisted 11 goals in his last 12 league appearances for the Tractor Boys (seven goals, four assists). Brighton are unbeaten in five league games (W3 D2); they last went six without losing in May 2014 (eight games). Brighton defender Bruno has made more interceptions than any other player in this season's Championship (20). Ipswich have scored in each of their last 16 league games (excl. play-offs), registering exactly two in the last six. Daryl Murphy has scored in each of his last three appearances against the Seagulls. MK Dons v Birmingham This will be the first league meeting between MK Dons and Birmingham. Birmingham did however play MK Dons in the League Cup in 2010/11, beating them 3-1 in the third round on their way to the trophy. Birmingham City have scored a joint-league-high three goals from outside the box this season. MK Dons stopper David Martin has so far made the most saves in this season's Championship (17). The Dons have won 11 of their last 15 league games, losing just once (D3). Gary Rowett has won 43% of his league games in charge of Birmingham City, while his predecessor Lee Clark won just 27%. Nottm Forest v Cardiff Forest have lost five of their last six league games to the Bluebirds, winning the other. Cardiff have never beaten Nottingham Forest in four successive league games. Since the start of last season, Michail Antonio has had a hand in 28 goals for Nottm Forest (13 assists, 15 goals), more than any other player at the club. Forest have won only one of their last 12 Championship games (D4 L7), though they are unbeaten in the last three. Cardiff have won three and lost none of their last seven league games. Federico Macheda has three goals in three games against Forest but is yet to make an appearance in the league for the Bluebirds this term. Rotherham v Fulham Both Championship games between Rotherham and Fulham ended in draws last season. Rotherham led four times in the two meetings, being pegged back each time. Ross McCormack scored Fulham's first goal in both meetings with Rotherham last season. Rotherham have conceded more goals than any other Championship team this season (10). Indeed, nine of those 10 goals conceded have arrived in open play. The Millers have lost three of their last four games in league competition (D1). Fulham have gone five games without a win in the league (D2 L3), this after going unbeaten in the five beforehand. Ross McCormack has scored nine goals in his last 13 games for Fulham in all competitions. Sheff Wed v Middlesbrough Wednesday have won each of their last three against Boro in the league; they haven't won four in a row against them since April 1991. Middlesbrough have lost six of their last seven visits to Hillsborough, winning the other. The Owls have made a league-high three errors leading directly to goals this season; two more than their total in 2014/15. Kike has scored three goals from just six shots on target in 2015/16. Sheffield Wednesday have lost only once in their last seven at Hillsborough (W2 D4). Wolves v Charlton Wolves haven't lost any of their last four home league games against the Addicks (W2 D2). After losing four in a row to Wolves, Charlton are now unbeaten in their last four league games against them (W1 D3). Johann Berg Gudmundsson's stoppage time winner against Hull last week is the latest goal scored in the Championship so far this season (97:59). Indeed, it surpasses the latest goal scored in the Championship last season - Loza, Norwich v Huddersfield (97:20). Wolves have gone five league games without a clean sheet at Molineux, this after keeping four in the previous five.

[h=1]League Two Opta Facts - August 29[/h] Accrington v Northampton Accrington have lost their last three at home in the league to Northampton, including a 5-1 thumping last season.

Accrington haven't kept a clean-sheet against Northampton since August 2011, conceding 18 goals in seven games since then (W2 L5). Northampton have won five of their previous six games against Accrington, losing only in the epic 5-4 game at Sixfields last season. AFC Wimbledon v Exeter The Dons have never lost at home to Exeter in league competition (W2 D1). Exeter have never failed to score in three visits to AFC Wimbledon, though they've never kept a clean sheet either.

Crawley have managed the lowest number of shots on target in League Two (9). Only Norwich (10) have won more away games in 2015 than Wycombe (9) in the top four tiers (including playoffs). The Red Devils have kept two clean-sheets in a row, but haven't kept three in a row since April 2013.

Bristol Rovers are looking to win four successive away league fixtures for the first time since April 1990. Luton v Portsmouth Luton have lost only one of their last 18 home league games against Portsmouth (W13 D4).

I actually suggested not touching any match in Greece. You admit it's not uncommon in this part of the world (especially now given the issues with Capital controls). This match will not define their season. With 10 men , here and a full team in the return leg they should still easily qualify.

Lol . No I'm not retarded though my Missus sometimes thinks I am. No bet was suggested. PAOK will still win the game - it's possible the fixing part was the red card. Irrespective it's two legged so even if they lost they would still win the away game. Don't be surprised to see Spartak Trnava get a red as well.

Re. PAOK I would not touch any match in Greece. Especially strong favourites as they are in economic trouble as a country and will make more money betting / fixing than actually playing.
