Championship TV tips for August 12 and 13

Although the Premier League returns this weekend, there’s also Championship TV tips to be had with two live offerings.

Brighton and Hove Albion v Nottingham Forest is first up on Friday night, and that is followed by Norwich City v Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday teatime.

What are the best bets for these games? Coral football experts give their Championship TV tips for Brighton v Forest and Norwich v Sheff Wed.

Brighton win and both teams score

Three of the last five head-to-heads between Albion and the Tricky Trees have ended in the south coast side winning, but also conceding.

Although Chris Hughton’s side do boast a decent defensive record, there’s a fit-again Britt Assombalonga to contend with among visiting ranks, so backing Brighton at a terrific 13/4 price for victory but with both teams on target makes sense.

Lewis Dunk scores anytime

Forest haven’t kept a clean sheet so far this term, and sealed just two in 10 shut-outs against the Seagulls. A surprise source of goals in recent games between the two has been centre back Dunk, with a couple in the previous three.
