Tuesday night brings a full round of Championship football, and the pick of it is at the London Stadium, where West Ham and Wolves meet as two sides who came down from the Premier League together last season. Sheffield United host Bolton at Bramall Lane at the same time. The eight o’clock kick-offs bring Birmingham against Southampton and Stoke against Norwich.

Three of tonight’s four positions sit on the handicap lines, with one in the first-half goals market in Birmingham.

Monday Result

Monday’s single position landed. Arsenal’s 1-0 win at Villa Park kept the game inside the line and settled the FT Under 2.5 at 2.01.

West Ham United v Wolves (7:45pm UK)

The market makes West Ham favourites without much conviction: 2.00 the home win, 3.55 Wolves, 3.60 the draw. Full-time xG comes in at 1.89 for West Ham against 1.34 for Wolves, a 3.23 combined total, and the home side’s last ten return 2.05 goals scored per game against 1.29 conceded, with both teams scoring in seven of them. Wolves have been scoring at 1.29 a game on the road and conceding 1.54. Their timing is where it gets interesting: five of their goals across the recent sample landed inside the opening 15 minutes and another three in the final quarter-hour, with a long quiet stretch through the middle of the match.
