Seeking an end to their six-match winless run, Birmingham City welcome Huddersfield Town to St Andrew's on Tuesday evening.
While Blues last tasted success in late August, their visitors have gone five games unbeaten to inch up the Championship table.
We say: Birmingham City 1-0 Huddersfield Town
Neither side has impressed in the final third this season, both averaging around a goal per game, so a single strike could separate them on Tuesday. Despite their injury crisis, Birmingham City can capitalise on fine home form to pick up an overdue victory; consigning Darren Moore to his first loss as Huddersfield manager.

Both sitting inside the Championship's top six, Ipswich Town and Hull City clash at Portman Road on Tuesday evening.
After 1-1 draws at the weekend, the two sides are separated by six points in the standings, having both gone unbeaten throughout September.
We say: Ipswich Town 2-2 Hull City
As both teams certainly know where the net is - averaging over 1.5 goals per game - there could be plenty of penalty-box action at Portman Road. Entertainment is almost guaranteed, but it may be that a share of the spoils sees either side preserve their unbeaten run.

Middlesbrough vs. Cardiff (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Seeking to continue their recent revival with a fourth win on the bounce in all competitions, Middlesbrough host fellow Championship form side Cardiff City at the Riverside Stadium on Tuesday night.
Michael Carrick's men overcame Watford 3-2 in their Saturday showdown, while the visitors rose into the top six of the table owing to a 2-0 home success over Rotherham United.
We say: Middlesbrough 2-2 Cardiff City
Middlesbrough's newfound mettle will be put to the test and then some on Tuesday night, and Carrick's backline are unlikely to walk away unscathed, especially with their ongoing crisis on the left-hand side.
However, Cardiff have also been prone to defensive collapses on rival turf this season, and an entertaining draw could prolong the feel-good factor around the Riverside Stadium.

Newly-promoted Plymouth Argyle will look to continue their ascent up the Championship when they welcome Millwall to Home Park on Tuesday.
The visitors suffered a crushing defeat on home soil at the weekend and must bounce back to avoid being sucked closer to danger.
We say: Plymouth Argyle 2-0 Millwall
With very little separating the sides in the table, home form could be a decisive factor in determining the outcome here.
Plymouth have shown fine form at home with three big wins so far this season, and are slight favourites to make that four.

Stoke City welcome Southampton to the Bet365 Stadium in a Championship clash on Tuesday night.
In a game that was a Premier League fixture as recently as 2018, both sides will enter it a little underwhelmed at their respective starts to the season.
We say: Stoke City 1-1 Southampton
Despite both bouncing back from adversity with wins at the weekend, the two could cancel each other out here in a clash that is tough to call on paper.
Southampton have also not enjoyed much success against Stoke recently, winning just one of their last seven meetings, and that run could well be extended here.

West Bromwich Albion welcome early-season basement boys Sheffield Wednesday to The Hawthorns in the Championship on Tuesday night.
The two sides could not possibly enter the fixture in more polar opposing spirits, with Wednesday in disarray on and off the pitch, and West Brom in dreamland after an astonishing weekend performance.
We say: West Bromwich Albion 2-0 Sheffield Wednesday
After proving their worth in a phenomenal 4-0 win at the weekend over promotion-chasers Preston, West Brom should have too much on paper for the visitors here.
Sheffield Wednesday desperately need to arrest the dreadful start they have made to the season, but may find it tough against a side high on confidence.
