Sunday's Championship predictions including Swansea City vs. Leeds United

Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Sunday's Championship matches - Stoke vs. Birmingham and Swansea vs. Leeds.

Stoke City square off against Birmingham City on Sunday afternoon knowing that victory will take them above their opponents in the Championship standings.

While Blues currently occupy 17th position, a 10-match winless streak has left the West Midlands outfit just four points above the relegation zone.

We say: Stoke City 2-1 Birmingham City


Although both clubs have struggled since the resumption, we feel that Stoke are in the best position to get back on track. However, with the stakes so high, expect this encounter to be a tense affair right up until the final whistle.

Leeds United are now potentially within a couple of victories of automatic promotion from the Championship as they prepare for Sunday's visit to Swansea City.

The Whites regained top spot with a thumping win over Stoke City on Thursday, while Swansea also picked up a vital win in midweek to remain on course for the playoffs.

We say: Swansea City 1-1 Leeds United


Both teams have won back-to-back matches and have a clear target in mind heading into the final four rounds of fixtures. Leeds have not beat Swansea away from home since 1964 and we can see that run continuing this weekend.
