West Ham v Stoke City - West Ham to win
West Ham have hit a bit of form and in Demba Ba they seem to have found a top class goalscorer. Stoke are strong at home but I can see them getting dragged into the relegation scrap due to their negative style of play.
Leeds United v Doncaster - Leeds to win
Leeds are in the promotin hunt while Doncaster are sliding down the table fast. Should be an easy home win.
Scunthorpe v Swansea - Swansea to win
Scunthorpe quite simply are not good enough for the division and will be relegated even if they spring the odd surprise result. Swansea have been impressive and have enough goalscorers in their team to see off Scunthorpe.
Colchester v Southampton - Southampton to win
This is a tricky one but with the players they have I expect Southampton to go on a winning run to push for one of the automatic promotion spots.
Sheffield Wednesday v Plymouth - Sheffield Wednesday to win
Sheffield Wednesday have been one of the biggest underacheivers of the season but Plymouth are in even more trouble so this should be a home banker.
Peterborough v Exeter - Peterborough to win
Peterborough get goals and although they tend to concede as well I still expect them to beat Exeter who have dipped in form.
Post Match Analysis
4 out of 6 of this week's tips came in but unfortunately Plymouth sprung a surprise with a 4-2 away win against Sheffield Wednesday who continue to struggle to find form. Scunthorpe got a great win against Swansea but I still stick to my earlier point that regardless of the result today they will still be in the bottom three come the end of the season.
On the plus note the West Ham tip came in with Demba Ba scoring the first goal while Leeds eventually cruised to a 5-2 win over Doncaster. Southampton got a good away win at Colchester while free scoring Peterborough even managed to keep a clean sheet as they eased to a 3-0 win over Exeter.
Not too bad for week one but must improve on the 60% ratio of successful tips that we saw this week.
