League Championship Results 4/2 & 4/4

Let's see how last week's predictions turned out for the Championship:

Middlesbrough 3 Leicester 3
Predicted Boro to win 2-1:  -10 pts

Reading 2 Portsmouth 0
Predicted Reading 2-1:  +10 pts

Leeds 4 Nottingham 1
Predicted a 2-2 draw.  Nottingham's lost point could cost them a playoff spot:  -10 pts.

Coventry 2 Watford 0
Pretty impressive result for Coventry.  Watford is the highest scoring road team in the league.  Predicted a 2-1 win for Watford:  -10 pts.

Burnley 1 Ipswich 2
Predicted a 1-1 draw:  -10 pts.

Hull 0 Millwall 1
Predicted a 0-0 draw.  This is a big win for Millwall.  The two points they gain will put them into the playoffs in my next projection:  -10 pts for the prediction.

Cardiff 4 Derby 1
Predicted Cardiff 2-1:  +10 pts

Bristol 1 Doncaster 0
Predicted a 2-2 draw:  -10 pts.

Norwich 6 Scunthorpe 0
The Canaries beat up on the worst team in the league.  Predicted a 2-1 victory for Norwich:  +10 pts

Preston 2 Swansea 1
The opposite of my prediction:  -10 pts

Crystal Palace 2 Barnsley 1
This is exaclty what I predicted:  +30 pts.

QPR 3 Sheffield 0
Predicted a 2-0 victory for the Rangers:  +10 pts.

Final result:  0 pts so basically broke even.  Scored +15 two weeks ago so still ahead overall.

Here is a quick prediction for the April 5th match between Reading and Preston which was rescheduled due to Reading's FA Cup schedule:

Reading 2 Preston 1

Will be back later this week with an updated projection for the table.
