Today, 3 April, Round 40 of the 2025/26 English Championship takes place. With the relegation battle and the promotion race hitting a critical stage of the season, the matches featured are Norwich vs Portsmouth, Oxford vs Hull, Birmingham vs Blackburn, Coventry vs Derby.

The matches taking place on 3 April is as follows:

Norwich vs Portsmouth
Oxford vs Hull
Birmingham vs Blackburn
Coventry vs Derby

Norwich kept five clean sheets in their last 10 matches and have won seven of their last eight home games. They host Portsmouth, who have lost five and drawn one of their last six games. Pompey average one goal a match and have been goalless in four of their last 10 outings.

Oxford have just two wins in their last nine matches at home, scoring just four goals and being goalless six times. Hull have won 8 of 11 matches on the road and have kept four clean sheets in their last eight matches, so I can’t see Oxford finding the net.

Blackburn has restricted their opponents to 1 goal or less in 7 of their last 10 matches, so their defence is strong. Birmingham have scored just 8 goals in their last 10 matches, so they’re worth backing to score under 2 goals in this match.

Coventry are 9 points clear at the top of the table and have scored 18 goals in their last 8 matches. They host Derby, who have conceded 7 goals in their last 4 matches on the road while scoring just 3 times.

I am using Sportingbet SA as our accumulator option today.

Portsmouth Score Under 1.5 goals - 1.29
Oxford Score Under 1.5 goals - 1.46
Birmingham Score Under 1.5 goals - 1.66
Coventry Score Over 1.5 goals - 1.62

The four together as an accumulator will pay 5.06. A R50 stake will see you win R261.37.
