Christmas is here and football is ubiquitous. Leeds Utd may top the table, and have won 5 on the bounce, but the Model still gives Aston Villa the edge on Sunday, with a 42% chance of victory, and a forecast scoreline of 1-0 (11%) to the Villa.
Ipswich prop up the table now and are likley to do so going in to the New Year. In fact, the Model now gives them a 76% chance of relegation this season. They host Sheffield Utd this weekend, and the most likely scoreline is an away win to the Blades: 0-1 (17%).
The rest of our Championship forecasts are in the the table below:
