But if you’re not sure who to back, no dramas. We’ve picked out some value selections to help guide you to profit.

We start with the only unbeaten side left in the Championship, Brighton and Hove Albion, who look a good shout at 33/50 to beat MK Dons at home on Saturday. The high-flying Seagulls were knocked off top spot in mid-week after another stalemate but should have enough to see off a Dons team that’s won only two of their last ten league games.

The only concern for Brighton backers comes in the fact that this fixture has finished a draw in the last five renewals.A repeat result this time round can be backed at a healthy 61/20, while both teams to score and the game to finish a draw is a huge 23/5.

While Albion would be happy to go another game undefeated, they in truth need to start picking up more wins. They’re not known this campaign for scoring an abundance of goals so Brighton to win 1-0 could be the option at 63/10.

Perhaps the biggest game of the weekend comes in the form of Hull against Middlesbrough, who meet at the KC Stadium in a top-of-the-table clash. The Tigers have won their last four and are unbeaten in nine while Boro have won their last three on the bounce. This is bound to be a tight affair between a set of promotion hopefuls that have been in fine nick of late.

There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 10 of Hull’s last 11 Championship games and they seem to have more momentum than Boro boys right now, so consider backing Hull to win and under 2.5 goals scored in the game at 17/5 with Marathonbet.

In League One, Wigan are undefeated in nine and visit fellow high-flyers Bury – a side that sits one place below the Latics in sixth. Bury haven’t beaten Wigan since 2001 – a record that stretches over four games – but did manage to nick a draw the last time they hosted Wigan at Gigg Lane. A draw here again looks entirely possible and can bebacked at 13/5 with Marathonbet.

If you’re feeling lucky and would appreciate some extra wonga for Christmas, back Bury and Brighton to draw and Hull to win with under 2.5 goals scored at a huge 63/1 with Marathonbet.
