This week's Sporting Life Accumulator involves five teams from the Sky Bet Championship, enhanced to 50/1 with the title sponsors.
Both BARNSLEY and Luton ended last season strongly to avoid relegation. They shared a draw at Kenilworth Road during the run-in but the Tykes were dominant throughout. They're backed to put in a similar performance on home soil, where they've kept five straight clean sheets since football returned.
BRISTOL CITY showed enough during Dean Holden's five-match caretaker spell to earn him the full-time job this summer. A scratchy Carabao Cup win at MK Dons last weekend was a first competitive game since March 7 for Sky Bet League One winners Coventry, following the curtailment of their season.
CARDIFF narrowly missed out to Fulham in last season's play-off semi-finals, and should be a strong contender again. Sheffield Wednesday ended last term in dreadful form, begin this one on -12 points and have seen a raft of players leave over the summer in an effort to cut costs.
New manager Veljko Paunovic only took his first training session on Tuesday, and will now take Reading into a tricky away game first up. DERBY vastly improved in the second half of Phillip Cocu's first campaign as boss, an upturn triggered by the arrival of former England captain Wayne Rooney as player-coach.
NORWICH seemed to give up after lockdown, with relegation already all but a certainty. They could hardly wish for a better opponent as they look to end a 12-game losing streak. Carlos Corberan started life as Huddersfield boss with a Carabao Cup defeat by Rochdale - he has a lot to do to turn around a club that has struggled for wins since early 2018.
