Every EFL game is live on Sky Sports throughout the opening weekend. Wolves host Blackburn as 5/1 title favourites, but relegated teams historically struggle early; under 2.5 goals at Evens with Sky Bet is the bet. Bolton welcome Preston; newly-promoted teams often start with momentum, Bolton at 5/4 to win.

Millwall visit Bristol City; Millwall were impressive last season, and the away win at 17/10 is recommended. Derby travel to Charlton; John Eustace's teams start strongly, with Morris to score in a Derby away win at 7/2.

Middlesbrough face Lincoln; after strong underlying numbers, Boro are 5/2 for promotion and can start with a home win. Score predictions: Wolves 1-1 Blackburn, Bolton 2-1, Bristol City 1-2, Charlton 1-2, Middlesbrough 2-0.
