Are you wanting for some above-average dividend yields for your income portfolio?

If you are, then the three ASX 200 dividend stocks in this article could be worth considering.

Let's see why analysts rate them as buys and what they expect them to pay out in the near term:

Centuria Industrial REIT (ASX: CIP)

Centuria Industrial could be an ASX 200 dividend stock to buy according to analysts.

It is Australia's largest domestic pure play industrial property investment company with a portfolio of high-quality industrial assets situated in key metropolitan locations throughout Australia.

Centuria Industrial notes that its portfolio is overseen by a hands on, active manager and provides investors with income and an opportunity for capital growth from a pure play portfolio of high-quality Australian industrial assets.

UBS thinks investors should be buying its shares. This is due to its attractive valuation and the company's positive long term fundamentals.

In addition, the broker is forecasting some great yields in the near term. UBS expects Centuria Industrial to pay dividends per share of 16 cents in FY 2025 and then 17 cents in FY 2026. Based on the current Centuria Industrial share price of $2.82, this represents dividend yields of 5.7% and 6%, respectively.

UBS has a buy rating and $3.80 price target on its shares.

Coronado Global Resources Inc (ASX: CRN)

If you don't mind investing in the mining sector, then Coronado Global Resources could be another ASX 200 dividend stock to buy.

It is the largest pure play met coal producer, delivering total sales of 15.6Mt into global export markets in 2023.

Bell Potter sees significant value on offer with the coal miner's shares at current levels. Especially given the de-risking of its production profile. It notes that from "late CY24, CRN's production profile will de-risk with the introduction of 1.5-2.0Mtpa incremental saleable production from its less weather-affected and lower cost Mammoth Underground Project."

The broker believes this will support the payment of partially franked dividends of 10 cents per share in FY 2025 and then 8.6 cents per share in FY 2026. Based on its current share price of 76.5 cents, this equates to dividend yields of 13.1% and 11.2%, respectively.

Bell Potter currently has a buy rating and lofty $1.60 price target on its shares.

Eagers Automotive Ltd (ASX: APE)

Finally, Bell Potter also believes that Eagers Automotive could be an ASX 200 dividend stock to buy this month.

It is a leading auto retailer with over 250 locations across Australia and New Zealand. This includes all 19 of the top 20 best-selling car brands in Australia.

Bell Potter likes the company due partly to its belief that it could outperform consensus expectations with its second-half performance in FY 2024.

It expects this to support the payment of fully franked dividends of 66.5 cents per share in FY 2024 and then 73 cents per share in FY 2025. Based on its current share price of $11.84, this represents dividend yields of 5.6% and 6.2%, respectively.

Bell Potter currently has a buy rating and $13.00 price target on its shares.
