Ian Holloway's predictions: Newcastle or Norwich to win? Huddersfield to bounce back?

Ian Holloway is back with his Sky Bet EFL predictions

The Sky Bet EFL is back for some midweek action and Ian Holloway returns too with his predictions.

Newcastle v Norwich (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

These are two of the best teams in the Championship. Norwich are on a roll and Newcastle can beat anyone on their day, if anyone finishes above both of them I think they'll be automatically promoted.

Norwich played really well on the weekend and could have won by more, while Newcastle should have put Villa to bed but missed a few chances. 

Norwich will relish the challenge now they're top but I think Newcastle will edge it at home.

OLLIE PREDICTS: 2-1 (15/2 with Sky Bet)
