David Prutton's EFL predictions: Newcastle to nick victory

David Prutton

David Prutton returns with his Sky Bet EFL predictions ahead of more big games in the Sky Bet Championship.

The Sky Sports cameras are covering the game at Huddersfield - read on to see how Prutton sees the games going....

Huddersfield v Norwich (Wednesday from 7.30pm, live on Sky Sports 1)

I'll be there for this one. We've come to expect so much from Huddersfield, so to see their last two results have been very surprising. I think they'll put it right on Wednesday.

David Wagner comes across as a jovial character, but make no mistake, he's an ambitious fella. He'd have been cracking the whip in the last few days. Norwich have only won four games away all season and it's hard to fancy them here, where they'd need to dig out a result. They'll be focusing on next season.

PRUTTON PREDICTS: 2-1 (Sky Bet odds: 9/1)

Newcastle v Burton (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

We've seen Newcastle struggle against teams down the bottom: Wolves, Blackburn and QPR when they were down there. I just can't get Newcastle right. When I go draw, they win, when I go win, they draw. My head's all over the place, but I'm going to side with a narrow home win with Dwight Gayle getting the winner.

PRUTTON PREDICTS: 1-0 (Sky Bet odds: 6/1)
