David Prutton’s EFL score predictions – 6th December

Sky Sports pundit David Prutton has given his predictions for some Football League fixtures.

The former Nottingham Forest, Southampton, Leeds, Swindon, Sheffield Wednesday and England U21 footballer who currently works as a presenter, pundit and commentator has given score predictions on twelve of the fixtures are from the Championship and one each from League One and League Two.

After looking at majority of his predictions, it’s found that he’s rather accurate and that if you put the scores he’s gone with into a table, it is very similar to the current standings. See what he went with below and on the next few pages…

MILLWALL v NOTT’M FOREST

The score David Prutton has predicted for this game is: 1-1

He said on Sky Sports’ website: “I was down at Millwall’s training ground with Gary Rowett this week, seeing what he is doing to try and take the club to the next level in the Championship. He has had a solid start to life so far there.
“That defeat at home to Cardiff at the weekend for Nottingham Forest probably proved they don’t have quite enough for automatic promotion, but if they want to finish top six they need to be getting results in games such as this. I fancy a draw here, though.”

 

HUDDERSFIELD v LEEDS

The score David Prutton has predicted for this game is: 1-2

He said on Sky Sports’ website: “Huddersfield are having a bit of a reality check under Danny Cowley at the minute, without a win in four and they had a bit of a thumping at Bristol City.

“Leeds are flying. Five wins on the spin and with daylight to Fulham in third. Can they hold on this season and get over the line? We’ll find out one way or another, but I don’t see their winning run ending on Saturday.”

 

CARDIFF v BARNSLEY

The score David Prutton has predicted for this game is: 2-1

He said on Sky Sports’ website: “Neil Harris will be delighted with Cardiff’s performances so far, including getting that first away win of the season at Nottingham Forest last time out. That was a huge result for them and he may be proving a few of the doubters wrong.

“Barnsley got their first win under Gerhard Struber and their first victory at all since the opening day of the season against Hull last weekend. That was massive for them, but they still have an awful lot of work to do to get out of the mess they find themselves in, and Cardiff should have too much for them.”

 

FULHAM v BRISTOL CITY

The score David Prutton has predicted for this game is: 2-2

He said on Sky Sports’ website: “Fulham are right in business now. Four wins on the spin, but they will need to keep winning to close the gap on Leeds and West Brom above them.

“Only one side in the Championship has lost fewer games than Bristol City this season, which shows how resilient they are under Lee Johnson. There will be goals at the Cottage, but I can’t split the sides.”

 

QPR v PRESTON

The score David Prutton has predicted for this game is: 2-2

He said on Sky Sports’ website: “Two sides who could really do with a win here. QPR at least ended a bit of a slump with a good draw at Derby last Saturday, but are still tumbling down the table.

“Preston may consider themselves unlucky in the way they lost against West Brom on Monday night, but they didn’t deserve to win either and now it’s three defeats on the spin. I think both sides would probably settle for a draw on Saturday.”
