THE PREDICTION

Sheffield Wednesday manager Tony Pulis will have been furious at seeing his side let a 0-1 lead slip away to Norwich in the final ten minutes as his side ultimately fell to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of the Canaries. Here they look to bounce back in a Yorkshire derby away at Huddersfield. The Terriers made it two home wins in a row after a comfortable 2-0 victory over QPR last time out, but are suffering from injury problems in central defence, with Christopher Schindler, Richard Stearman and Tommy Elphick all absent for this game. With youngster Rarmani Edmonds-Greene set to start here in their absence, Pulis will no doubt instruct his players to target the inexperienced defender with an aerial bombardment expected. The Owls certainly have the firepower to take advantage of such a frailty and Sheffield Wednesday draw no bet, may well prove a wise play in this one.
