THE PREDICTION
League leaders Norwich were stunned on Good Friday after a last gasp equaliser from Preston saw the Canries held to a second successive draw, after having previously winning their last nine Championship matches. The gap between them and second-placed Watford currently stands at just three points, which makes this an important game vs Huddersfield. The Terriers proved their credentials against Brentford in their most recent league match, holding the high-flying Bees to a draw to extend their own unbeaten run to five games. Whilst the visitors will make it difficult for Norwich to break them down, the home side are expected to approach this match with a high intensity following the frustration of conceding such a late goal at Deepdale. Striker Teemu Pukki missed a number of opportunities in that contest and it would be a surprise if the Finnish international star was to be so wasteful again in this match. Providing Norwich show that clinical edge in front of goal that they are capable of, then the hosts should pick up an important three points here.
