Prutton's Championship predictions

Who is David Prutton tipping for victory in the Sky Bet Championship in the midweek round of games? Find out here... Derby vs Hull, Tuesday 7.45pm - Live on Sky Sports Football

A weekend without a game will probably have done Derby some good with their thin squad and the relentless schedule of late. They battled again for so long at Huddersfield last Wednesday night but just came unstuck at the end with the 10 men.

Hull's winning run came to an abrupt end at home to Preston on Saturday. It is important they bounce back now to keep the positive mood going with the new ownership and management. I can't see them losing here, but I can't see them winning either.

Prutton predicts: 1-1 (Sky Bet odds)

Fulham gave a decent account of themselves at Manchester City in the FA Cup on Saturday, but they will be happy they can fully turn their attention to getting back into the Premier League now.

Millwall are drifting along a little, with their most recent performance against Preston lacking a bit of intensity. If they are to make anything of this season they need to go on a run, but they lack consistency. I do not really see anything but a home win here.

Prutton predicts: 2-0 (Sky Bet odds)

Blackburn missed a big opportunity at the weekend to really nail down their top-two credentials, but fell to a frustrating defeat at Swansea.

Nottingham Forest enjoyed another fantastic FA Cup day against Leicester. If they can take that performance and build on it, then anything is possible, starting with a win at Ewood Park.

Prutton predicts: 1-2 (Sky Bet odds)

It has been a great start to life at Preston for Ryan Lowe, as they enjoyed another battling win at the weekend. It would have been even better had Ben Whiteman converted that penalty at
