Free football tips, best bets and analysis for Nottingham Forest v Huddersfield and Bristol City v Sheffield Wednesday in the Sky Bet Championship on Sunday.

Nottingham Forest v Huddersfield

Sky Sports Football & Main Event, 2.15pm Sunday

Best bet

Nottingham Forest to win & under 3.5 goals
1pt 9-5 Betway, BoyleSports, Coral

Team news

Nottingham Forest
Ben Watson is likely to return to the starting 11 and Samba Sow could be involved after a full week of training. Adama Diakhaby is ineligible to play against his parent club.

Huddersfield
Fraizer Campbell and Steve Mounie could return after missing the Wigan defeat. Emile Smith Rowe and Juninho Bacuna should also be fit but Tommy Elphick remains sidelined.

Match preview

Nottingham Forest conceded a late equaliser at Sheffield Wednesday last weekend, extending their lean run to one win in seven games, but the playoff hopefuls should see off Huddersfield at the City Ground.

Forest remain a decent side at this level, beating Brentford and Leeds and drawing at West Brom in January and February, and they could be boosted by the return of influential midfielder Samba Sow.

Huddersfield are in serious relegation trouble, losing 2-0 at home to Wigan last time out, and they may well slip to an 11th away defeat of the campaign by the Trent.


Bristol City v Sheffield Wednesday

Sky Sports Football & Main Event, midday Sunday

Best bet

Draw
1pt 23-10 general

Team news

Bristol City
Pedro Pereira (thigh) is out for four weeks. Adam Nagy, Andreas Weimann and Nahki Wells should be available.

Sheffield Wednesday
Josh Windass (thigh) is a doubt. Steven Fletcher, Fernando Forestieri, Morgan Fox, Sam Winnall and Sam Hutchinson, all set to leave the club next week, are unlikely to be involved.

Match preview

Sheffield Wednesday confirmed this week that five senior players will be leaving the club next week but Garry Monk's depleted Owls could pick up a point at out-of-sorts Bristol City.

The Robins were well beaten by Blackburn on their return to action and their playoff hopes are on the wane after picking up just two points from their last six matches.

They have scored just four goals in those six games and a tight, low-scoring clash with Wednesday, who drew 1-1 with Nottingham Forest last weekend, looks likely.
