Our prediction for this Championship match:
Saturday’s football game at Ashton Gate Stadium pits together Bristol City and Huddersfield Town, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Robins aim to bounce back from a heavy 4-1 loss to Preston and you should know that they are eyeing their fourth consecutive win at home ground. All Robert Dickie, Gardner-Hickman, Kal Naismith, Sam Bell, Rob Atkinson, and Ayman Benarous are sidelined with injuries.
The Terriers, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-1 loss to Preston. Huddersfield Town are eager to escape the danger zone, but given their poor defensive display against the Lilywhites, we predict that the in-form hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. Kian Harratt remains on the sidelines through suspension, while all Jack Rudoni, Jonathan Hogg, Radinio Balker, Tom Lees, Yuta Nakayama, and Josh Ruffels are sidelined with injuries.

Highlighted Team (Huddersfield):
Back in 1926 Huddersfield Town became the first English club to win three straight domestic trophies.

The club play in the English second tier (Championship) and the colour of the their home kit is blue and white (stripes).
Huddersfield Town were founded in 1910 and just three years later they entered the Football League. In 1926 the Terriers won their last domestic trophy, but they did well finishing runners up in the FA Cup 1920. The club’s biggest rivals are Leeds United and it has to be noted that Huddersfield Town have better head-to-head record of the two teams.
Bradford City are considered Huddersfield’s local rivals as well, but there are small rivalries with Barnsley, Halifax Town, Manchester City and Oldham Athletic. The club’s chairman is Dean Hoyle.
