Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-0
Barnsley
Huddersfield Town have been showing signs of improvement of late. Thanks to a goalless draw with Middlesbrough at their John Smith’s Stadium Huddersfield extended their unbeaten run in the Championship to five games and, no doubt, they are brimming with confidence ahead of Saturday’s football match against Barnsley. The Terriers have been impressive at the back of late, with the team keeping a clean sheet in previous two home fixtures and that is the main reason why home win should be considered.
The Tykes, on the other hand, failed to win previous 12 games in the league and it is no surprise they are seen as underdogs in the John Smith’s Stadium’s clash. In their last meeting in West Yorkshire in the Championship Huddersfield Town recorded a 2-1 win over Barnsley and we predict that the history is going to repeat itself.

Highlighted Player (Steve Mounié):
Steve Mounie is a Beninese footballer who plays for Huddersfield Town as a striker. Mounie is a product of Montpellier youth academy and, as a result, he was given a chance to prove his worth in the blue and orange shirt in Ligue 1 at senior level.
After scoring 14 goals in 37 appearances for la Paillade in the French elite division, the 190-cm-tall attacker moved to Huddersfield Town in 2017, but it has to be noted that he spent the 2015/2016 season at Nimes as a loan player. Steve Mounie signed a four-year deal with the Terriers and he made his competitive debut for the club on August 12, 2017, scoring a brace in a 3-0 win over Crystal Palace.
The attacker who was born in Parakou (Benin) on September 29, 1994 will represent the Benin national team at the 2019 Africa Cup of nations. Mounie scored his first ever goal for the national team in a 2-1 win over South Sudan in the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Highlighted Team (Barnsley):
Barnsley are an English club nicknamed the Tykes. The club was founded in 1887 and it has to be noted that they spend more seasons in the Championship than any other club in the history. The Tykes played in the Sheffield and District League from 1890, but in 1895 they were part of the Midland League. Barnsley play their home games at Oakwell, the stadium that was built in 1887.
The capacity of the stadium is 23,009 and it was opened back in 1888, just one year after the club’s foundation. The Tykes made it to the FA Cup final in 1910, but Newcastle United proved to be a big catch for the Oakwell outfit in the title game.
Nonetheless, Barnsley won the FA cup trophy in 1912 and that is considered the club’s biggest success. Barnsley defeated West Bromwich Albion in the two-legged tie (0-0, 1-0) to clinch the prestigious trophy for the first and only time in their history.
