Our prediction for this Championship match:
After playing out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Luton Town on Tuesday evening, Huddersfield will look to record their third win of the season when they face Hull City at their John Smith’s Stadium. The Terriers have been struggling in the first half of the season, with the team sitting in the relegation zone ahead of Saturday’s clash, and, no doubt, they are desperate to get back on course. Midfielder David Kasumu is banned for the match, while both Tyreece Simpson and Matty Pearson should miss out with injuries.
The Tigers, on the other hand, proved their worth in a 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic. Hull City aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, and seeing that they will go for a win as well, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Andy Dawson can’t count on the likes of Vaughn Covil, Benjamin Tetteh, Brandon Fleming, and Billy Chadwick for the John Smith’s Stadium showdown.

Daniel Ward is a goalkeeper who was born on 22 June, 1993 in Wrexham, Wales. The 191-cm-tall shoot-stopper is a product of Wrexham Academy, but he did not make his senior debut for the club. After spending the 2010/2011 season at Tamworth, Danny Ward returned to Wrexham and on 30 January, 2012 he joined Liverpool for a fee of £100,000.
He made just two league appearances for the Anfield outfit and in 2015 he signed a loan deal with Morecambe. On 23 June he signed a new five-year deal with Liverpool, but he was soon sent on loan to Aberdeen. He played 21 games for the Scottish outfit and on 11 July, 2016 he signed a season-long deal with Championship team Huddersfield Town.
Danny Ward has 4 caps for Wales U21 team and he made his senior debut for the Dragons in a friendly against Northern Ireland on 24 March, 2016. Ward represented his homeland at the 2016 European Championship finals in France as he started the game against Slovakia.
Highlighted Team (Hull City):

Hull City are a professional football club that was founded back in 1904. The Tigers used to play their home games at Boothferry Park, but they moved to the KC Stadium in 2002. The stadium capacity is 24,450.
Hull impressed in the 2015/2016 Championship campaign and, as a result, they returned to the English Premier League. Hull City fans consider Leeds United their main rivals, but Sheffield United are regarded as Hull’s fierce rivals as well. Steve Bruce took over the reins at the club in 2012 and the experienced tactician helped the team book a place in the 2013/2014 FA Cup final, but Arsenal proved to be a big catch for the Tigers in the title decider.
Hull City finished the 2013/2014 Premier League campaign in 16th place in the standings to achieve their highest ever top flight finish. It has to be noted that Curtis Davies was named the team’s player of the year in the 2013/2014 season.
