Prediction: 1-3
Leeds United
Huddersfield Town and Leeds United take on each other at John Smith’s Stadium in what is expected to be an interesting Championship game. The Terriers did well to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Hull City, with the team beating Watford on the road, but their Championship status is still in great danger. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be experienced forward Danny Ward, who scored a brace against the Hornets, while all Rhys Healey, Jaheim Headley, Josh Ruffels, and Oliver Turton remain in the treatment room.
The Whites, on the other hand, are eyeing their tenth consecutive league win. Leeds United rolled over Leicester City 3-1 in their last Championship game, with the team remaining in top two in the standings. Both Conor Roberts and Patrick Bamford are pushing for recalls to the starting XI after the duo got their names on the scoresheet against the Foxes, while all Sam Byram, Karl Darlow, Pascal Struijk, and Stuart Dallas remain in the treatment room. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Leeds look unstoppable at the moment.
