Prediction: 2-1
Preston
Tuesday’s football game at John Smith’s Stadium pits together Huddersfield Town and Preston, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Terriers are undefeated in the previous four league matches, but they need to start winning on a regular basis if they are to secure yet another Championship survival. All Kyle Hudlin, Josh Ruffels, Kian Harratt, Jack Rudoni, Patrick Jones, and Oliver Turton should miss out with injuries for the home side.
The Lilywhites, on the other hand, have a chance to climb to the playoffs berth, but given their poor form in the English second tier, we are tempted to put our money on the relegation-threatened hosts. The midweek clash comes too early for forward Emil Riis Jakobsen, while midfielder Milutin Osmajic remains on the sidelines with a groin problem. When the two teams met in the FA Cup earlier this year Preston defeated Huddersfield 3-1, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.

Back in 1926 Huddersfield Town became the first English club to win three straight domestic trophies.

Huddersfield Town were founded in 1910 and just three years later they entered the Football League.
