Our prediction for this Championship match:
QPR and Huddersfield Town face each other in a highly-anticipated clash at Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium. The Hoops have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both Bristol City and Wycombe in the previous two league fixtures, and, no doubt, they are high on spirits ahead of the visit of Huddersfield. It has to be noted that the capital club recorded four wins in the previous five home games in the Championship.
The Terriers, on the other hand, suffered yet another dip in form, with the team failing to win the previous four league fixtures, and given their difficulties in front of goal, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Queens Park Rangers. The likes of Amos, Carroll, and Owens are injured for the hosts, while Aarons, Elphick, Grant, Koroma, Schindler, Toffolo, and Ward are unlikely to feature for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Tom Carroll):
Tom Carroll is a professional English footballer who plays for Swansea City as a midfielder. The 177-cm tall is a product of Tottenham football academy and it has to be noted that he made 27 appearances for Spurs at senior level, scoring one goal. He found the net in a 3-0 win over Norwich City in the 2015/2016 season.
After ending his loan spells with the likes of Leyton Orient, Derby County and Queens Park Rangers, Tom Carroll signed a permanent deal with the Swans in the winter of 2017. Tom Carroll has 17 caps for England U21 team, but he has yet to make his debut for the senior team.
His main position is central midfield, but he is capable of playing as both left and right midfielder as well. Tom Carroll’s preferred foot is left and his contract with the Welsh outfit should expire on June 30, 2020.
Highlighted Team (Huddersfield):
Back in 1926 Huddersfield Town became the first English club to win three straight domestic trophies. Since 1908 the Terriers were playing at Leeds Road, but in 1994 John Smith’s Stadium became home of Huddersfield Town. 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.
