Huddersfield are high on confidence after demolishing Port Vale 5-0 on Boxing Day, a performance that reflected their strong attacking numbers this season (3.00 GPG at home). Given Northampton's poor display in a 5-1 loss to Burton, we predict an easy 3-1 home win. Huddersfield's expected goals average at home sits at 2.17, showing that recent high-scoring displays are not accidental. The Terriers have also seen BTTS in 80% of their league matches, highlighting their open style of play. Despite missing Alves, Evans, Kane, McGuane, Redmond, and Whatmough, they handled those absences impressively in the recent victory.
Northampton, meanwhile, must regroup after the heavy Boxing Day defeat to Burton, a result that exposed their defensive issues—especially away, where they concede 2.50 goals per game. Still, the Cobblers remain dangerous going forward, scoring in every league match so far and posting 1.70 goals per game overall. Their away xGA of 2.04 continues to be a major concern. The visitors remain without Joe Wormleighton and Liam Shaw, who also missed the Burton loss.
Given Huddersfield's fine home record and momentum from the 5-0 Boxing Day win, Home Win is our main betting tip for this League One matchup, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (both teams average above 3.3 total match goals and score consistently)
This League 1 match will be played on Monday 29 December 2025 at 19:45.
