Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Wrexham will be aiming to build on back-to-back wins over Rotherham United and Northampton Town when they take on Huddersfield Town on Matchday 13. The Red Dragons are eyeing their fourth consecutive win in all competitions, but it has to be noted that they were more than fortunate not to suffer a loss to Rotherham United at the weekend.
The Terriers, on the other hand, defeated Bristol Rovers at home in their last league match, but given their difficulties on the road, we are going to bet on Wrexham this time out. It has to be noted that Huddersfield Town have suffered five defeats in the previous six away games in all competitions. Midfielder Lasse Sorensen is rated doubtful for the away team after limping off with injury against the Pirates, with Oliver Turton being ready to step up. There are no other fresh selection worries in the away team.
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.
