Huddersfield Town Preview – Can the Terriers extend unbeaten home run?
Huddersfield Town have been one of the surprise packages in the Championship this season. Tipped by many to struggle before a ball was kicked, Town have proved their doubters wrong so far. Huddersfield have taken 25 points from 17 league games.
Overall, Carlos Corberan’s men have won seven, lost six and drawn four, scoring 21 and shipping 20. They have been excellent at home of late, taking ten points from the last 12 on offer at the John Smith’s since losing to Nottingham Forest in mid-September.
Before the break, Huddersfield fell to a gut-wrenching defeat to Cardiff City in Wales. They should have been out of sight, but two late Kieffer Moore goals gave the Bluebirds their first win since 12th September. Can Huddersfield hit back with a victory here?
West Bromwich Albion Preview – Baggies to bounce back with much-needed away win?
West Bromwich Albion are still one of the title favourites despite a patchy run of form of late. The Baggies head into this one having picked up just three wins in seven, losing to Stoke City, Swansea City and Fulham along the way.
After a 1-0 home win over Hull City, Albion failed to beat Middlesbrough at The Hawthorns last time out, drawing 1-1. They have been poor on the road of late, too. Since a thumping 4-0 win in Cardiff, Valerien Ismael’s men have suffered three straight away defeats in the Championship.

Huddersfield Town vs West Bromwich Albion Betting Advice
Huddersfield picked up a narrow home victory over West Brom when the duo last met. Chris Willock opened the scoring early on, and Emile Smith Rowe hit the winner four minutes from time. However, the Baggies won 4-2 in the meeting at The Hawthorns earlier in the season. That remains their only league success over the Terriers in five.
Key Facts – Huddersfield Town vs West Bromwich Albion Betting Tip
- Huddersfield have taken ten points from their last four home matches
- West Brom have lost three on the bounce away from home
- The Baggies have won only one of the previous five league meetings
Huddersfield have been excellent at home of late, while West Brom have suffered three successive away losses, but we fancy the Baggies to leave Yorkshire with maximum points. The away win and under 2.5 goals is nicely priced at 13/5.
Karlan Grant has been in stunning form of late, scoring an impressive seven goals in his last nine outings for Albion. Grant is available at 2/1 to score anytime in this one.
