I've said it a lot this weekend, but this feels like another big game in the Championship, we've got both ends of the table in action, with big points going to the winners. In this one, relegation threatened Huddersfield are the home side, and they host Hull, a team on the edge of the playoffs.
Huddersfield Form GuideHuddersfield finally have their new manager, with Andre Breitenreiter taking charge of the club, his first task being to ensure they remain in the Championship this season. They've been going well recently under caretaker Jon Worthington, so he takes over with the side in a better place than many would have expected.
Huddersfield have won two of their last three games, enough to put them five points clear of the relegation zone, so it's a nice small gap they have at this stage. They won on Wendesday evening, beating Sunderland 1-0, and won 4-0 at home to Sheffield Wednesday in a big clash at the bottom. A defeat came in the middle, but it was a 5-3 loss at Southampton, so not too bad considering their form.
Hull City Form GuideIt's a tight battle at the top, with the playoff race really hotting up as part of that. Hull are part of the race, currently in 8th, but they're only outside on goal difference, with four teams all tied on 48 points, showing that every single point matters at the moment.
Hull have been going well with three wins and one defeat from their last four games. They won again on Tuesday night, with a 2-1 away success at Rotherham, going alongside wins against Millwall and Sunderland, their sole defeat came at home to Swansea City.
Match PredictionA big three points at stake, and I think we may see an upset here. Huddersfield are going well, come in on the back of two good results, and I am going to back them to get off to a winning start under their new boss, and take the three points here.
