Huddersfield vs Stoke City Predictions

• Both teams have scored in Huddersfield’s last four home matches
• Stoke have scored in nine of their last 11 away fixtures
• The Terriers have only lost three home league fixtures

Huddersfield’s promotion push

After a pretty poor start to the campaign, Huddersfield have improved dramatically of late and have not suffered a defeat in any competition since a 2-1 reverse to Middlesbrough at the end of November.

They are still conceding far too many goals for Carlos Corberán’s liking though, keeping just two clean sheets in their last eleven games, with both teams scoring in seven of those fixtures.

The Terriers have been hard to beat on home soil though, losing only to teams currently in the top eight and picking up seven wins from 13 outings.

Stoke are too inconsistent

Every time you think Stoke have turned a corner, they throw in another poor performance and result, such as Tuesday’s 1-0 loss at Coventry.

Michael O’Neill’s side have actually kept four clean sheets in their last six away games, but they will find it hard to stop a free-scoring Huddersfield side, while three of those shut-outs were against teams in the bottom half.

Both teams have netted in half of their last six fixtures, as they have in half of their 14 matches on their travels.

I think this will be a tight game, but predict both teams will score. I also think Huddersfield could get the win, so select 2-1 to the hosts as a correct score prediction.
