Huddersfield Town host Hull City in the English Championship on Sunday with both teams looking to find a spark for their campaign. Huddersfield have got plenty of joy in this fixture in recent times and should have the edge here.
It has been a difficult season for Huddersfield Town, who have claimed just two wins from 12 matches so far. Mark Fotheringham's men have spent much of the campaign around the relegation zone but there is still enough time to turn things around.
One thing Huddersfield Town can build on is a 3-3 draw at Luton Town in their previous Championship fixture. Despite constantly being let down by poor defending, they will take confidence from the fact that they led twice through a Carlton Morris own-goal and a Jordan Rhodes penalty before Ben Jackson salvaged a point with a late equaliser.
Another thing Huddersfield Town can build on is a 1-0 victory over Cardiff City in their previous home fixture. In fact, both their wins this season have come at the John Smith’s Stadium having also claimed a 3-1 victory over Stoke City.
Hull City have fared slightly better than Huddersfield Town this season as they hold a four-point gap over the bottom three. However, they are still way below their best with just four wins from 12 Championship matches so far.
One of those wins came in their midweek 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic to end a five-match losing run. They were made to come from behind with goals from Dimitris Pelkas and Oscar Estupinian earning them the win.
While Hull City will be keen to build on that result, their record on the road has not been impressive. Andrew Dawson’s men are winless away from home this season and are currently on a three-match losing run on their travels.
How the bookies view it
Huddersfield Town have the edge among the bookies and are priced at 7/5 by Unibet to claim the win. A victory for Hull City is valued at 11/5 by BoyleSports while a draw is set at odds of 9/4 by Sport Nation.
Recent head to head
Huddersfield Town are currently on a five match unbeaten run against Hull City, winning the last four. The Terriers did the double over Hull last season, claiming a 2-0 victory at the John Smith’s Stadium before winning 1-0 in the reverse fixture.
Players to watch
Things have not been particularly smooth for Huddersfield Town this season, but Jordan Rhodes could be worth keeping an eye on having scored three goals this season. The striker was also on target in the midweek draw at Luton Town and is priced at 12/5 by bet365 to find the net on Sunday.
Oscar Estupinian has been the one shining light for Hull City in a disappointing campaign having scored eight goals in 12 appearances. The striker is priced at 17/10 by Unibet to find the net on Sunday.
Anything else catch the eye?
Huddersfield Town and Hull City have not shown any kind of defensive solidity this season and given the attacking quality, both teams could be backed to score at 4/5 with bet365. There were over 3.5 goals in Huddersfield’s last outing and a repeat is valued at 14/5 with Unibet while over 2.5 goals is set at evens with Paddy Power.
Huddersfield have opened the scoring in two of their last three matches and could be backed to grab the first goal on Sunday at 20/21 with Coral.
