Huddersfield Town form and stats

10 victories, 5 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Huddersfield Town have to build on here at The John Smith's Stadium in the Championship.

A good away victory last time out for Huddersfield Town, who won 1-0 against Hull City (placed 20th). Toffolo, defender, was given a rating of 7.84/10 in that game, top of the team. Toffolo scored one goal and won 6 of 9 duels.

Preceding that match was a defeat to AFC Bournemouth (0-3).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Huddersfield Town have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 15 matches with the results: Won six, drawn seven and lost two.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Huddersfield as they have a new game in only four days, a Championship match thankfully also at home. Queens Park Rangers are visiting.

The Huddersfield Town fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 27 in 19 matches. On the other hand, Huddersfield have conceded 20 goals.

Luton Town form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Championship travels is 8 wins, 5 draws and 7 defeats.

Preceding that match was the 2-2 draw at home vs Millwall.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Luton Town playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were five Luton Town wins, three draws and four defeats.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Nottingham Forest in just four days.
