Huddersfield Town form and stats
4 victories, 1 draw and 3 defeats. That’s what Huddersfield Town have to build on here at The John Smith's Stadium in the Championship. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Huddersfield after consecutive victories at their own ground.
A nice win for Huddersfield last time playing, versus Queens Park Rangers. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-0 with Harry Toffolo and Josh Koroma scoring for the victors. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Cardiff City (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 have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 14 matches with the results: Won six, drawn three and lost five.
The manager C. Corberán Vallet will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to AFC Bournemouth in only four days.
Huddersfield are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 8 games. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 8 goals have been conceded.
Sheffield Wednesday form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Sheffield Wednesday so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-5 (win-draw-lose).
There might be some fixture complaints from Sheffield as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Championship match against Norwich City (1-2). A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Reading.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 18 similar matches played by Sheffield Wednesday in our archives, and the results are: six wins for Sheffield Wednesday, six draws and six defeats.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Barnsley in just four days.
