Here's another exciting fixture in the Championship. Huddersfield Town is in the 24th position from participating in two matches. They welcome Stoke City who are placed 12th from two games.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Huddersfield Town and Stoke City.

Huddersfield Town form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Championship game of the season here at The John Smith's Stadium. Last season these fans witnessed 13 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses from Huddersfield Town's 23 home games.

Huddersfield's previous game was also a home event, the loss 1-4 against Preston North End (in Carabao Cup). The striker Rhodes was named "man of the match" for Huddersfield Town with a rating of 7.13/10. Rhodes scored one goal.

A Championship defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Birmingham City.

This is expected to be a close game, with Huddersfield Town perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Huddersfield Town as a small favourite), we find 15 games. Huddersfield Town has won 8 of these, drawn 6 and lost 1.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Huddersfield Town as they are travelling to their away game against Norwich City in the Championship. That match is three days after this one.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Huddersfield Town at home in the league. 0 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Stoke City form and stats

Stoke City have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Championship were 7 victories, 6 draws and 10 defeats from 23 fixtures.

It's another away fixture for the visitors, as they travelled to Morecambe in their previous outing. The Carabao Cup fixture ended 0-0. Baker got a match rating of 8.3 in that game, top player of the team. Baker hit five key passes and had 19 successful passes (of 21 total).

Before that, Stoke secured a home win against Blackpool with the score 2-0.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Stoke City playing away and similar expectations, we found 12 relevant matches. Results were 3 Stoke City wins, 5 draws and 4 defeats.

A new game in only four days for Stoke City, the Championship home match versus Middlesbrough. Busy days.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Stoke City has managed 0 goals and let in 2 from 1 match.

Head 2 Head

Stoke City have avoided defeat in the last 5 matches (3-2-0) versus Huddersfield.
