National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Huddersfield Town or Barnsley that keep their silverware dream alive.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Huddersfield Town form and stats

Huddersfield participated in FA Cup the last season, where they reached the 3rd round.

Huddersfield Town have played 15 Championship games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 8-4-3 (wins-draws-losses).

A nice win for Huddersfield Town last time playing, versus Derby County. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-0 with Holmes and Rhodes scoring for the victors. Midfield player O'Brien got a match rating of 7.8 in that game, the max score being 10. O'Brien hit two key passes and had 58 successful passes (of 65 total).

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Stoke City that ended 1-1.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Huddersfield as they are travelling to their away game against Preston North End in the Championship. That match is four days after this one.

The Huddersfield Town fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 22 in 15 matches. On the other hand, Huddersfield Town have conceded 16 goals.

Barnsley form and stats

Barnsley's mission in FA Cup last season failed in the 5th round.

Barnsley have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Championship, after 0-4-10 (14 played).

The attacking players of Barnsley have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 273 minutes.

Barnsley failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Cardiff City that ended with defeat 0-1. Quina got a match rating of 7.31 in that game, top player of the team. Quina dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 23 successful passes (of 27 total).

A 0-1 loss hosting AFC Bournemouth before that.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Barnsley manager Asbaghi as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Luton Town.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Barnsley as they have only managed to score 9 times from 14 away games in the league. Barnsley have conceded 26 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between these contenders: Huddersfield Town won four, Barnsley were winners in four and we saw two draws. six games with more than 2,5 goals, four matches with two goals or less.
