Huddersfield Town form and stats

With 2 wins, 2 draws and 12 defeats from their home games, Huddersfield Town, who have the fewest points (8) at home in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. It's trouble wherever Huddersfield Town are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now. They really need to get back to winning ways.

The fans are hoping that Huddersfield Town will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Premier League game against Crystal Palace. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting West Ham United (3-4).

The lack of attacking qualities in Huddersfield Town means that they have only scored 7 goals in 16 home games, less than half a goal per match. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 24 goals have been conceded.
