Season ticket holders at The John Smith's Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Huddersfield Town languishing in the 20th position so far. The guesting Watford will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Huddersfield Town form and stats

With 2 wins, 2 draws and 13 defeats from their home games, Huddersfield Town, who have the fewest points (8) at home in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Huddersfield Town with their six defeats in a row. Not since the Wolverhampton Wanderers game, 52 days ago, have they avoided a loss. The Huddersfield Town manager J. Siewert might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

In their previous game, the manager J. Siewert led his Huddersfield Town to a defeat in the Premier League match away at Tottenham Hotspur. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at The John Smith's Stadium. Preceding that match was a defeat to Leicester City (1-4).

Huddersfield Town has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches: 8 goals from 17 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 28 goals have been conceded.

Watford form and stats

5 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses. That’s the product of Watford playing as the away team this season. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Javi Gracia, the Watford manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier League home defeat versus Arsenal with 0-1 on the scoreboard. That result followed a home victory 3-2 versus Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup.

A new game in only three days for Watford, the Premier League home match versus Southampton. Busy days.

Watford are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 24 away goals from 17 games. In the opposite end, Watford have conceded 27 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Watford - Huddersfield Town 3-0. Last nine meetings between the teams: Huddersfield Town won 4, Watford won 5 and 0 draws.
