Bookmaker Ratings prediction one: Full Time Result – Huddersfield to Win – 2.50
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two: Both Teams to Score – Yes – 1.95
Huddersfield to Win
Stoke have picked up some decent results on the road at times, but they don’t arrive with the same sort of momentum as the hosts, who not only come here in great shape but who are unbeaten at home against teams in the middle third of the division, winning three, drawing one. Combine this with a great points per game average at home than Stoke have on the road, along with a better goals for average, and the home win appeals at attractive odds.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
Huddersfield are useful at home, make no mistake about that. Only five Championship teams have won more home games than the Terriers, though clean sheets haven’t exactly been their specialty of late. Both teams have found the net in each of the last four matches at Kirklees Stadium. Both teams have also scored in four of Stoke’s last five on the road.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Hoffenheim vs Dortmund
It’s been a pleasing few weeks for Huddersfield followers, who’ve watched their team pick up a string of excellent results, which have left the Terriers in the favourable league position of sixth, inside the coveted play-off places.
Carlos Corberán’s men come into this fixture having shown a little bit of everything last time out, especially attacking potency, as they fired off 19 shots and scored four goals on the road to Reading. Moreover, the hosts have been very tough to beat at home for several months, losing just one of their last ten at Kirklees. Four clean sheets during that time is pleasing, as is the fact that they’ve conceded more than once on just three occasions.
Stoke City appeared to have turned a corner when they recorded back-to-back victories earlier this month, though they’ve been unable to kick on, first losing to Fulham, then to Coventry. Such results mean that confidence in the away dressing room isn’t likely to be as high as it was. Then again, both of their recent defeats came via the narrowest of margins, so we shouldn’t be too harsh.
The visitors may also gain confidence from a collection of away wins in recent times, beating the likes of Blackpool, Luton, QPR and Hull on the road since November.
Safe Bet
If you want to play this one ‘safe’, then take Huddersfield on the Draw No Bet market. As touched on above, the Terriers are unbeaten at home against middle-eight teams, winning three and drawing one against such opposition.
