Huddersfield Town will host Birmingham City at the John Smith's Stadium on Saturday (February 18) in the Championship.
The hosts have endured a near-abysmal campaign, finding themselves in the drop zone. Huddersfield lost 3-0 to Stoke City in their last game and have now appointed Neil Warnock as manager till the end of the season. The 74-year-old stepped out of retirement, tasked with securing safety for the Terriers. Huddersfield are 23rd in the league table with 28 points from 31 games.
Birmingham, meanwhile, have had mixed results this season but continue to push for a top-half finish. They began February in solid fashion, winning their first two games, but suffered a 2-0 defeat to Cardiff City in their last game, conceding a quickfire double in the last ten minutes.
The visitors are 18th in the standings with 38 points from 31 games.
