Huddersfield Town vs Bristol City Prediction

Bristol City started the campaign impressively, winning their first five league matches to soar to the top of the table.

They have, however, faltered in recent weeks and are currently on a five-game winless run that has seen them fall down the table to 10th place.

Huddersfield Town, on the other hand, have been in fine form of late and have won four of their last seven games. That great run of form is expected to continue against a Bristol side that are severely depleted by injuries.

Prediction: Huddersfield Town 1-0 Bristol City
