Huddersfield Town will face Hull City at the John Smith's Stadium on Saturday in another round of the 2023-24 EFL Championship campaign.
The home side have had their struggles in the league this season but remain hopeful of avoiding the drop. They beat Sunderland 1-0 in their last match with Matthew Pearson scoring the sole goal of the game in the first half to extend his side's unbeaten run against the Black Cats.
Huddersfield Town have picked up 34 points from 32 games so far this season and now sit 20th in the league table. They are five points above Queens Park Rangers in the first relegation spot and will be looking to widen that gap even further this weekend.
After a slow start to the year, Hull City have found good form of late and are once again pushing for playoff football. They picked up a 2-1 comeback win over last-placed Rotherham United, with Jaden Philogene-Bidace scoring a stunning equalizer before new signing Noah Ohio scored the winner 15 minutes from normal time.
The visitors sit eighth in the table with 48 points and will be looking to build on their latest results on Saturday.
