Huddersfield vs Stoke: Top free betting tips

An exciting Championship clash is on the horizon on Matchday 7 as Huddersfield Town prepares to host Stoke City at The John Smith's Stadium. Huddersfield is riding high on a recent 2-0 victory over Rotherham United, aiming to build on their success. Meanwhile, Stoke City is looking to bounce back after a loss to Norwich City and improve their defensive stability.

Match result prediction: Huddersfield to win

The Terriers have registered successive wins against Rotherham and West Brom. On the other hand, the Potters arrive after accumulating successive defeats against Norwich and Preston. The last match at John Smith's Stadium also finished in favour of the home side and we are backing Huddersfield, the team in form to claim the three points on offer and continue their assault on the points table.

Total goals prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Neither Huddersfield nor Stoke can be relied upon to score freely. The Terries have 6 strikes to their name in as many Championship outings while the Potters have one fewer from the same number of games. As they meet, we do not anticipate a high-scoring affair and expect Under 2.5 goals during the 90 minutes of regulation action.

Correct score prediction: 2-0 to Huddersfield

Stoke's away defeat to Norwich saw a 1-0 scoreline while their home dismantling by Preston read 2-0. Huddersfield will like these scorelines as they have scored at least twice in their last two matches, home and away. As they face off during the midweek, we expect more of the same as the Terriers claim a 2-0 victory at Stoke's expense.

Huddersfield vs Stoke: Form, recent games, and news

Huddersfield Town preview

The Terriers enter this fixture with a boost in confidence following their impressive 2-0 victory against Rotherham United. In that game, they displayed their attacking prowess with 15 attempts at goal, resulting in goals from Josh Koroma and Sorba Thomas.

However, Huddersfield's Achilles' heel has been their defence, as they have conceded in each of their last six matches, letting in a total of 13 goals. Manager Neil Warnock will be without Lee Nicholls due to a shoulder injury and Yuta Nakayama, who is recovering from an Achilles tendon rupture.

Stoke City preview

Stoke City is seeking redemption after a recent setback against Norwich City in the Championship. Despite having 56% possession and 13 attempts at goal in that match, they only managed one goal scored by Jack Stacey, while their defence continues to be a concern.

Stoke City has conceded in five of their last six matches, allowing a total of seven goals. However, the good news for Stoke is that they have a fully fit squad, with no injury worries for manager Alex Neil.
