Huddersfield take on the visitors Bristol City in the round 29 match of English Championship. The match will be played on Tuesday, February 7th at John Smith's Stadium (Huddersfield).
Huddersfield Town have lowered performance dramatically. The team almost entered the Premier League last season, and this season they risk falling into League One. The problem lies more with the management than with the coaching staff. But 0-8 on aggregate in the last two rounds is too much for Huddersfield. The only stability is in defeats. The hosts have conceded enough goals recently and have only managed one win this year. However, the club is not completely hopeless on their home turf. Nonetheless, the gap to safety is only seven points. Or is it already seven points? Every round is turning into a certain final. But one needs to look at the calendar. And here, practically everyone who is fighting for the playoffs is playing. If Bristol City cannot be defeated, then within the framework of the Championship, we can already say goodbye to the "Terriers".

Theoretically, Bristol City can fight for the playoffs. In reality, the circle of contenders is already defined, and the visitors are not among them. The visitors may rise up to a one or two positions, but no more. The extremely unsuccessful start of the season is to blame. The defeat in the last round against Cardiff was the first since the end of February last year. "The Robins" do not perform well away from home, and the team of Pearson lacks class. There are many draws. The place that the team occupies is quite logical. A typical mid-table team of the championship without any claims to anything more. It's fortunate that they don't have to fight for survival.
The opponents are roughly equal in class. Moreover, "The Robins" are not perfect in defense. The "Terriers" can only hope for themselves, but most likely they will already be in League One, and under the new owner, the team will need to be rebuilt. In the last seven matches, the hosts have failed to score in four cases, but it is unlikely that Bristol City will be able to keep their goal intact on the road. We suppose that Huddersfield will not leave the field defeated with a shout-out.
Prediction for the match: Huddersfield to score over 1.0 goals.
