Stoke vs Huddersfield Prediction & Match Preview

• Stoke come into this on the back of a huge win at Hull City.
• Huddersfield claimed only two points in the previous five league games.
• Three of the Terriers’ previous five Championship matches ended with fewer than three goals scored.

Stoke City celebrated a precious victory on the road on Friday. They stunned playoffs hopefuls Hull City 2-0 at The MKM Stadium to go five points adrift of the relegation zone. Head coach Steven Schumacher can be particularly thrilled by the defensive display shown by his troops three days ago.

The fact that the Potters limited an in-form Hull City side to zero attempts on target in the 90 minutes of action away from home speaks volumes. Stoke City have a nice opportunity to back up this win and make another huge step towards securing the Championship survival on Monday. They host relegation rivals Huddersfield Town at bet365 Stadium.

The visitors extended their winless thread to five outings on Friday. The Terriers were completely outplayed by Coventry City, losing the home fixture 1-3 three days ago. Andre Breitenreiter’s men are third from bottom at the moment and they desperately need to shift their fortunes around in the final nine games of the season.

Stoke vs Huddersfield Head-to-head

The home court has played a big role in the recent H2H history between these rivals. None of their previous seven encounters ended in an away win.

The teams shared spoils in a 2-2 stalemate in the return match played in September last year at John Smith’s Stadium.

Each of the last three H2H affairs saw three or more goals scored.

Stoke vs Huddersfield Prediction

Everything points towards a pleasant afternoon for the local fans at bet365 Stadium on Monday. Stoke will enter this tie in the highest of spirits after a huge win at Hull City on Friday. It was also the third victory in the last five league games for Steven Schumacher and his men. Huddersfield will enter the match in a completely different mood. They lost three and drew two of the previous five Championship outings. The Terriers fell 1-3 at home to Coventry City three days ago, revealing numerous defensive holes on the occasion. The dominance of home teams in recent head-to-head games only adds to the appeal of the home win pick. Stoke City are well worth backing to claim the spoils at the 2.00 odds.

Stoke did an amazing on defensively to keep hold of Hull City’s in-form players on Friday. They are up against Huddersfield who have scored just twice in the last four league games. Only two of the Terriers’ previous five Championship affairs provided three or more goals. Since this is still a relegation six-pointer, we lean towards the Under 2.5 goals bet at the 1.75 odds.
