Middlesbrough vs Huddersfield Town Prediction: Middlesbrough are favourites to win the game

Middlesbrough is set to host Huddersfield on Saturday at Bloomfield. They suffered a loss against the Terriers last season. Would Middlesbrough be able to beat the Terriers this time? 

Middlesbrough's home performance seems awesome this season as they managed (W3 D3 L2) to win on three occasions out of eight. They lost their 2nd home game of the season against Blackburn (1-2) in the last match.

Earlier Middlesbrough defeated (1-0) Birmingham at home. In their eight home league games, Middlesbrough scored 10 goals against their visitors and conceded 9 in return.

Middlesbrough's away form is a matter of concern as they managed (L5 D1 W1) to win on one occasion out of seven. With 16 points in 15 games, Middlesbrough is sitting in the 20th position. They have scored 19 goals so far this season and conceded 21 in return.

Chuba Akpom is the team’s top scorer with 4 goals followed by Duncan Watmore (4) and Isaiah Jones (2) respectively 2nd and 3rd positions.

Steffen; Smith, Fry, Lenihan; Jones, Howson, Crooks, Giles; Hackney, Watmore; Akpom.

Huddersfield's away performance is a matter of concern (L5 D1) as they didn't win a single game yet this season. They lost in their last home game against Rotherham (1-2).

They played a draw against Luton Town (3-3) at home earlier. In their six away league games, they scored 7 goals against their visitors and conceded 14 in return.

Their performance at home is better than away as they managed (W3 D3 L2) to win on three occasions out of eight league games. With 11 points in 14 games, Huddersfield is sitting at the bottom of the table. They have scored 16 goals so far this season and conceded 22 in return.

Dany Ward is the team’s top scorer with 3 goals and 2 assists followed by Jordan Rhodes (3) and Tom Lees (2) respectively 2nd and 3rd positions.

Nicholls; Lees, Helik, Turton; Thomas, Camara, Kasumu, Jackson; Holmes; Ward, Rhodes.

Huddersfield's current away form could work wonders for Middlesbrough as they didn’t win a single game yet. Although, Middlesbrough suffered a loss last season still we are favoring Middlesbrough to win the game. In this match, we can expect less than 2.5 goals as historically both teams have scored less than 2.5 goals in a face-off.
