Huddersfield vs Preston North End Prediction and Betting Tips

Publish date: 2024-05-24

Huddersfield host Preston North End at the John Smith's Stadium on Tuesday (December 12) in the EFL Championship, looking to extend their unbeaten run to five games.

With 21 points from 20 games, Huddersfield are 21st in the league table, facing an early relegation crisis. However, things have improved lately, with the Terriers slowly finding their feet - going winless in four games - winning one.

That win was a slender 2-1 victory at Sunderland 10 days ago. Delano Burgzorg netted the winner for Huddersfield in the 67th minute after Luke O'Nien had cancelled out Michal Helik's opener in the first half.

Preston, meanwhile, have lost steam lately, going four games without a win. The Lilywhites lost consecutively to Cardiff City (2-1), Middlesbrough (4-0) and QPR (2-0), before a goalless stalemate with Norwich City on Saturday.

Tht drop in form has seen them plummet to ninth in the standings with 29 points, just one behind the Championship playoffs spots, which shows that all's not lost yet for them.
