Predicted Huddersfield Town lineup, Bristol City preview and score prediction for today’s game

Matches
Huddersfield Town take on Bristol City this afternoon and will be hoping to extend their three-game unbeaten run. Today should be a good test for Town, as we’re up against a team that are decent enough (they’re above Town in the table after all) but are far from world beaters. It feels like we have had to think a lot about the opposition in our recent games and account for their strengths and counteract them but this may be a game where we have an opportunity to assert ourselves a bit more and potentially even dominate possession for spells, which would be a novelty after three games of possession stats in the low twenties.

I've made no secret in the past of how my predicted Town lineups are often wide of the mark. Despite my best efforts it's not easy to know what Carlos is thinking when it comes to team selection. However, for tonight's game I genuinely think I might be able to accurately predict the whole starting eleven. In fairness, this is more due to the fact we've only got around eleven experienced players in the squad at the moment and Carlos has shown a reluctance to play youngsters from the academy when there's a first team player available, regardless of their form. So here's who I think we'll see playing for Town tonight. Goalkeeper: Schofield Couldn’t be blamed for Scott Malone's curling finish last Wednesday. No Town fan expected Malone to be capable of such an assured finish after his largely ...
