Bristol City vs Huddersfield Town
England – Football League Championship
Date: Friday, 17th March 2017
Kick off at 19:45 UK/ 20:45 CET
Venue: Ashton Gate Stadium.
The Championship continues on Friday night bringing us two very interesting duels between teams fighting against relegation and title contenders. Bristol City are going to host one of the best teams at this moment in the league Huddersfield Town and we are going to see one hell of a match.
The squad from Ashton Gate Stadium has finally ended the negative streak which lasted for weeks during the last weekend. They have snatched three points from DW Stadium against Wigan thanks to 1 – 0 victory. The only goalscorer in that match was Aden Flint in the stoppage time. That victory surely increased Bristol’s team spirit.
Looking at the full time winner odds, Huddersfield are having a small advantage. Away win is currently priced at 29/20 rate, while chances for the hosts are a bit slimmer at 21/10. We believe this is a textbook example of good BTTS pick and here are a couple of reasons why.
It is true that David Wagner’s team has been playing amazing football lately, but Huddersfield have always conceded goals on the road against mid-table teams. They have kept a clean sheet away from home in only one out of their last seven games.
As for their opposition, the offense of Bristol City is led by a youngster Tammy Abraham. Even though their results at home are not so impressive, we have always seen goals.
Bristol City vs Huddersfield Town: Head to head
The Terriers have been slightly more successful in the history of head to head encounters winning seven out of 17 clashes with Bristol City.
Huddersfield came out victorious from the first meeting of the season 2-1 on the home court, but their fans can certainly still remember the painful defeat they suffered in the last visit to Ashton Gate when they lost 4-0.
Bristol City vs Huddersfield Town: Prediction
The hosts fight for survival, the visitors for the promotion. Both teams have been rock-solid at the back over the last couple of weeks, and with the stakes set to the max, we can expect a real men battle with very few goal scoring opportunities.
Bristol City vs Huddersfield Town: Bet Tips
