Huddersfield have recorded the second-least number of league-wins (8) this season, and their last success came against Watford towards the end of last month. The Terriers started this month with an impressive 1-1 draw with automatic promotion chasing Leeds United but then lost out to Cardiff on Wednesday. Famara Diedhiou’s lone goal on the half-hour mark handed Andre Breitenreiter’s side their 14th second tier defeat of the campaign. Meanwhile, Huddersfield have lost only one of their last five games at John Smith’s Stadium, while collecting eight points in the process.
West Brom, on the other hand, are heading into the match on the back of a four-game unbeaten run, recording two wins and as many draws in the period. The Baggies have won 17 league matches this season and their last success came against Coventry City on March 2. On Wednesday, Carlos Corberan’s men shared the spoils with QPR despite taking a 2-1 lead in the first-half thanks to Michael Johnston’s 25th-minute equaliser and Grady Diangana’s effort two minutes later. Though West Brom boast the fourth-best home-record in the division this term, they have struggled on the road, collecting just 18 points from a possible 54 so far.
Huddersfield Town probable starting lineup: Nicholls, Pearson, Helik, Lees, Wiles, Hogg, Matos, Spencer, Rudoni, Burgzorg, Ward
West Bromwich Albion probable starting lineup: Palmer, Furlong, Kipre, Pieters, Reach, Yokuslu, Mowatt, Fellows, Diangana, Johnston, Wallace
