Huddersfield Town
WLLWLL
Huddersfield will be hoping to bounce back here following a 3-0 League One losing effort in their last game against Burton Albion.
Rumarn Burrell (9', 55') and Julian Larsson (45') scored for Burton Albion.
It has been a rare occasion in recent times that Huddersfield Town havenโt conceded. The reality is that Huddersfield Town have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 6 of their previous 6 clashes, leaking 11 goals during that time. That kind of pattern might not follow through into this match, of course.
Cambridge United
LDDDWL
Following on from a loss in their previous game against Charlton Athletic in League One action, Cambridge United and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
Tyreece Campbell (14') was the scorer for Charlton Athletic.
In 5 of the previous six games featuring Cambridge United, a notably low volume of goals have been hit between them and their opposition. The overall average goals scored per game during that period is a meagre 1.83, with the average goals for The U's being 0.83.
Coming into this fixture, Cambridge United are unbeaten in their last 2 away league matches.

Head to head
Delving into their past head to head meetings going back to 29/04/1995 tells us that these fixtures have been miserable for Cambridge United. They have not managed to get themselves any wins at all whereas Huddersfield have just been stronger than them, finishing as winners in 67% of those games where they have faced each other.
A total of 17 goals were yielded between them in this period, with 12 from The Terriers and 5 netted by The U's. That is an average goals per game value of 2.83.
The previous league match featuring these clubs was League One match day 21 on 20/12/2024 which ended up with the score at Cambridge United 0-4 Huddersfield Town.
The match was refereed by Ollie Yates.

Team News: Huddersfield
Almost everyone can be considered, as thereโs just the lone fitness concern for the Huddersfield boss Jon Worthington to contend with from a near full-strength group of players. Ollie Turton (Meniscus injury) is out of contention.

Team News: Cambridge United
Thanks to a mainly healthy group, there is only the one fitness worry for the Cambridge United gaffer Neil Harris to be concerned about. Shayne Lavery (Hamstring injury) misses out for this game.

Prediction
It looks to us that Huddersfield Town will likely get the goals that they need when they play Cambridge United, who could well struggle to score.
Accordingly, we see a fairly comfortable 2-0 winning margin for Huddersfield Town at the end of the match.
