Huddersfield Town vs Cardiff City prediction 24.10.2023

• Competition: Championship
• Date: Tuesday, 24th October 2023
• Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CEST
• Venue: John Smith’s Stadium (Huddersfield)

Huddersfield Town’s performance has been inconsistent since their relegation from the Premier League in the 2018/19 season. They had one impressive season in the Championship where they came close to securing promotion, finishing 3rd but unfortunately lost in the playoffs. However, their recent seasons have been less successful, with the team narrowly avoiding relegation. The current season had a poor start, but they have been gradually improving. Currently, they are in 18th place with 14 points, but they are closer to the playoffs than the relegation zone. A potential victory over Cardiff could greatly improve their position in the league standings.

Cardiff City has experienced a consistent decline in their performance over the past seasons. In the previous year, the team finished 21st with 49 points and narrowly avoided relegation from the Championship because the 22nd-placed Reding had a six-point deduction. Currently in the 2023/24 season, they are performing fairly well, occupying 11th place with 17 points. However, their recent form in the last three games is worrisome, with only one point earned and a mere one goal scored.

Huddersfield Town vs Cardiff City pick: Huddersfield Town to (AH 0) win

Huddersfield Town’s season began on a disappointing note as they suffered four defeats in their first five matches across all competitions. One of these losses came against Middlesbrough in the 1/64 Finals of the Carabao Cup. However, following this dismal start, The Terriers significantly improved their performance, enduring just a solitary loss in the subsequent eight games.

Cardiff City’s current momentum is quite weak, having only earned a single point in their last three matches against Middlesbrough, Watford, and Blackburn. Their away performances have been particularly dreadful, losing four out of their last five games and failing to score in the last two.

Last season, Huddersfield emerged victorious in both of their meetings against these teams. Taking into account their previous head-to-head encounters, their contrasting forms, and the advantage of playing at home, we believe that the Terriers have a higher likelihood of winning the upcoming game.
