Huddersfield vs West Brom Prediction & Betting tips
Two game days before the end of the season, West Bromwich Albion is on the best course to make the return to the Premier League. The recipe for this is simple: take two more wins against Huddersfield and Queens Park. In the run-up to the game between Huddersfield and West Brom, the odds swing towards Albion, as the odds comparison of the betting base shows.
The Terriers want to avoid a home defeat at all costs. After all, David Wagner’s ex-club must fear that after relegating from the Premier League in the previous season, they will even be passed through to third-class. The lead to a relegation zone is only three points.
At Huddersfield against West Brom, there is little in the forecast for the home side, who have not scored in five of the seven league games since re-start. This contrasts with an Albion, who recently played only 0-0 but has been unbeaten for five games.
Huddersfield:
Huddersfield Town has spent long stretches of the club’s 112-year history in the top two leagues of England and most recently even played in the Premier League for two years in a row. If the terriers do not catch up quickly, there could be a hard trip to third class.
Currently, the blue-whites occupy 19th place in the table and have two other teams between them and the first relegation place, so that a total of three pursuers would have to win first to pull past Huddersfield. However, the three point lead could not be enough for two games remaining.
It is all the more important that the Terriers against the aspiring aspirant West Brom are now breaking through the latest negative series, which relates above all to the offensive. The Yorkshire team have not scored in any of their last four league games.
In the seven games since re-start, there are a total of five games without their own hits. At Huddersfield against West Brom this is exactly what favors the tip “Both teams hit: No”, especially since the only 49 goals of the season from 44 games correspond to the fourth-worst value of the championship.
Even the draw could help the Terriers, who could theoretically even bring the class to a premature end in the event of defeat by the pursuers.
Accordingly, we expect Danny Cowley to make his team very defensive again, even though the defensive of the blue-whites looked several times bad in the first leg at 2: 4 at West Brom against the promotion candidate.
Now it should be done better at home. However, the home record of the relegated Premier League is not really impressive. Nine of the 22 games at John Smith’s Stadium at home have been lost this season.
West Brom:
After West Bromwich Albion spent eight seasons in the Premier League between 2010 and 2018 and established himself as an elevator team in the top division of the country after several years, two years ago the second division took place again.
Already last summer the direct ascent would have been a success. In the end, however, the Baggies lost Aston Villa in the promotion playoffs unfortunate in the penalty shootout.
After this trauma, the men of Slaven Bilic would like to avoid these promotion playoffs at all costs this year and secure the direct promotion first or second.
Two games before the end of the season, the championship in the championship can no longer be achieved on its own. At least the second place in the current table could be defended by the Throstles with two victories against Huddersfield and Queens Park against the pursuers even without rifle assistance.
No wonder, because West Brom is currently in a direct ascent, mainly because of the staggering away record. The Throstles have lost only three of their 22 league games in foreign positions and only conceded 16 goals. Both are the respective best values of the entire championship.
