Huddersfield Town sit 3rd with 19 points from 10 matches, while Peterborough United are at the bottom in 19th with just 9 points, so this game means different things to each side. The hosts need points to stay in the top group, while the visitors need every point to escape the lower zone. Huddersfield Town have just won 2-0 in the league and are unbeaten in 4 straight matches, but their attack still relies more on the late stages than the opening period. Peterborough United are also unbeaten in 3 straight, but they are clearly a team that scores few and concedes more this season (9 scored, 16 conceded from 10 matches), so their defence will have to work hard for the full 90 minutes. The pattern should be the hosts dominating possession and pushing high, while the visitors sit deep and wait to counter. The first half may not open up because both sides will be cautious, but in the second half the hosts should step up the tempo and have chances to score from sustained attacks, which is the period when the visitors most often concede.
