Bolton-Huddersfield Statistical Preview

Probable Lineups

Team News

Bolton

• Chris Eagles could return to the side in place of Darren Pratley.
• Manager Dougie Freedman will be without the services of Stuart Holden, Joe Riley, Marc Tierney and Adam Bogdan, who are all long term absentees.

Huddersfield

• Town have hit form and the strike partnership of Paterson and Vaughan is key.
• Mark Robins could name an unchanged side from the weekend.

Match Facts

• There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Huddersfield’s last 7 games in Championship.

• There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 5 of Bolton’s last 6 games in Championship.
• Bolton are undefeated in their last 5 matches against Huddersfield in all competitions.

Prediction

• A first defeat in six on Saturday for Bolton has halted their rise up the table, but the Trotters’ home form is improving.
• A last minute penalty miss by Jermaine Beckford meant it was the first time in eight games that Bolton failed to score.
• Huddersfield have won back to back games 2-1 and have forced their way into the top half of the table.
• Both sides could end up in mid-table obscurity this season with a lack of consistency evident.
