Total over 2
Huddersfield
“Huddersfield” at the distance of 34 matches is on the last place in the table. To shake up the players, it was decided to change the coach. The more experienced Neil Warnock replaced the retired Mark Fosaringham to save the club from relegation.
Under the leadership of the new coach, the Terriers played 3 matches. In their debut match, they managed to beat Birmingham (2: 1), but in the next 2 matches they suffered disastrous defeats against Burnley (0: 4) and Coventry (0: 4).
In the upcoming match, the participation of the main goalkeeper Lee Nicholls, who is in the top six goalkeepers in the Championship by xgot, is in question. In addition, Nakayama, Turton and the team’s most creative player, Holmes (2+2), who has an advantage in odds, may miss the match.
City of Bristol
Bristol City is much more successful. The team with 44 points placed in the middle of the table. The main weapon of the team is to play the opponent’s transition phases. In terms of the number of goals (5) that have been scored as a result of regaining possession within 40 meters of the opponent’s goal, the Robins are in the top 4.
Bristol City created some of the best chances of the season. In terms of xg average per shot (0.12), the team leads the championship.
In the final round, Nigel Pearson’s side unexpectedly lost to Cardiff after going nine games unbeaten.
The main defenders Atkinson and Naismith will be missing in the upcoming match.
Forecast
Both teams have serious staffing problems in defence. At the same time, Huddersfield are forced to force things and play more aggressively. I’m hoping for a good match.
