Huddersfield Town vs Swansea Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

Prediction published on 18/04/2024, 10:00  by Matthew Newman in Championship Predictions

Three games left for Huddersfield to climb to safety begin with Swansea visiting on Saturday afternoon. This is a huge game for The Terriers as their final home game next week will see Birmingham visiting who is the team directly above them. A result against Swansea can see them hold their own fate going into that contest. Rhys Healey scored an injury-time winner for Huddersfield in their most recent home game against Millwall and could have picked up another three away at Bristol City away from home last time but for conceding an injury-time penalty. That came in the 101st minute with the decision looking a harsh one on Huddersfield. Fans will be hoping that fires them up for this encounter. 

Swansea have been streaky all season, winning only two of their last 11 away from the Liberty Stadium in the league. They have drawn five of those 11 though, with both teams scoring in each of those draws. There are few teams in the second half of the table who are able to score at the same rate away from home as Swansea has this season but they have not been good enough at the back to turn that goalscoring into more than a single point. A record of 6-6-9 away from home is solid enough compared to the teams around them but it has been a season of mooching around mid table for them with little hope of a promotion challenge but equally no real danger of going down.
