Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest we don't have an obvious winner for this clash, but good reason to think Huddersfield and Burton will score at least a couple of goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Michael Duff or Mark Robinson has served up too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.22 equating to roughly a 74% probability.

Goal Statistics

Huddersfield Town have been steady in attack of late, finding the net in 8 consecutive League One matches. Their PG of 1.8 against Burton Albion on Sunday suggests that run is likely to continue.

An absolutely dreadful PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Burton Albion fans, as should a 6 League One matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
