Stoke to Win

Neither side come into this game in the best of shape it must be noted. Stoke have won three and lost two of their last five in the Championship, while on home soil have won two and lost three. Huddersfield’s form though is even worse with zero wins over their last five in the league and one win, two draws, and two losses over their last five on their league travels. The Terries have also failed to score in both of their most recent away games and just two over their last two home/away games.

It’ll be tense but Stoke should have enough here against a side who are very low on confidence.

Under 2.5 Goals

Andre Vidigal is Stoke’s highest goal-scorer with a paltry five goals, so that’s going to tell you quite a bit about Stoke’s troubles in front of goal this season. Just 37% of Stoke’s home Championship games have seen at least three goals so far this season, the league average stands at 52.7% at the time of writing.

We’ve seen Over 2.5 Goals landing in just two of their last five at home and while it’s landed in three of Huddersfield’s last five on the road, they’ve failed to hit the net over their last two away games, as mentioned above. This one looks like ending 1-0, possibly 2-0 so we’re going with the value in the Under 2.5 Goals market.

Corners Match Bet, Stoke

One positive stat we can exploit though is that the hosts have been averaging 6.63 corners per home league games this season while the away side are averaging less than 5 per away Championship match. We’re unlikely to see an end-to-end bout here. The away side are leaking goals and will aim to frustrate the hosts, they’ll will set up to soak up pressure meaning Stoke will probably have to take a few shots from outside the box which means we should see plenty of corners for the home side.

Jonathan Hogg to Commit 2 or more Fouls

Four players are tied as the joint most-booked players for Huddersfield but it’s defensive midfielder Jonathan Hogg we’re going to focus on for our Bet Builder. He averages 1.4 fouls per game but of late has been sitting in front of the back four with the aim of offering further protection for the Terriers’ porous defence.

With a low block implemented, Huddersfield are going to be taking down a few of the opposition players when they get into threatening positions and Hogg is the most likely player to Commit 2 or more Fouls.
