West Bromwich Albion vs Huddersfield Town Prediction: The home side are favourites to win

On Saturday afternoon, West Bromwich Albion will aim to secure consecutive victories in the Championship as they play against Huddersfield Town at The Hawthorns. After defeating Wigan Athletic in their previous game, The Baggies remain in contention for a playoff spot. Meanwhile, Huddersfield Town, who are now under new management, is struggling to avoid relegation from the second-tier of English football.

Daryl Dike scored again as West Brom continued their impressive form at The Hawthorns with a narrow 1-0 victory over Wigan Athletic. Despite having numerous chances, the hosts failed to seal the win earlier and had to hold off a late surge from Wigan to secure the three points. Although the celebrations were subdued at full time, the win was crucial for West Brom, who moved up to ninth in the league table, just four points behind sixth-placed Norwich City. While a playoff spot seemed likely after a great start under manager Carlos Corberan, four consecutive away defeats have slowed their progress. Nevertheless, the team remains undefeated in 10 home matches across all competitions, with their last home loss dating back to October against Sheffield United. Fans will surely be pleased to see their team back at The Hawthorns this weekend.

Neil Warnock, the manager of Huddersfield, can only imagine having an unbeaten streak for as long as ten games as his team fights to avoid relegation. However, they did manage to stop a troubling run of losses on Tuesday night against Bristol City, with a goalless draw that marked their first clean sheet under Warnock's guidance. Despite Bristol City having the majority of clear chances, Huddersfield earned a valuable point. The club is eager to add to their tally in the Championship table, but the fact that safety is currently six points away is not lost on them, particularly as their next six matches are against teams in the top ten. This challenging schedule has supporters concerned that Huddersfield's 11-year absence from League One may be coming to an end. Warnock, who has won eight promotions in his impressive managerial career, would undoubtedly consider keeping a struggling Huddersfield team in the Championship this season as one of his most significant accomplishments.

Despite not scoring many goals against Wigan on Tuesday, West Brom displayed a commanding performance, making them feel confident about their ability to defeat Huddersfield. Huddersfield has allowed seven goals in their last two away games, so they will need to have a strong defensive effort to come out with a positive result at The Hawthorns. It seems unlikely that Warnock's team will be able to keep consecutive clean sheets. The match is predicted to end with a West Bromwich Albion win and we can expect less than 2.5 goals in the game.
