Two teams in dire straits. Huddersfield need the home win to try and put some daylight between them and automatic relegation, while Crystal Palace need the points to mount a survival case. Time running out for both.

Huddersfield

Huddersfield will welcome back the return of Australian Aaron Mooy who has been out through injury. He was instrumental for the Terriers last season in their much heralded climb into the English Premier League, albeit through a playoff promotion. Mooy was one of the best players of the Championship last season, and while not quite replicating that form in the EPL, is a very important figure for Huddersfield.

Crystal Place

While on the face of it they look to be in poor form, they have face the likes of Chelsea (lost 2-1), Manchester United (lost 3-2) and Tottenham (lost 1-0). Prior to that they had 8 points in 8 games, boasting a win against Burnley in mid January. Sure they will need to improve, but not having to face the likes of Chelsea and Man Utd will in itself be of some comfort.

Positions on the ladder

Huddersfield sit in 15th with 31 points, just 4 shy of automatic relegation, while Crystal Palace sit in 18th, on 27 points and in a relegation position. Both sides scoring at less than a goal a game while conceding closer to two.

The Prediciton

Despite neither team being particularly high scoring, they both tend to concede more that they should and this could make for an exciting, goal packed game. Take the over 2.5 goals here at $2.25 as both teams look for English Premier League survival.
