History of the Huddersfield Town v Oldham Athletic fixture

Huddersfield prepare to entertain Oldham Athletic at Galpharm Stadium on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Terriers are clearly on top, having won 11 and lost only 3 of the 20 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Galpharm Stadium was just last season, in January 2009, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides

Huddersfield Town may have lost only 1 of their last six home games, but the other 5 have resulted in drawn games. The Terriers's have scored 7 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 9.

Oldham Ath.'s away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Latics have hit 5 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Huddersfield's total of 65 points from their 39 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League One. Oldham Ath. find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 43 points from their 38 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Huddersfield at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Terriers will at least gain a draw. Score draw
