Footymad preview History of the Huddersfield Town v Rochdale fixture

Huddersfield Town play host to Rochdale at Galpharm Stadium on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Terriers are clearly on top, having won 6 and lost only 1 of the 10 games.

The last time the two teams met at Huddersfield Town was back in March 2004, over five years ago, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Division Three match.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Huddersfield Town at home in recent games, and, though we cannot see a run starting here, we do think the Terriers will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
