Huddersfield prepare to entertain Bournemouth at Galpharm Stadium on Tuesday evening, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. Of the 18 games played, Terriers have recorded 6 wins, and Bournemouth have come away with 3 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Galpharm Stadium was just last season, in September 2006, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League One match.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its a close one to call, but I think that Terriers's reasonable showing at home is going to see them scrape past Bournemouth. Home Win
