Huddersfield prepare to entertain Doncaster Rovers at Galpharm Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Terriers are clearly on top, having won 8 and lost only 3 of the 14 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Galpharm Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2005, with Huddersfield running out comfortable 3-1 winners in a League One match.
