History of the Huddersfield Town v Tranmere Rovers fixture

Huddersfield prepare to entertain Tranmere Rovers at Galpharm Stadium on Tuesday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Terriers are clearly on top, having won 9 and lost only 4 of the 17 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Galpharm Stadium was just last season, in September 2005, the Terriers carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides

Huddersfield Town's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. Terriers have conceded a disappointing 11 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.

Tranmere Rvs.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. The Rovers's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 5 goals for and 3 against.

Huddersfield find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 27 points from their 23 matches. Tranmere Rvs.'s total of 36 points from their 22 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League One.
