Huddersfield Town
- Liam Manning has certainly added some variety to Huddersfield Town’s tactical approach since his January appointment, but the Town have largely been an open, possession-based side with a flexible ability to press high when in possession or sit back when out of possession.
- Huddersfield’s home record has been impressive this season, winning 11, drawing 5 and losing just 2 from their 18 League One fixtures to date.
- Town have averaged 1.89 goals per home game in the league this season, while conceding 0.89 per game at the other end.
Lincoln City
- Lincoln City are the league leaders, with 77 points from 36 games.
- Michael Skubala’s tactical setup has been the main driving force behind Lincoln’s rise to the top of the league.
- Skubala’s side have been compact and secure in the central areas of the pitch, playing a solid mid-block structure in transition and trying to overload through their wing-backs in possession.
- Lincoln City have been terrific away from home this campaign, winning 10 of their 18 fixtures.
- They come into this one in red-hot form, having claimed all five of their most recent League One victories, including a 2-0 win over Cardiff City and a 1-0 victory at Exeter City.
Key Players
- Robert Street has been in excellent form for the Imps of late, scoring four times in his last five appearances, so he’ll be a good contender for an anytime goal this week.
- Huddersfield’s Leo Castledine has ten goals in 23 appearances in League One and will be the Terriers’ most likely source of goals.
Head-to-Head
Each side has one win and two draws in the last four head-to-heads in League One, with Huddersfield failing to win their most recent home game against Lincoln.
Betting Insights

Prediction
- This fixture will be a real test for both sides as Manning’s Huddersfield Town and Skubala’s Lincoln City have such contrasting styles.
