Huddersfield Town
Championship
In the previous season, both teams won their road games, while Bolton also won the EFL Trophy match. In the past ten h2h games, Huddersfield won five times and Bolton secured four wins.
Regarding the number of goals, five out of ten h2h games ended with three or more goals, and we saw both teams scoring in the same number of games.
Huddersfield team overview
Huddersfield suffered relegation from the Championship in the 2023/24 season but failed to return the following season. They finished 10th, not even securing the Playoffs.
This year, the Terriers had an excellent start to the season, and it seemed that at least securing the Playoffs shouldn't be a problem. However, they are slowing down as the season progresses. To be fair, the main reason for this is probably the constant number of new injuries and a tough schedule. For this match, they could miss up to nine players. Due to a good start to the season, the Terriers are in 7th place with 19 points - still just two points away from the Playoffs.

Bolton team overview
Bolton are playing their fifth consecutive season in League One after securing promotion from League Two in the 2020/21 season. Despite having two League Playoffs, the Wanderers failed to make it out of them. Last year, they finished eighth and missed the chance for promotion.
The Wanderers are hoping they can have a better season this time. To be fair, they did pretty well throughout the season, but losing two of the last three games pushed them to 8th place. Now, they have 17 points in 12 rounds and are four points away from the Playoffs, but with one game played more.
The team will have two players back from international duty for the Huddersfield game - Josh Sheehan (Wales) and Eoin Toal (Northern Ireland).

Prediction
Huddersfield are in terrible form, having won once in their last six games. Their offense really struggled, scoring just three goals during that period - 0.5 per game. Also, mostly due to a poor offense, they went under 2.5 goals in four out of the last six games - 67%.
Bolton are one of the teams that really struggled away from home this season. In six games in League One, they drew three and lost three while scoring a total of three goals - 0.5 per game. More importantly, they went under 2.5 goals in five out of six matches!
In the previous h2h game at John Smith's Stadium, we saw a 1:0 win for Bolton. Considering all the above, we believe that an under 2.5 goals bet is the safest option for this League One tie.
3 Reasons why we should see fewer than three goals
- Huddersfield scored just two goals in the last five matches
- Bolton failed to score in the last two road games
- Bolton haven't scored more than one goal in six road games this season
