Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest we don't have an obvious winner for this clash, but good reason to think Burton and Huddersfield will score 2 or more goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in the past, and neither Gary Bowyer or Grant Lee has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s of late either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.30 equating to approximately a 77% probability.
