Burnley vs Huddersfield

The Terriers make the short trip to Lancashire to take on Vincent Kompany's talented side hoping against reasonable hope that they may be able to come away ...

Burnley's final ball has just been superb too, to their credit - they've got in behind from multiple angles and varying distances. He gets into the box and unleashes a fierce swerving shot that the keeper tips over the bar. Nominally a back four, Kasumu and Camara are dropping in to make it a six, but nobody seems quite sure what their space is or who their man is. Good work by Town as Rudoni wins a tackle and play the ball to Koroma, who knocks it over the top for Ward. Burnley work the ball out to the right about 40 yards from goal and Ekdal spots Tella's run in behind Headley and picks him out with precision. He can't hold it, opting to punch it clear instead, and the man following up the loose ball is called offside. He looks to be in a lot of pain. Lovely ball over the top by Diarra looking for Waghorn (who came on for Ward just after the fourth goal) inside the box, but he knows he's offside and checks his run hoping someone might get onto it instead. In from Rudoni but Ward can't meet it.

"We've got 13 games to go and I think all of them are winnable. When I've seen them this season they are a Premier League team. "They [Burnley] are the best side I've seen in 25 years really. We are still number 21 in English football, and we have to get better." What pleased me at the end was the fans clapping us because we're going to need the fans now. "It was solid on all fronts. I think they were just too good today.

Could Huddersfield therefore spring the shock of the weekend, making it two wins on the spin, in the process affording their survival bid a timely boost? The Terriers have managed victories in just a quarter of their league fixtures thus far, including one in eight dating back to last year. Safe to say, then, that Saturday’s hosts will likely fancy their chances of securing a swift return to winning ways, at the expense of a Huddersfield Town side in the thick of the battle against the drop.
