Championship prediction: Huddersfield - Aston Villa (March 7, 2017)
Championship prediction: Huddersfield - Aston Villa (March 7, 2017)Huddersfield is one of the teams in the Championship that has any chance of direct promotion to the Premiership next season. Team occupies third position but only the top two finishers receive the right to play around directly among the MAC in England. Ultimately Huddersfield 99% will play offs, but far more secure if they can overcome the second Brighton.
Huddersfield managed to win 65 points after 34 rounds of the championship. Second place is six points from them, but to overtake the leader Newcastle team will have to fight for 10 points liability.
After a long series of wins, Huddersfield break in the last two rounds conceding draw with Barnsley and defeat by Newcastle. So the team realized that there is no chance to fight for first place, but with a little luck and good game it is possible to overcome the Brighton of whom are with a game less.
As hosts, Huddersfield are a stable team made only three defeats, compared to the first Newcastle with four losses at home. Against Aston Villa have no problems and result other than victory would be a real surprise.
Aston Villa have no chance to save the season. Team is located in the lower half of the table and until recently had fallen into a true "hole" after recording seven losses in eight games. But suddenly came a glimmer in their game and recorded three consecutive wins and even managed to keep all three matches a clean sheet.
These good results definitely late and it's time to stop. Members of the "villa" is still teeming with injured or suspended players and their chances to return to the elite of England each season are becoming increasingly illusory.
Huddersfield will shake off quickly from defeat to Newcastle and a good win over Aston Villa will inspire courage of the players in their battle for promotion.
