The Championship is currently underway and has reached its 34th round, leaving only 12 more rounds to determine the champion, the teams that will be directly promoted, and those that will be relegated. One of the games to look forward to this weekend is Burnley vs Huddersfield, featuring two teams that have had completely different seasons.
Burnley has found the perfect formula for securing a promotion to the Premier League, having become the best team in the league after 33 games and currently sitting at the top of the table. On the other hand, Huddersfield is struggling in the relegation zone and, despite a recent victory, they need to continue winning games to climb up the rankings.

Betting on Burnley
Burnley is maintaining an impressive pace in this Championship season, having secured 21 wins, 10 draws, and only suffering two defeats, accumulating a total of 73 points. This is enough to position them at the top of the table, with Sheffield United trailing behind by 12 points. Despite a recent 1-1 draw against Millwall, Burnley continues their unbeaten streak of 13 games in the campaign.
In their last home game, they also managed to secure a 1-1 draw against Watford. However, Burnley can boast of being the best home team in the league, having remained unbeaten in all 17 home games with 12 wins and five draws. Since their relegation from the Premier League, they have made Turf Moor their fortress, having played 19 matches in all competitions and not losing a single one.
Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Arijanet Muric; Connor Roberts, Hjalmar Ekdal, Charlie Taylor, Ian Maatsen; Josh Cullen, Jack Cork; Josh Brownhill, Ashley Barnes, Jóhann Gudmundsson; Anass Zaroury.
Betting on Huddersfield
Huddersfield secured their first win of 2023 with a 2-1 victory against Birmingham, putting an end to their eight-game winless streak in all competitions. The recent three points obtained are crucial in keeping them out of the bottom of the overall standings. However, Huddersfield’s troubles persist as they currently sit in 22nd place in the standings, with a record of eight wins, seven draws, and 17 losses, putting them in a relegation battle.
Prior to this match, there is concern within the Huddersfield camp as they are the worst away team in the league, having only won two out of 16 matches on the road. Their last victory away from home was in December 2022, and they have now gone five matches without a win on their opponent’s turf.
Probable lineup (3-5-2): Nicholas Bilokapic; Tom Lees, Michal Helik, Matthew Lowton; David Kasumu, Jack Rudoni, Jonathan Hogg, Etienne Camara, Jaheim Headley; Joseph Hungbo, Daniel Ward.
