Southampton vs Huddersfield Town

Southampton aims to continue their impressive undefeated streak as they prepare to face Huddersfield Town in the upcoming Championship clash this Saturday.

Currently occupying the second spot in the league standings, Southampton faces Huddersfield, who are positioned 21st but have managed to string together a four-match unbeaten run of their own.

Despite Southampton's early-season struggles, including a four-game losing streak that raised questions about Russell Martin's position as manager, Martin has since demonstrated his capability in leading the team toward Premier League promotion.

Their recent 2-0 victory over Rotherham United marked their 21st consecutive match without a loss in the Championship, with an impressive 15 wins during this period.

The team's surge, particularly with seven wins in their last eight matches, has propelled them into the top two, overtaking Ipswich Town after months of stiff competition.

While Leeds presents a formidable challenge in the race for the second spot behind dominant leaders Leicester City, Southampton remains focused on their own performance and results rather than fretting over competitors.

Additionally, Southampton harbors ambitions in the FA Cup, as evidenced by their convincing 3-0 win over Watford in the replay, setting up an enticing last-16 clash against Liverpool.

Despite being far from favorites to win anything from their arduous journey to St Mary's, Huddersfield is playing at their highest level in a while.

The Terriers defeated Sheffield Wednesday, a team vying for relegation, 4-0 last weekend at the John Smith's Stadium, under the direction of interim manager Jon Worthington.

It broke a six-match losing streak, but it also extended the team's unbeaten streak to four games after they had posted three straight draws.

Huddersfield, who are only two points behind Millwall in 16th place, will look to take advantage of their opponents on Saturday, even though they have won their last ten home games overall.
