Huddersfield Town’s 3-0 win, on 31 October 2020, at Millwall, shows that three days is a long time in football! The team was transformed from Wednesday’s lacklustre outfit to a confident, slick side. We got the ball forward fast and with pace and some of our quick passing was a joy to watch. This contrasted with the Londoners’ slow and ineffective build-up. Who would have thought! The second goal, Pipa’s 89th minute stinging drive that was too fierce for Lions’ stopper Bartosz, was my pick of the three. I was delighted for Pipa because, in each of his appearances, he has shown a welcome propensity to shoot on sight. This result sees Town rise to 12th in the Championship table with 13 points from nine games.
On Tuesday, 3 November 2020, K.O. 19:00 we continue our Championship campaign, this time at home to Bristol City. This game will be purchasable on iFollow for £10 and will be available, without charge, to current season card members. The game is not listed, at present, as being shown on the Sky red button but it would be prudent to check, before purchasing, nearer the time.
Since 2001, the teams have clashed, at home, 10 times with a 6-1-3 record in all competitions. Our last encounter, in Yorkshire, was on 25 February 2020 when we won 2-1 in the Championship. Chris Willock and Karlan Grant, from the spot, scored either side of the break with Famara Diedhiou bundling in a late consolation for City
In 2019-20, Bristol City finished the Championship in 12th place after an early season push for promotion faded badly. This season, they eliminated Exeter City and Northampton Town in the Carabao Cup before losing to Aston Villa in the 3rd round. Following Saturday's 3-1 home defeat to Norwich City, their second successive loss, the Robins are in 10th place with 14 points. City are in a poor run of form and are without a win in five. All being well we will continue our new found form and I think that we will win.
Current PP odds: Town: 13/8 Draw: 9/4 Bristol City: 8/5
Perhaps it was the glass of wine with my dinner, but the Home win seems the value this time!

I'd take a point from this one but after a good start they have wilted a little of late have Bristol, it's not a ground where we win often, although both the times I've been, we have come away victorious.
The wins at Swansea and Millwall say we are capable of winning but we appear to be consistently inconsistent. Who knows what going to happen!!!
It's not listed as being on the red button, disappointingly. The 13/8 on Town is worth consideration.

Definitely winnable when we’re firing on all cylinders but Bristol are a decent outfit, I’d take a draw but to be optimistic 1-0, Koroma.

I presume the game isn't available on the red button because it kicks off at 7pm. None of the 7pm ko games are listed on Tuesday or Wednesday but the 7.45 games are.

Should be a good, open game. Both teams looking to express themselves and get on the front foot.

I recall Brizzle City going through a period of poor form when Alan Dicks was the manager. Some of the disgruntled fans took to chanting, "Dicks out!" during their games.

Another tough fixture on paper. I predicted draw for last game and we won so I'm doing the same here. Wells will no doubt have blinder.

My Mrs is a Liverpool fan and always laughs at me when we're watching Soccer Saturday for the scores cos I say 'he used to play for us' so much as the pundits describe the goals lol

Mind you the number of players Clark got through probably created a glut just on its own for a few seasons.

I've voted draw simply because I voted for a draw against Millwall, so I'm hoping for the same outcome on Tuesday. I think you need to add 'I've haven't the foggiest' because I think the lack of fans in the grounds is producing some odd results. Just take Wycombe beating the Universe's largest club for example - bizarre!

Won their first 4 but haven’t won in the 5 games since then.
Would take a draw!
1–1.

We won 3-1 down there not that long ago.We had a great day out.A load of ale and a good old sing song. That was on 27 April 2013. Since then we have played there on four occasions, three times in the Championship and once in the FA Cup and lost each time. BTW the location of Tuesday's game was given in my original post.
