Football : England: League One
Venue: John Smith’s Stadium
Saturday 24th January 2026, 1230hrs (GMT)
Saturday lunchtime brings us this upcoming Yorkshire derby between 6th placed Huddersfield Town and 3rd placed visitors Bradford City in what is also a top six encounter in League One with both sides keen to not only gain bragging rights but also pick up a valuable three points.
Huddersfield Town were dealt a heavy 3-0 loss away from home at Burton Albion in last weekend’s action but the overall picture has seen a steady set of results for Lee Grant’s side as The Terriers have suffered just two defeats in their last 10 matches in all competitions.
The other defeat came in the form of a 1-0 loss away at Stockport County but otherwise, Huddersfield have registered four wins along with points gained in four draws and includes league wins against Rotherham United, Port Vale and Northampton Town - the hosts have won only one of their last five games overall though.
Bradford City also slipped to defeat last weekend in the English third tier as The Bantams lost 2-1 at home to the league leaders Cardiff City and things do not get any easier with this upcoming trip to the John Smith’s Stadium to take on Huddersfield Town.
However, Bradford have lost just three out of their last eight matches in League One which includes previous defeats at the hands of Leyton Orient and Mansfield Town but also includes picking up vital wins at the expense of Reading, Wigan Athletic, Port Vale and Blackpool respectively.
Graham Alexander’s side also possess a promising record away from home which stands at 4-5-3 14/15 so far this season.
The Betting Verdict
Bradford City thumped Huddersfield Town 3-1 at home in the earlier corresponding fixture this term.
The Pick :
Huddersfield Town 1-1 Bradford City
