Huddersfield Town v Everton

Their Yorkshire counterparts are 16th, a meagre six points above the dreaded drop zone.

David Wagner’s outfit ended a torrid run of five games without victory last weekend when they downed Watford 1-0 thanks to Tom Ince’s injury time strike.

An away win for the Toffees could see them register a third league ‘double’ of the campaign after Monday’s 1-0 success over Newcastle signed off only their second.

Three points for the Blues wouldn’t see any movement with Burnley eight points better off prior to kick off, but a victory for the home team could see them almost safe.

The Terriers haven’t been blessed with goals this term, Steve Mounie their top marksman with a measly nine, but their main man is Aaron Mooy.

He has accrued four goals and three assists this season, but his range of passing and ability to cover ground could be the difference at the John Smith’s Stadium.

Allardyce said in his press conference that Morgan Schneiderlin and Leighton Baines are touch and go. Dominic Calvert-Lewin is expected to miss the rest of the season. No change in the long term absentees.
