Huddersfield prepare to entertain Oldham Athletic at Galpharm Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Terriers are clearly on top, having won 11 and lost only 2 of the 17 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Galpharm Stadium was less than a year ago, in January 2006, as the Terriers squeezed past their rivals by a scoreline of 3-2 in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides
Huddersfield Town's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Terriers have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Oldham Ath.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. The Latics's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 9 goals for and 8 against.
Huddersfield's 24 points from 18 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position. Oldham Ath. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Coca-Cola League One, picking up 29 from their 18 games so far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Terriers at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Latics come away with an easy victory. Away win
