Cardiff City

Former Huddersfield captain Lee Peltier will miss out on a return to the John Smith’s Stadium after being sent off for two bookable offences last weekend, he will face a one-game suspension. Cardiff will also be without Sean Morrison who will return beyond mid February.

Idriss Saadi made a scoring return to action for the development team on Monday afternoon and it was thought that this one may come to soon for him but with Joe Mason leaving the club, Russell Slade may have little choice in at least giving him a place on the bench.

Lex Immers is likely to make his full début, playing in behind on-form and newly re-positioned striker Anthony Pilkington. Fabio could replace Scott Malone at full-back in a bid to add attacking presence but that decision is in Russell Slade’ hands.

The Opposition



Huddersfield Town Association Football Club is an English association football club that is based in the West Yorkshire town of Huddersfield and currently play in the Football League Championship (2015–16).

In 1926, Huddersfield became the first English club to win three successive league titles, a feat which only three other clubs have matched, and none has bettered. They also won the FA Cup in 1922.

Nicknamed The Terriers, the club plays in blue and white vertically striped shirts and white shorts. They have played home games at the John Smith's Stadium since 1994. The stadium replaced Leeds Road, Huddersfield Town's home since 1908.

History and description

John Smith’s Stadium was one of the first modern-era stadiums to be built in England. It replaced Huddersfield’s old Leeds Road.

Construction of the stadium started in 1992, and when two new stands were finished in the summer of 1994, Huddersfield moved into their new home. The stands at both ends were completed in late 1994 and 1998.

The stadium was initially called Alfred McAlpine Stadium, but changed names in 2004 to Galpharm Stadium following a new sponsorship deal. The stadium has been called John Smith’s Stadium since the summer of 2012 after a new sponsorship deal was agreed with brewer Heineken.

Good news Huddersfield under 16 price ia actually under 18 so if you are 16 or 17 years old the ticket price is £8.50 instead of £23 pound if you have already paid supporters club you can collect a refund or use on another trip

Cardiff City put the wrong price out.

So Under 18's Tickets £8.50p

Huddersfield Town fans are being urged to join in a minute’s applause in memory of heart swap footballer Gavin Greig.

Gavin, 23, of Golcar, had a heart transplant when he was just nine years old.

But anti-rejection drugs caused the cancer which claimed his life last week.

Gavin, a local league goalkeeper, was a keen Town supporter and now his friends are planning a tribute from the terraces at Town’s home game against Cardiff on Saturday.

Team News

Huddersfield Town

Sean Scannell will likely miss out with a knee injury while Jonathan Hogg returns after serving a one game suspension last time out. Dean Whitehead returned to action after over a month out in the Terriers’ last outing with a late substitute appearance and he will be fit to contend for a starting place.

Huddersfield have no further injury worries currently, they are likely to go with Nahki Wells in the front-line with Emyr Huws in midfield and former Cardiff City captain Mark Hudson is Suspended.



Cardiff City

Former Huddersfield captain Lee Peltier will miss out on a return to the John Smith’s Stadium after being sent off for two bookable offences last weekend, he will face a one-game suspension. Cardiff will also be without Sean Morrison who will return beyond mid February.

Idriss Saadi made a scoring return to action for the development team on Monday afternoon and it was thought that this one may come to soon for him but with Joe Mason leaving the club, Russell Slade may have little choice in at least giving him a place on the bench.

Lex Immers is likely to make his full début, playing in behind on-form and newly re-positioned striker Anthony Pilkington. Fabio could replace Scott Malone at full-back in a bid to add attacking presence but that decision is in Russell Slade’ hands.
