With the battle at the bottom of the Championship table settled after the hosts’ victory on Thursday, Huddersfield Town and Reading will meet on the final day of the regular season on Monday. A win over Sheffield United saw the Terriers confirm their survival and condemn their visitors to the drop with one game left to go.
Huddersfield Town’s Championship season has certainly been one of contrasting halves, as they sat in real danger of relegation with 28 points on the board from their opening 31 matches before drastically improving their fortunes following the appointment of Neil Warnock in mid-February.
In his 14 games at the helm in West Yorkshire, the Terriers have successfully picked up 22 points, despite a tough start in which they won just one of his first six matches in charge, before finally moving out of the bottom three with three straight victories across late March and early April, beating Millwall, Middlesbrough and Watford to move onto 42 points with six games left to play.
Following a draw with Blackburn Rovers and a defeat at the hands of Swansea City, Warnock’s men would then earn a commendable point in a 1-1 draw away at playoff-chasing Sunderland, before moving within touching distance of guaranteeing their safety with a 2-1 triumph away at Cardiff City, thanks to a Joseph Hungbo finish and a Jack Simpson own goal.
