Huddersfield Town are back in Sky Bet Championship action for the final time in the regular season on Saturday 7 May 2022 when they take on Bristol City at the John Smith’s Stadium; 12:30pm kick-off.
Town come into the game having beaten Coventry City in their third win in a row, making it five wins from six since returning from the March international break.
Bristol City will arrive at the John Smith’s Stadium having seen off Hull City 5-0 in their final home Sky Bet Championship fixture of the season.
THE OPPOSITION
Bristol City currently sit in 17th position having taken 55 points from 45 Championship games.
Managed by Nigel Pearson, Bristol City find themselves unbeaten in the last five with victories over Derby County and Stoke City in the last few weeks.
The Robins will be out for revenge when they arrive at the John Smith’s Stadium following Town’s impressive 2-3 victory at Ashton Gate earlier this season.
ONES TO WATCH
ALEX SCOTT
Following his arrival from Guernsey in 2020, Scott would have to wait a year before signing his first professional contract with Bristol City. Since making his debut for the club in April 2021, Scott has become a regular starter for the Robins, playing in 37 of his sides 45 Championship games this season. With the ability to start anywhere across the midfield as well as on the right-hand side, Scott has claimed four goals during his breakthrough season at Ashton Gate. His performances have earned him recognition at international level, playing four times for the England u19’s this season.
CHRIS MARTIN
Since signing with Bristol City in 2020, Martin has gone on to make over 70 appearances for the club. The former Derby County and Norwich City striker has enjoyed a good season at Ashton Gate, scoring 12 times and claiming 7 assists in his 45 appearances. With over 150 goals in his career, Martin has always carried an eye for goal, with his hold-up play being just as effective for the teams he has played for across his 15-year senior career. His performances throughout his career saw Martin called into the Scotland national side, where he would make 17 appearances following his debut against Nigeria in 2014.
ANTOINE SEMENYO
After missing the first few months of the season with an injury, Semenyo’s return has seen him claim 20 goal contributions for the Robins. Semenyo has become key to the Bristol City attack, with Nigel Pearson playing him in all but two games since he returned from his injury. The former Newport County and Sunderland man will be a constant threat for Pearson’s side throughout the 90 minutes, with his link-up play with his teammates in attacking areas being just as threatening as how clinical he is in front of the opposition’s goal.
