The Terriers continue their Sky Bet Championship campaign when they travel to Watford on Friday 7 April for our first Easter fixture, in a 3pm kick-off.
In the last meeting, the Terriers suffered a 2-0 loss in our first home game after the World Cup break in December, which we will be looking to rectify when we travel to Vicarage Road.
THE OPPOSITION
Watford currently sit 11th in the Sky Bet Championship after 39 games, just six points behind Blackburn Rovers who sit sixth in the Play-Off places.
The Hornets come into this game off the back of an away 2-0 loss against Luton Town on Saturday 1 April after the international break, Watford have won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five games.
Chris Wilder was appointed manager of Watford at the beginning of March 2023 on a contract until the end of the season after the dismissal of Slaven Bilić.
