The Terriers will continue their Sky Bet Championship campaign on Saturday 11 March at the Hawthorns against West Bromwich Albion.

In the last meeting between the two sides, the Terriers drew 2-2 against the Baggies at the John Smith’s Stadium, with two goals from Tino Anjorin in the first half before West Brom drew level after the break.

THE OPPOSITION

West Brom currently sit ninth in the Sky Bet Championship and are only four points behind Norwich City in the top six.

West Brom come into the game following a 1-0 home victory against Wigan Athletic on Tuesday 7 March, with Daryl Dike's header the difference.

Head Coach Carlos Corberán joined the club in October following the dismissal of Steve Bruce after less than a year in charge.
