Analysis of the match between Huddersfield and Man City
In their last six matches, Huddersfield have recorded only 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses – a rather inconsistent run of form. However, under coach Lee Grant, they have been solid at home, going unbeaten in 7 consecutive games (5 wins, 2 draws). On the other side, Manchester City are regaining momentum after setbacks against Tottenham and Brighton. Pep Guardiola’s men are now unbeaten in 3 straight matches across all competitions (2 wins, 1 draw) and head into their trip to Accu with strong determination. That said, City must remain cautious to avoid any slip-ups, especially since their recent away form has not been convincing (1 draw, 1 defeat in their last 2 games). Still, with their squad quality and growing confidence, the Citizens have every reason to believe they can overcome Huddersfield. Head-to-head statistics are also in City’s favor: they are unbeaten in all 7 previous meetings with Huddersfield, claiming 5 wins and 2 draws. Without doubt, City’s target is to extend that streak to 8 matches.

Squad Information: Huddersfield vs Man City

Huddersfield manager Lee Grant will be without Herbie Kane, Lynden Gooch, Jack Whatmough, and Ben Wiles due to fitness issues. As a result, he is expected to rely again on the players who helped the team eliminate both Leicester and Sunderland to reach the third round, including Daniel Vost, David Kasumu, Joe Taylor, Dion Charles, Leo Castledine, and Will Alves. For his part, Pep Guardiola is likely to retain only three players from the starting lineup against Arsenal on Sunday—Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden, and Tijjani Reijnders—for Manchester City’s trip to Huddersfield in the third round of the 2025/26 League Cup.
