Your support makes all the difference.Huddersfield welcome Bournemouth to the north on Sunday lunchtime as Eddie Howe’s side look to continue their decent start to the second-half of the season.
A win would take Bournemouth level on points with ninth-placed Everton in the Premier League table while Huddersfield are in desperate need of all three points as they try to get out of a relegation battle.
A win would lift them out of the bottom three – albeit perhaps temporarily – and put seven points between themselves and bottom-of-the-table West Bromwich Albion.

Steve Mounie celebrates after heading Huddersfield into a 2-1 lead
43' - Bournemouth's Junior Stanislas produces one of the worst strikes of the season as his shot from distance flies out for a throw-in.
Really special stuff.
Half-time - Huddersfield 2-1 Bournemouth
The referee brings an end to the opening period and Huddersfield lead at the break through goals from Alex Pritchard and Steve Mounie.
46' - Alex Pritchard has an early chance for Huddersfield but he slices his angled shot wide of the near post from inside the area.
48' - Huddersfield's Aaron Mooy takes aim from just outside the area but he drags his left-footed shot a good few feet wide of Asmir Begovic's far post.
