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.
