Huddersfield Town vs Northampton Town Prediction and Betting Tips | 29th December 2025

High-flying Huddersfield host Northampton Town at the Accu Stadium on Monday for their clash in League One, aiming to extend their winning run in the competition to three games. The Terriers have beaten Rotherham 3-1 on the road before a stunning 5-0 demolition of Port Vale on Thursday for their biggest win of the league season yet.

Leo Castledine struck a brace, whereas Ryan Ledson, Bojan Radulovic and Alfie May were all on target too on a goal-crazy evening for the side.

Subsequently, Lee Grant's side moved up to seventh place on the League One table with 34 points from 22 games and remain inches away from moving into the promotion spots.

Huddersfield have been one of the most entertaining sides in the division, netting 40 goals, more than any side in League One, while also conceding a staggering 31 times. That leaky defense has kept them from ranking higher up the charts, or perhaps from contending for the division title altogether.

A beleaguered Northampton Town feel like a lamb in a slaughterhouse here, with the side ever closer to relegation and looking to pick themselves up from the 5-1 humiliation at the hands of Burton this week.

With only 27 points in the bag, the Cobblers are in 16th place and remain only three points clear of the bottom four.
