Peterborough will sweep aside the Terriers
The Johnstone's Paint Trophy may not have the glitz and glamour of the FA Cup, but they do have one thing in common - a Wembley final. It's a prize worth fighting for, and everyone in it will want to win it.
After getting relegated from the Championship last term, Peterborough have had a brilliant start to their first season back in League One. They have only lost three of their opening ten games and currently sit in second place, just two points behind leaders Brighton.
Meanwhile, Huddesfield started poorly, got better, but have been abysmal in recent weeks. They've lost their last three games against Swindon, Rochdale and Bristol Rovers, failing to score a single goal in the process.
The last meeting between these sides in August saw Huddersfield throw away a two goal lead to lose 4-2 thanks to goals from George Boyd, Craig Mackail-Smith, and an Aaron Mclean brace.
The Posh have only lost one of their last four away games, and have only failed to score once away from home since their relegation to League One.
Peterborough boss Gary Johnson admitted this is a game he desperately wants to win, and is determined to get past the Terriers.
With a focussed Peterborough facing a Huddersfield side low on confidence, we can see the Posh heading back to the London Road Stadium with a place in the third round. Back a win for Peterborough at [3.15].
Reckon we're right? Or will the favourites Huddersfield win at [2.38]?
