......................Butland...................... Edwards.........Zouma......Shawcross.........Wimmer ................Allen......Cameron................. Ramadan................Shaq..................Choupo .......................Diouf....................... Very hard on Crouchy, but easier to play for counter attacks with Diouf on top. Think Diouf is our fastest player too. Subs: Grant, Tymon, Afellay, Fletcher, Jese, Crouch. I think Crouch is certain to start. Could be the right decision as well, time will tell!

Interesting to see how we play , having had a win and no doubt they will be up for it at home with a noisy crowd behind them . Need to try and get a point at least then rest a few at Chelsea before another must win game on New years Day. Jack Tom Zouma Ryan Wimmer Affelay Cameron Allen Ramadan Shaq Choupo

Whatever the line up and formation I would just like to see us take a grip on this game and not play the cowering underdog role that we seem to adopt as a matter of course these days. I think I am going to be disappointed!

Same side for me except Afellay for Fletcher which of course won't happen.

Johnson in contention,if Hughes puts him in ahead of Edwards he needs sacking on the spot. No way will he play. The club wouldn't threaten the impending move for him with a possible injury. At least I hope they wouldn't!

Concentration at the back for 90 If they managed that for 90 seconds I'd be impressed. We'll make Tom Ince look like Ronaldo and Messi I'm sure.

My spidey senses tell me there will be red card drama today. I hope it's in our favour.

I think Crouch is certain to start. Could be the right decision as well, time will tell! Yes, I'm not sure but just looking at the way Hughes seems to work, he doesn't much like changing a winning side, Crouch gives us an 'out', occupies defenders thus making space for our other attackers and he is as likely to nick a goal as anyone else we have. The downside is he can make us look a bit rubbish, slowing down our attacking play and encouraging the long ball but for the moment at least I reckon Hughes is all about gaining some points, the aesthetics can wait until we are top half! That's how I guess he will play it anyway although I notice no ones 'predicted' team has him included on this thread.

I'd start the team that finished the game bar Fletcher in for Diouf. Huddersfield are good out wide and we'll need all hands to the pump down both flanks. Their midfield is very mobile. Allen will be very useful in this one further forward. Cameron against Mooy will be very important. Yes Huddersfield are good out wide. If hope we don't play Wimmer at left back, would be disastrous.

I hate the formation Hughes plays. I hate the first 11 he picks. But if there is a chance to play the same team two games running we should take it.

They're good in possession.
This is NOT the game for Crouch to start. Diouf, Berahino, Jese, and anymore pace we have is needed!

Another scrappy win coming up in my opinion. Subs will make all the difference in this one.
0-2 Crouch, Eric 12 names.

I don't know any of their players except Mooy and Ince.
They have lost 2 in 3 at home though. I expect us to roll over and put in a spineless performance today

Remember that every goal between the two teams is worth double to the goal difference, adds one to their goal difference and deducts one from our goal difference.
