Match facts

    Huddersfield Town are unbeaten in their past six home league matches against Stoke City, since a 2-1 defeat back in March 1992. This is Stoke's first away league visit to Huddersfield since December 2017, when the sides drew 1-1 in the Premier League. Huddersfield have taken just two points in their past eight league matches on New Year's Day since beating Stoke 2-1 in 1997. Stoke are looking for their first away league win on New Year's Day since a 2-0 win at Leyton Orient back in 1991, having drawn one and lost four since. Huddersfield midfielder Juninho Bacuna scored an own goal in a 0-2 defeat by Stoke in August 2018 but netted the winner in a 1-0 victory over the Potters on 1 October. Stoke striker Sam Vokes has been directly involved in five goals in his last six league games against Huddersfield (two goals, three assists).
