What’s the last thing you want when you’ve just lost your manager? A visit from Manchester City, I’d imagine.
Huddersfield enter the game rock-bottom of the Premier League table and without a manager following the departure of David Wagner.
And, according to Paul Merson, things could get ugly at the John Smith’s Stadium on Sunday.
He told Sky Sports: “Will there be enough light bulbs in the scoreboard? Deary me. This could be any score you want.
“Huddersfield have written this game off by sacking David Wagner [sic] in the week and announcing the new boss after this game.
“They’ve got no manager, are in horrendous form and staring at relegation. The players will be all over the place emotionally too.
“If City put their foot down then this could be a major boost for their goal difference. City made Wolves look ordinary – what are they going to do to Huddersfield? I’ll go 5-0 and I’m being kind.”
And the Terriers will be dreading the sight of one man in particular.
Sergio Aguero.
In fairness, the Argentine terrifies most central-defenders, but he especially enjoys playing against the Terriers.
He has six goals in his last three games against them, featuring a hat-trick in the 6-1 victory at the Etihad earlier this season.
Huddersfield did manage to snatch a remarkable 0-0 draw at City last season when Aguero was ruled out through injury, but when he plays, it usually spells trouble for the Terriers.
What’s more, a slight niggle meant he only played 14 minutes in the previous match against Wolves, so he should be extra fresh.
As far as your FPL team goes, the only possible concern is the form of Gabriel Jesus.
Two goals against Wolves make him a difficult man to drop, but Pep Guardiola loves to rotate and Aguero’s legs are fresher.
Plus, when fit, Aguero has started every Premier League game over Jesus this season.
