The race for promotion continues on Monday afternoon as Huddersfield Town awaits Blackburn Rovers at John Smith’s Stadium. The outcome of the early kickoff fixture would be crucial for both sides.

Host Huddersfield Town would seek to maintain their three-game winning streak when they face the Rovers. Last weekend’s shock away win over Watford was a strong statement by The Terriers as they push to preserve their Championship status beyond this season.

Blackburn Rovers, on the other hand, have suffered two consecutive defeats, which poses a significant drawback in their quest for a place in the playoffs. The Rovers are just a point above seventh place Norwich City.
