Preview for Match Cardiff City vs Huddersfield Town

As the League One season progresses into its sixteenth matchday, Cardiff City will host Huddersfield Town at the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday, December 6, 2025, at 13:30. This encounter promises to be a compelling showdown between two teams with contrasting fortunes thus far in the season. Cardiff City currently sits atop the league table, boasting 32 points from 16 matches, which includes an impressive record of 10 wins, 2 draws, and 4 defeats, with a goal tally of 28 scored and only 15 conceded.

In contrast, Huddersfield Town finds themselves in 8th place, accumulating 26 points.
