Huddersfield Town faces West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns on Friday, with the chance to move three points clear of second-placed Bournemouth in the Championship standings with kickoff at 11 pm.
On Monday, Huddersfield Town, who had gone over three months without defeat in all competitions, were knocked out of the FA Cup by Nottingham Forest.
The Terriers missed out on a home quarter-final against Liverpool and saw their 18-game unbeaten run end.
However, Huddersfield can at least focus on continuing to push for promotion, as most of their rivals will have had fewer matches than them by the time they host Ipswich Town at the weekend.
Corberan is looking forward to the Terriers extending their Championship winning streak to five games when they take on Huddersfield. Despite conceding twice at the City Ground, they will be optimistic about Huddersfield further improving their recent defensive league record of shipping just three times in nine outings.
The Tigers have scored eight goals in their last three league games and will hope to repeat that feat in the Midlands against West Brom.
The Baggies have only scored 16 goals in 2018 and entered this contest with the third-best defensive record in the Championship. However, they will hope that their recent clean sheet gives them some momentum going into this away fixture.

West Brom Team News
Bruce is unlikely to make any changes to his West Brom starting lineup for this contest despite injury issues. While Grant netted the goals at Hull, academy graduate Taylor Gardner-Hickman made a difference in central midfield, and it will leave the likes of Jayson Molumby, Adam Reach, Grady Diangana and Sam Field as substitutes.
Huddersfield Town Team News
With the same strategy used in the first game against Forest, Corberan could likely repeat his back three formations for this week’s match.
Prediction and Odds
With both clubs posting rare results last time out, neither team is sure how they will react to their situation.
