Manchester City

• City’s last home league win against Huddersfield – and the last time they scored at home against them – was in a second division match in November 1987. It finished 10-1 to the Citizens, with three different players scoring hat-tricks (Paul Stewart, David White and Tony Adcock).
• The Citizens have failed to find the net in their last four home league meetings with Huddersfield. They’ve never gone five consecutive home league games without a goal vs a single opponent in their history.
• Man City fired in just seven shots on target across their two Premier League games against Huddersfield last season, fewer than against any other side during the 2017-18 season.
• David Silva’s next Premier League appearance will be his 250th for Man City – the Spaniard has scored 48 goals, and provided more assists than any other player in the competition since his debut (75).

Huddersfield Town

• Thanks to their 0-0 draw at the Etihad in May, Huddersfield were the only side to stop Pep Guardiola’s Man City scoring at home in the Premier League last season.
• Huddersfield have failed to score in eight of their last 11 Premier League games, netting just once in each of the other three.
• Steve Mounie has scored 33% of Huddersfield’s Premier League away goals (4/12).
• Huddersfield come into this tie without Juninho Bacuna, Danny Williams, Isaac Mbenza, and Erik Durm. Jonas Lossl should be back between the sticks though, while new signing Adama Diakhaby will hope for a start after making his debut from the bench against Chelsea.
