Milton Keynes Dons face a tough test as Huddersfield Town visit Stadium MK on Saturday. The Terriers have struggled on the road, losing 12 of 23 games last season. Huddersfield Town boss Martin Drury spoke ahead of the trip, saying: 'We have to have a good mentality. We go there with confidence, and the duty to represent the club as best they can.'
What happened?
Huddersfield Town finished ninth in the table last season, but their away form was a significant bug-bear for the club and fans alike. They lost 12 of 23 games on the road, and Drury knows that they will face a different challenge at Stadium MK.
Why it matters for Milton Keynes Dons
Milton Keynes Dons are newly promoted to League One, and they have signed good players in the summer. Drury said: 'They're a big strong powerful side, they're very direct, they're a threat from set-plays, they're a threat on the counter too.'
What comes next?
Huddersfield Town will be looking to improve their away form, and they will face a tough test against Milton Keynes Dons. Drury said: 'We know the challenge will be different this week compared to last (against AFC Wimbledon), we've worked on that in training and hopefully we can transfer that into the game against a really strong outfit.'
Next fixture: vs Luton (away, 2027-01-16).
