The Huddersfield Vs Arsenal fixture ended in a disappointing 1-2 home loss for the Terriers against Unai Emery’s men. The fight against relegation continues among the bottom placed sides with the hosts being at the utmost bottom of the table.
The result of the Huddersfield Vs Arsenal game sees the Gunners course more harm on the host after losing 5-0 at Stamford Bridge to Chelsea in the previous game-week. Meanwhile, the Gunners were happier going into the fixture with three players returning from injury ahead of the game.
This was hard done on Huddersfield as Alexandre Lacazette and Alex Iwobi combined to set the tone for a 1-2 away win at the John Smith’s Stadium. This leaves the home side scratching their head as they are rooted at the bottom of the League log.
Another game, another goal for this guy 👏
