Huddersfield got promoted to the Premier League despite an overall negative goal difference. Huddersfield actually had the 14th best home goal difference in the entire Championship. This doesn't bode well for their Premier League survival chances.

Huddersfield Players to Pick for FPL

Huddersfield have made a lot of signings in preparation for their debut Premier League season. As a result it will be difficult to predict their starting lineup with any real certainty.

Huddersfield Defence

With Huddersfield's negative goal difference in their Championship campaign last season, Huddersfield defenders won't be popular. There's a chance Chris Lowe may be on penalty taking duties but even with this being their likelihood to concede goals will quash much interest.

Huddersfield Midfielders

Marquee signing Tom Ince may get some interest at £6.0m. He is as likely as anyone to be a starter for Huddersfield scoring 13 league goals in 40 appearances last season for Derby. Elsewhere Aaron Mooy will be hold a more defensive role but does have the advantage of being £5.5m and favourite to be both penalty and free kick taker. Elias Kachunga (£6.0m) could prove a good differential pick. He is listed as midfielder and scored 12 league goals in 42 appearances last season.

Huddersfield Forwards

Steve Mounie (£6.0m) and Laurent Depoitre (£5.5m) have both been signed to bolster the Huddersfield front line. They join Collin Quaner (£4.5m) and Nahki Wells (£5.0m) as Huddersfield's listed forwards. Collin Quaner may get some attention because of his price. This interest will come more in hope of him starting rather than expectation. None of these four strikers have any real statistics behind them would warrant selection however.
