Huddersfield Town won their League One game against Burton Albion at the Pirelli Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The 3-0 victory, secured with goals from Derensili Sanches Fernandes, Bali Mumba and Ashley Fletcher, moves the Terriers up to third in the table.
Sheffield Wednesday, who sit fourth on 14 points, travel to face them next on 10 October. The result confirms Huddersfield as an opponent in strong form.
Key moments and substitutions
Derensili Sanches Fernandes opened the scoring before setting up Bali Mumba for his first Huddersfield goal. Ashley Fletcher added a third later in the game. Manager Michael Duff made several late changes, with Sean Roughan coming on for his first league appearance of the season, replacing Murray Wallace after 82 minutes. Marcus Harness replaced Bojan Radulovic at the same time, and Lynden Gooch came on for Fernandes in the 89th minute.
Player performances and discipline
Defender Murray Wallace was booked early for delaying a Burton throw-in and was later substituted. Among the unused substitutes were goalkeeper Jak Alnwick and outfield players Joe Low, Jay Sway and Ethan Brierley.
The win extends Huddersfield's positive momentum heading into a key period. The next match for Wednesday is the trip to face this newly confident Huddersfield side.
