Huddersfield vs Notts County Match Summary
Competition | English League One |
|---|---|
Match Date | Saturday 5 September 2026 |
Match Time | 15:00 UK time |
Venue (City, Stadium) | Accu Stadium |
Two unbeaten sides collide at the Accu Stadium as League One leaders Huddersfield host newly promoted Notts County in a fixture loaded with early-season intrigue.
The Terriers sit top of the table after taking 10 points from a possible 12, riding into gameweek five off the back of a 3-1 home win over recently relegated Oxford United.
Notts County have made a tidy start back in the third tier, drawing three and winning one of their opening four, salvaging a point at Doncaster through Oliver Cooper's goal to keep their unbeaten record intact.
The engine room battle should be lively, with Huddersfield the clear favourites but the Magpies arriving with plenty of belief and no defeats to their name.
Huddersfield vs Notts County Form
Huddersfield are the League One pacesetters and top the form table, losing just once in their last 11 league matches. Joe Taylor is the man in form, hitting a late brace to sink Oxford United, and there have been over 2.5 goals in six of the Terriers' last seven League One outings. Ryan Ledson is chipping in from the engine room too.
Notts County are still unbeaten since returning to the third tier, drawing three and winning one of their first four fixtures. Ranked 10th for form, the Magpies leaned on Oliver Cooper's goal to rescue a point at Doncaster, and he remains their standout for chipping in with goals and winning fouls in the middle of the park.

Huddersfield vs Notts County Prediction & Best Bets

Huddersfield are 8/11 with 10Bet to take the three points.
Best Bets
Joe Taylor to score anytime for Huddersfield Town against Notts County. Taylor spearheads the attack for the table-topping hosts and has found the net in three consecutive League One outings. With Huddersfield projected to lead the scoring and the striker carrying a 46% implied probability to strike again, he is the obvious focal point.
Darius Lipsiuc to record over 0.5 shots on target for Notts County. Starting out wide for the Magpies, Lipsiuc carries a 54% implied probability to register at least one shot on target, pointing to genuine attacking value from that left flank.
Huddersfield vs Notts County Bet Builder
Our four-leg bet builder backs a Huddersfield win, Joe Taylor to score anytime and both teams to find the net at the Accu Stadium, blending the leaders' quality with goals at both ends.
Leg one is the home win. With only one defeat in 11 League One matches and a top-of-the-table standing, the Terriers are a sound anchor for the slip.
Leg two is Joe Taylor to score anytime. The striker has netted in three of his last three League One appearances and led the line superbly in the midweek win over Oxford United.
Leg three is both teams to score, which has landed in each of Notts County's last four matches, with the Magpies stubborn enough to grab a goal in reply.
Leg four leans on the goals theme, with over 2.5 goals seen in six of Huddersfield's last seven League One games, pointing to another open contest here.
At the time of writing, this bet builder pays a best price of 9/2 and is as short as 10/3 elsewhere.

Huddersfield vs Notts County Talking Points
This one carries a subplot in the dugouts, with the Notts County boss having previously served as assistant manager at Huddersfield, while the Terriers' assistant head coach Jon Stead once played for the Magpies. Both sides arrive as two of the division's remaining unbeaten teams, so there is real bragging rights on the line. Huddersfield's counter attacks and threat through the middle are their calling card, and Joe Taylor's hot streak makes him the danger man. Notts County, strong at coming back from losing positions and defending set pieces, will fancy their chances of landing a blow, but the leaders hold the whip hand.
