The Terriers made a dream return to the top flight with wins against Crystal Palace and Newcastle in their opening two matches and have only lost one of their six so far, although they are without a win in four.
“Huddersfield is a tough team, good players, well-organised and so strong,” said Mauricio. “In the games we’ve watched they have always been difficult to beat and don’t concede too many goals. They are so athletic and physical.
“We need to be ready to fight, to challenge in every action and then try to create chances, to be better and try to win.
