Watford 2-3 Huddersfield Town: Neil Warnock's Terriers win to move out of drop zone

Huddersfield Town beat a faltering Watford to make it three wins on the bounce and haul themselves out of the Championship relegation zone.

The Terriers came from behind for the second week running to continue their revival under Neil Warnock and inflict the Hornets' first home defeat in 2023.

Colombia international Yaser Asprilla had fired the home side ahead with his first goal for the club but Jack Rudoni also netted his first for Huddersfield to square it up just before half-time.

Centre-back Matty Pearson put the visitors ahead and 20-year-old Kian Harratt's first goal for the club sealed the three points, although Britt Assombalonga's goal in added time made for a nervy final few minutes for the travelling support.
