Our pre-match preview

Huddersfield will likely look to control possession at home and build attacks patiently, while Exeter City are expected to stay compact and look to hit on the counter. The tempo may ebb and flow, with cup-tie nerves possibly keeping the early exchanges tight.

The central battle will be between Huddersfield's midfield pressing and Exeter's ability to play out from the back under pressure. Whichever side wins that duel of second balls and transitions will probably shape the flow of the match.
