Manchester United approaches the Boxing Day fixture with a big win in its previous league game against Cardiff City. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's debut as interim manager of the Red Devils following Jose Mourinho's depart was a success with his side cruising to a 5-1 victory against the Seagulls on Saturday.

Over the last 10 matches across all competitions, The Terriers have just two wins under their belts while losing seven and drawing one. Huddersfield is without a win in its last five Premier League outing.
