Mmmm. I don’t think so, I back us to win tonight. I think too much is being placed on Saturday being a safe bet. We know what relegated teams can do to high-flying clubs (think us against Leeds the season we went down).
Having to win Saturday makes me very nervous.

Would you take a draw tonight if offered right now? on 18:16 - Apr 30 with 1625 views
We can't take beating Huddersfield for granted as football doesn't work like that but leading 2-0 and not having to worry about what Leeds are doing would be a huge de-stressor.
However, I spent the last hour listening to the KoA podcast and feeling very uneasy about the number of references they were making to 'already relegated Huddersfield', as if it's a guarantee of a walkover on Saturday.
I'd much rather we won tonight, and allowed ourselves some margin of error for Saturday.

Gut reaction is a resounding 'yes'.

I fully agree, but would still take a point tonight!

I honestly don't think I would. Huddersfield could potentially be a more difficult game for us if they park the bus and defend for their lives. We struggle in those situations when the expectation for us to win is higher.

Absolutely.

Going into the final game in 2nd is what we want.
That's a very fair argument. I'll change my answer to yes please.

Head says Yes, heart says No.. We have 88 goals this season, let's score 6 tonight and 6 on Saturday!!! 100....(65 minutes to kick off I'm a tad optimistic!)

No. I'd just rather not risk Huddersfield not being the walkover everybody thinks it will be. I’m wary of another Maidstone where we have all the possession but can’t put the ball in the net. Or another Preston where the officials make massive mistakes. I don’t fancy a written apology instead of a place in the Premier league. Leeds have kindly opened the door for us on more than one occasion now, so can we please just walk through the bloody thing and then slam it firmly in their faces.

For me tonight is as winnable as Saturday. Two draws could be enough (or even one), but I fancy us to win tonight and would be quite surprised for us to lose. In a one-off match things can go against us and I would prefer to get the job nearly done tonight rather than leave too much to do on Saturday.
Yes definitely. We need to be 2nd when we play Huddersfield. That’s the priority and a point does that for us.
They’re already down and things don’t seem harmonious there. I think we would be strong strong favourites to at least match the Leeds result. If you offered me a draw right now I would certainly take it.

One thing: If we win tonight, Southampton will be pretty certain that they'll have to face Leeds in the play-offs, therefore they're more likely to want to beat them on Saturday for morale purposes than they would be if they fancied sneakily letting them beat us to the autos.
If you know what I mean.
