Huddersfield vs Newcastle: Latest score and Premier League goal updates from John Smith's Stadium

Huddersfield Town can go level on points with opponents Newcastle United in the Premier League with a win on Saturday afternoon.

The Terriers have lost their last three matches, but were 10 minutes from a point away at Arsenal last week; they’re in 18th place on 10 points.

The Magpies have failed to win in three after a three-game winning run in November which resulted in Rafa Benitez being named Manager of the Month.

FULL TIME
FULL TIME and BREATHE! 
 
The full times are in in the Premier League and it wasn't filled with goals but there are certainly some big results across the division. 
 
Palace 1-0 Leicester 
 
Huddersfield 0-1 Newcastle 
 
Tottenham 1-0 Burnley
 
Watford 3-2 Cardiff 
 
Wolves 2-0 Bournemouth 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
GOAL!
GOAL! Wolves 2-0 Bournemouth (Cavaleiro, 90+2) 
 
Wolves have made it secure through Cavaleiro and it's much deserved.
GOAL!
SPURS 1-0 BURNLEY (Eriksen, 90+1) 
 
HUGE GOAL! I just said there wasn't a goal BUT THERE IS NOW! 
 
Tottenham NEEDED that desperately and it's the substitute Eriksen with it. 
 
​Spurs show the composure they needed in this last second but Burnley just allowed them a bit too much space. Kane lays it off for Eriksen who fires in to the near top corner. 
 
Poor Joe Hart who has had a fantastic game. 
SPURS NEWS
SPURS 0-0 Burnley 
 
The only game which remains 0-0 in the Premier League is at Wembley. 
 
It was probably the only game you wouldn't expect the 0-0 to come in but Spurs may be tired from their Barcelona exploits and Burnley are just about keeping them out. 
 
Alli has his head in his hands as he thought he was about to nick it but it's somehow kept out. 
GOAL!
GOAALL!! Watford 3-2 Cardiff (Reid, 82) 
 
Yes, they bloody well might! 
 
Bobby Reid has astonishingly scored a quick-fire second but this one is not a cracker. 
 
Foster does brilliantly to keep Bamba's effort out but the rebound falls to Bobby Reid who's first strike is blocked well but his second shot is prodded in. 
 
A big lifeline for Cardiff who might have been lucky there as there was possibly an offside in there, somewhere.
 
GOAL!
GOAL! Watford 3-1 Cardiff (Hoilett, 80)
 
It's a game of curlers! 
 
Astonishing stuff as Cardiff get involved with a goal of their own. 
 
It's an absolute cracker, very similar to his goal from last weekend against Wolves and can Cardiff salvage a way back into this game?
MATCH ACTION
I think you know... 
GOAL!
GOAL! Watford 3-0 Cardiff (Quina, 68) 
 
There really is a goal-of-the-season competition going on at Vicarage Road at the minute! 
 
And I couldn't tell you which is the best. 
 
But Watford's third is another delight. Sema's lay off finds the youngster who doesn't lash at it. Instead, he places it to the left of Etheridge and into the net. 
 
A glorious goal from about 25 yards. Game. Over. 
SUBS
I haven't reported on every substitution in the 3PMs but a big one at Molineux as Callum Wilson takes to the field to replace Jordon Ibe on the hour mark.
 
Can he inspire a comeback? 
GOAL!
GOAL! Huddersfield 0-1 Newcastle (Rondon, 55)
 
What a fantastic team goal from the Magpies.
 
Perez spots Manquillo's run inside him, and the Spaniard, 25 yards out doesn't need a second invitation to curl a pass around the Huddersfield defenders to find Rondon's late run at the far post. 
 
Newcastle have had very low possession in their game but the two best chances in the half and now they've opened the scoring! 
Milivojevic celebrating opening the scoring!  
GOAL!
GOAL! Watford 2-0 Cardiff (Holebas, 52) 
 
Another beauty from the Hornets as they look safe and secure. 
 
Deulofeu finds the full back who curls a beauty into the top right corner. 
 
They can play some really impressive stuff sometimes and they look to have done so again, today. 
MATCH ACTION
The weather is absolutely bucketing it down across the country. 
 
Perhaps this is why we're so low on goals at the moment. 
 
Or maybe I'm just trying to make an excuse. 
KICK OFF
And we're back underway in the 3PMs. 
 
Are we going to get a glut of goals in this second half? 
 
 
HALF TIME
HALF TIME: 
 
Palace 1-0 Leicester 
 
Huddersfield 0-0 Newcastle 
 
Tottenham 0-0 Burnley 
 
Watford 1-0 Cardiff 
 
Wolves 1-0 Bournemouth 
 
Not many goals so far but Palace, Watford and Wolves take narrow leads into the break. 
MATCH ACTION
He's a central midfielder. 
 
Don't know whether that's a good thing or whether it shows how poor their forwards are.... 
GOAL!
GOAL! Crystal Palace 1-0 Leicester City (Milivojevic) 
 
What a strike from the Serbian! 
 
Townsend plays the ball across the box to the Palace skipper. No one chooses to close him down and his crisp shot from 25 yards finds the far corner. 
 
Leicester need to respond. 
MATCH ACTION
 Deulofeu slotting it beyond Etheridge and celebrating after his moment of magic...  
GOAL!
GOAL! Watford 1-0 Cardiff (Deulofeu, 16) 
 
A bit of magic from the Spaniard who jinks one way, onto his left foot, feints to shoot, but has the composure to jink once again and bring it back on to his right foot. 
 
He then has enough about him to put it past Etheridge and give Watford the early goal that'll help them settle. 
GOAL!
​GOAL! Wolves 1-0 Bournemouth (Jimenez) 
 
Jota pounces on a misplaced pass back and makes a dart towards goal.
 
He waits for his teammates to join him and slips a delightful pass into the feet of Jimenez who just has to direct it goalwards...
 
and he does!
 
1-0 to the Wolves and they've turned around a bad run of form in the past few weeks. Can they keep it up here? Well, they've started well.

Player to watch

Ayoze Perez: The Spanish striker has only scored two goals in 16 Premier League appearances, but did score last week in the home defeat to Wolves. The 25-year-old has been at St James’ Park since 2014, scoring 32 times in 158 appearances, and will be hoping to add to that tally this weekend against a Huddersfield defence which has conceded 27 goals so far this season.
