Huddersfield Town beat Bradford City 3-0 in a League One derby to move to the top of the table.

Huddersfield Town secured a 3-0 victory at Bradford City in a League One derby on Saturday, moving to the top of the table on 28 points from 13 matches. The win avenged a 3-1 defeat at Valley Parade the previous season.

Luton Town, currently fourth on 23 points, visit Huddersfield at Accu Stadium on Tuesday evening for a 7.45pm kick-off. Forward Joe Taylor told BBC Radio Leeds that the Bradford victory would be 'essentially useless' if the team did not back it up against the Hatters. 'This performance is essentially useless if we don't go and back it up on Tuesday night. It'll be another tough game, albeit we've got the advantage of being at home, and we seem to have made that a bit of a fortress this season,' Taylor said.

Reflecting on the Bradford performance, Taylor praised the display. 'It's become a bit of a fortress for them over the years, and I'm just over the moon and delighted that we've been able to come here and put on the sort of display that we have, and essentially come away with the three points.'
