While we wait for the restart at the John Smith's a chance to remind you that we want your team of the year suggestions for 2017.

Will it be Kane, Lukaku or Aguero? Maybe Mooy, Ward or Pope?

Feel free to have a stab at shoehorning as many of the standout performers of the last twelve months into a neat 11 with our team selector.

Don’t forget to share it on social media so others can tell you how wrong you are!

The last chance of the half sees Jonas Lossl punch away a Gudmundsson corner, and that's our lot for the opening 45 minutes.

Burnley with the better openings, but they haven't been able to take advantage.

We'll have one added minute.

Florent Hadergjonaj is down after an aerial collision with Scott Arfield.

The Burnley man concedes the foul to give away a free-kick...he looks to have left an arm in as the two came together, but referee Paul Tierney doesn't deem it a bookable offence.

David Wagner's Huddersfield with 59% possession, but Sean Dyche will be the much happier manager with Burnley on the front foot as we near half-time at the John Smith's Stadium.

After that prolonged series of chances for Burnley, the game just seems to be getting bogged down in midfield at the moment.

Will we see a breakthrough before half-time?

Gary Passmore: The mighty Clarets will win 2-1. We've got Defour.

Steven Defour with a free-kick for Burnley, and it's not in too dissimilar a position to the one he scored at Old Trafford on Boxing Day.

However, the wall does it's job this time, deflecting the ball behind for a corner.

After a slow start, it's all Burnley now.

Arfield glances a header wide from inside the area after meeting Gudmundsson's in-swinging cross.

Sean Dyche is out of his technical area applauding his side's endeavour going forward after that effort. They might need the encouragement the longer it stays 0-0, given the chances they've had.

Really good spell from Burnley, this.

This time it's Defour who drags an effort wide from 20 yards out after Gudmundsson did well to craft an opportunity for the Belgian international.

Another great chance for Burnley goes awry.

This time it's Berg Gudmundsson, the Icelander, who weaves his way beyond Scott Malone and Jonathan Hogg, before shooting hard and low - but it's inches wide of Lossl's left-hand post.

Huddersfield lose possession cheaply in their own half after Laurent Depoitre's error.

Jeff Hendrick collects the ball 35 yards out and waits for the run of Barnes to his right. But the Burnley number 10 sees his low ball across the face of goal just evade Scott Arfield.

The subsequent free-kick sees the ball in the back of the Huddersfield net, but Jeff Hendrick is offside.

It's a let off for the hosts, who had to rely on a smart Jonas Lossl save from Phil Bardsley before the ball came the way of Hendrick.

Mathias Jorgensen becomes the first player booked in this game, after bringing Gudmundsson down on the right flank.

Successive corners for Town; the latter falls to Jonathan Hogg 20 yards out who sends a dipping half-volley over the bar.

Ooof.

In Huddersfield's first real opening, Collin Quaner puts his right foot through the ball from outside the box and Nick Pope has to be on his guard to tip it over. The corner comes to nothing, though.

Callum Hayes: There will be more goals between Huddersfield and Burnley than Liverpool v Leicester... calling it early!

Charlie Taylor wins an early free-kick for Burnley after he's fouled by Collin Quaner.

Berg Gudmundsson takes it, and sees his delivery punched clear by Jonas Lossl in the home goal.

After a wonderfully observed minute's applause to remember Huddersfield supporters who passed away in 2017, we are under way in West Yorkshire, on a cloudy but dry afternoon.

If you're late joining us, here's a reminder of how the two teams line up...

It's a toss up as to which of these clubs has provided the biggest surprise success story of the season so far.

Is it humble Huddersfield, sitting 11th, six points clear of the relegation zone after a 45-year absence from the top flight?

Or unfancied Burnley, punching above their weight and hanging on to the shirt-tails of the top six and dreaming of Europe?

Huddersfield versus Burnley doesn't scream Premier League glamour and many neutrals might struggle to name many of the players on view, but in an age where money speaks volumes their respective success brings a warm glow to romantics everywhere.
