Huddersfield Town head coach David Wagner has made it clear he isn't interested in records.

The 44-year-old is firm with his belief that what has gone before doesn't affect the game in hand.

But Town fans would love him to break one unwanted hoodoo and secure all three points on the Championship's opening day.

You have to go back to 2010 for the last time that Town emerged victorious from their debut fixture. Anthony Pilkington (twice) and Jordan Rhodes were on the scoresheet that day as Notts County were comprehensively beaten 3-0.

Since then?

The record reads P 5 D 1 L 4.

In fact, Town have lost on opening day for the last four years running. That needs to change.

Fans will be hoping for a favourable fixture as well, having suffered defeats to Hull City and Bournemouth in their last two curtain-raisers - and both teams went on to secure promotion.

Is David Wagner the man to change the record?

His opening day stats stand up rather better than his current club.

He joined Borussia Dortmund II in 2011 and since then has won three of his five league season openers, losing the other two.

Last year, his Dortmund side suffered a 3-0 defeat to Fortuna Dusseldorf, but the year before Wagner led his team to a 2-1 victory against RW Erfurt.
