This match isn't just another game for Castledine; it's about affirming the club's championship aspirations and connecting with the passionate Huddersfield fan base. His excitement to participate in a fixture so rich in local rivalry is palpable, "[It] will be a good game, a tough game. We're not going to be complacent about it, they're a very strong side with a lot of confidence," Castledine further added.

Looking Ahead
