Brad Potts, Ched Evans and Scott Sinclair scored the goals, the first time North End have scored three in a game for more than two months. Here are the PNE player ratings from the Champiosnhip clash.

The PNE keeper saved well from Mbenza, O'Brien and Bacuna in the first half on his way to a deserved clean sheet. Photo: Camerasport
2. Sepp van den Berg 7
Another decent display at right-back for the Dutch teenager. Started to gain the confidence to push forward too. Photo: Camerasport
3. Jordan Storey 7
Got to grips with Huddersfield's attack as the first half went on and was comfortable in the second half as North End got on the front foot. Photo: Camerasport 7
4. Andrew Hughes 7
Got the benefit of the doubt with a a penalty call in the first half but otherwise solid and won his headers. A second clean sheet in a row with the Welshman playing in the middle. Photo: Camerasport
