Same again for Terriers

Huddersfield boss Chris Powell could name an unchanged starting line-up for the visit of Brighton.

Town came through unscathed after extending their unbeaten run to four games with victory against Blackpool on Saturday and Powell will select from the same squad.

Striker Martin Paterson made his first appearance of the season following a knee injury as a late substitute at the weekend and is hoping to play a bigger role.

Striker James Vaughan and defender Anthony Gerrard (both calf) remain sidelined.

Struggling Brighton will check on Bruno and Joao Teixeira.

Full-back Bruno missed Saturday's 2-1 home defeat by Middlesbrough - the Seagulls' eighth game without a win - due to a tight groin and midfielder Teixeira went off with a head injury, but both could be in contention.

Striker Craig Mackail-Smith is set to miss out again with a hamstring problem while midfield duo Dale Stephens (ankle) and Andrew Crofts (cruciate) remain on the sidelines.

Rohan Ince, Chris O'Grady and Adrian Colunga are pushing for recalls after dropping to the bench against Boro.
