Aaron Mooy back from international duty unscathed

Huddersfield's Aaron Mooy has returned from international duty unscathed and is expected to resume in midfield for the home game against Sheffield Wednesday.

Summer signing Mooy played in both of Australia's World Cup qualifiers, against Saudi Arabia and Japan, although he was substituted in the second half as the Socceroos drew 1-1 with the Samurai Blue in Melbourne on Tuesday.

Defender Chris Schindler is in contention after recovering from the facial injury sustained in the recent win at Ipswich, while head coach David Wagner has no new injury or suspension problems.

Forward Joe Lolley remains sidelined due to a foot injury as Town bid to make it nine wins from 12 in the Sky Bet Championship.

Sheffield Wednesday defender Daniel Pudil has recovered from a thigh injury and will be included in the squad.

Left-back Pudil was withdrawn early in the second half in the Owls' recent home defeat against Brighton and missed the Czech Republic's World Cup qualifiers with Germany and Azerbaijan.

Goalkeeper Cameron Dawson made his first senior appearance in the same match as Keiren Westwood was forced out due to a thigh problem, but the latter is expected to be fit.

Sam Hutchinson (back) and striker Lucas Joao (groin) are both hoping to shake off injury in time to be included.
