Match Preview
No selection troubles for Terriers Huddersfield manager Lee Clark has plenty of options for the evening kick-off against Brentford. Clark has no new injury or suspension problems, while midfielder Oscar Gobern is expected to be back in contention after being forced out of last week's win over Oldham due to concussion. Gobern, who suffered double vision and was replaced by Anton Robinson, returned to full training in midweek and has been given the all-clear. Fellow midfielder Damien Johnson is closing in on his return after sustaining a hamstring injury in the home defeat to Bournemouth in mid-December, but may have to wait until next week. Defender Calum Woods (ankle) is in a similar position, while midfielder Scott Arfield is a fortnight away after turning his ankle in training. Goalkeeper Alex Smithies is making steady progress following summer knee surgery. Brentford goalkeeper Richard Lee is fit for the trip. The Bees' number one was ruled out of last weekend's visit of Walsall due to a stomach injury with youngster Simon Moore deputising. Moore kept a clean sheet in the goalless draw but Lee will be expected to return at the Galpharm. Elsewhere, defender Karleigh Osborne is closing in on a return from a dead leg but will not be ready for this weekend. Skipper Kevin O'Connor is also on the mend after two months out with a foot injury and the midfielder has been pencilled in for a return to training within a fortnight. Boss Uwe Rosler hoped to sign Peterborough striker David Ball on loan this week but the move has fallen through.

Match Report
Rhodes shoots Town into top two Jordan Rhodes struck his 28th goal of the season as Huddersfield fought back from 2-0 down to secure a 3-2 win over Brentford. Rhodes, who produced a quality finish five minutes after the restart to lift Town back into the automatic promotion places, has scored 13 goals in his last seven matches. Brentford went ahead in the 21st minute when Town skipper Peter Clarke pulled over Marcus Bean in the box. Gary Alexander sent keeper Ian Bennett the wrong way from the penalty spot. Brentford doubled the lead in the 29th minute when Niall McGinn showed a great burst of speed to beat Gary Naysmith to the byline and crossed low to the near post for Alexander to fire home his second from close range. Town winger Gary Roberts' powerful shot was tipped onto the crossbar, but Huddersfield scored from the resulting corner, striker Alan Lee barging into Brentford goalkeeper Richard Lee and nodding the ball over the goalline for his 100th league goal. Town levelled in first-half stoppage time through Jamie McCombe's looping header and Roberts hit the crossbar again before Rhodes won it in the 50th minute when he dribbled past Marcel Eger and curled a right-footed shot past Lee into the far corner.
