Daniel Pudil set to return for Sheffield Wednesday against Brighton

Sheffield Wednesday defender Daniel Pudil could return to contention for the home game against Brighton.

Left-back Pudil has missed the last three games due to a thigh injury sustained in the recent home win against Bristol City.

Midfielder Sam Hutchinson will be assessed after being forced out of the midweek win at Blackburn due to a back injury, so Glenn Loovens is on stand-by, while Fernando Forestieri is pushing for a recall to the starting line-up.

Fellow striker Lucas Joao remains doubtful due to a groin problem and goalkeeper Joe Wildsmith is recovering from a dislocated finger.

Brighton welcome back Gaeten Bong from suspension but have lost Dale Stephens to a ban.

Full-back Bong missed the midweek goalless draw at Ipswich, during which midfielder Stephens was dismissed for two bookings.



Midfielder Beram Kayal remains a doubt after sitting out at Portman Road with an ankle injury.



Winger Kazenga LuaLua is still sidelined with a knee problem.
