Huddersfield Town vs Bristol City - Huddersfield defender Tommy Smith is back in contention for Bristol City clash

Huddersfield defender Tommy Smith will return to contention for the home game against Bristol City following suspension.

Right-back Smith, who sat out last week's draw at Blackburn due to a one-game ban, could return to the starting line-up.

Head coach David Wagner has no new injury or suspension worries, but centre-half Mark Hudson (hamstring) and winger Sean Scannell (ankle) are still out.

Midfielders Jack Payne and Philip Billing are among those pushing for recalls as Town bid for their first win in six league matches.

Midfielder Gary O'Neil is Bristol City's only concern with a damaged toe.

Adam Matthews is available again after his fitness was built up by an intensive 10-day programme, the on-loan Wales defender returning in the 2-0 home victory over Ipswich after a five-week absence.

Swedish defender Joel Ekstrand has suffered another setback after suffering a knee injury in training.

Ekstrand has played only twice since his summer arrival at Ashton Gate and he joins Arnold Garita on the sidelines after the young striker saw his loan spell at Plymouth cut short by a knee injury.
