Huddersfield will be without striker Jamie Paterson for the Sky Bet Championship clash with Nottingham Forest at the John Smith's Stadium, live on Sky Sports 1 HD.

Paterson is on loan from Forest and is ineligible to face his parent club as Town attempt to make it three successive league wins after beating Charlton and Bolton.

Highlights from Huddersfield's 4-1 win over Bolton last weekend

Forest are keeping their fingers crossed defender Matt Mills will be fit.

Having netted the equaliser, Mills was then withdrawn with a hamstring injury during their 2-1 home defeat by Middlesbrough.

Ben Osborn will definitely be missing with a groin strain sustained at the weekend while on-loan midfielder Jonny Williams, who made a 15-minute substitute appearance against Boro, should again start the game on the bench.
