Terriers hopeful on Pilkington

Huddersfield manager Lee Clark is confident Anthony Pilkington will be fit for Saturday's visit of Southampton.

Winger Pilkington has been receiving treatment all week after picking up a hamstring injury in the impressive 3-0 win away at Colchester and should be given the all clear to start against the Saints. "We took him off early in the second half because the hamstring had tightened up during the half-time break," he explained to the Huddersfield Examiner. "The idea was to stop it becoming a full-blown problem, and Anthony is certainly feeling a lot more comfortable than he was at the weekend. "He'll have a run-out on the training field, and we'll see how he responds and hopefully the news will be good."
