Bristol City v Huddersfield preview

Team news ahead of Saturday's Sky Bet Championship clash between Bristol City and Huddersfield

Bristol City are without Korey Smith for their final Sky Bet Championship home game of the season against Huddersfield.

Smith was suspended after being sent off in the 2-2 draw at Blackburn, but the midfielder will now miss the rest of the season following ankle surgery.

Adam Matthews (hamstring) is also definitely out, and fellow defender Aden Flint (knee) might not be risked.

Robins boss Lee Johnson is likely to give a few fringe players an opportunity after his team secured their Championship status last weekend.

Huddersfield midfielder Jonathan Hogg could return to the squad after missing 10 matches due to a knee injury.

Hogg recently returned to full training and is hoping to feature again before the end of the campaign, but head coach David Wagner may opt not to rush him back into action.
