    He is back! Fit again after six weeks out with a knee injury and Callum Wilson wastes no time in getting on the scoresheet. It was a neat move by Bournemouth with David Brooks feeding Ryan Fraser down the left, his cross-shot is then chested in by Wilson from a yard out!

    Huddersfield 0-0 Bournemouth

    Juninho Bacuna chips in a teasing cross from the right towards Steve Mounie, but the ball drifts over his head and out for a goal kick. Plenty of good ideas from both sides so far, but the execution is letting them down.

    Huddersfield 0-0 Bournemouth

    Joshua King does well to launch a counter-attack by feeding Ryan Fraser down the Bournemouth left. He immediately seeks out Callum Wilson with a first-time cross into the middle, but it is just ahead of the England man and the ball goes out for a goal kick.

    Huddersfield 0-0 Bournemouth

    Philip Billing is fouled by Chris Mepham for a Huddersfield free-kick just outside the area over on the left flank. Aaron Mooy whips it in dangerously but Artur Boruc punches away with both fists.

    Huddersfield 0-0 Bournemouth

    Sloppy play from Mathias Jorgensen, who overhits a backpass out for a Bournemouth corner. The Cherries take it short with the ball eventually falling to David Brooks just inside the area, but he completely slices his half-volley and Huddersfield can clear.

    Huddersfield have enjoyed the early possession in front of a boisterous home crowd, no goalmouth action to speak of though so far.

    Gareth Southgate is due to take in today's match at the John Smith's Stadium. The England manager names his squad next week for upcoming European Championship qualifiers against Czech Republic and Montenegro.

    Callum Wilson is likely to be high on the list of players Southgate will be keen to watch. The 27-year-old scored on his England debut against the United States at Wembley in November.

    Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe:"We're absolutely desperate to resolve our away form. We want that confidence to return to the team and we recognise that our safety isn't secure. This is a big game for us.

    "We're looking up the table right now, but it's no good doing that and not winning games."

  12. Cherries weak on the roadpublished at 14:56 Greenwich Mean Time 9 March 2019

    Huddersfield v Bournemouth (15:00 GMT)

    Bournemouth are currently enduring an unwanted club top-flight record of nine successive away league defeats, conceding at least twice each time, going back to late October. They have had only one longer losing streak in away league fixtures - 12 in a row from December 1933 to August 1934 in the third tier south.

    Huddersfield v Bournemouth (15:00 GMT)

    Huddersfield's weakness has been glaringly obvious this season - a lack of goals. The Terriers have scored just 15 times in their 29 league games so far, the third-lowest tally at this stage in top-flight history. Leicester had 13 goals after 29 games in 1977-78, and Derby had 14 in 2007-08.

    They have also gone 20 home league matches without scoring more than once, a run stretching back to February last year. The opponents that day? Bournemouth and a 4-1 victory for the Yorkshire side.

    Huddersfield XI: Lossl, Bacuna, Billing, Kachunga, Mooy, Pritchard, Mounie, Jorgensen, Schindler, Stankovic, Durm.

    Bournemouth XI: Boruc, Ake, Surman, Lerma, Daniels, Wilson, Smith, King, Brooks, Fraser, Mepham.
