Town will be looking to bounce back from their first home defeat of the season when they travel to Leyton Orient on Saturday; kick-off 3pm at the Matchroom Stadium.

The Terriers are still in seventh position in the League One ladder and will face an Orient side who have won only one of their last eight games and currently sit 14^th in the League One table. However, Orient will feel they have turned a corner - that solitary win came over Walsall came last weekend.

FORM

The O's are undefeated in their last six outings at Brisbane Road, picking up a total of 12 points along the way. Such an impressive run has seen Orient move up two places in the League from 16^th to 14^th. However, as they sit eight points above the relegation zone and a long way off the Play-Offs, Geraint Williams' men will be looking to take stock ahead of the next campaign.

PAST MEETINGS

In total, there has been 57 meetings between the two sides of which Town have claimed victory on 22 occasions, Orient on 19 while there have been 16 stalemates between the pair.

There have been 28 meetings at Brisbane Road where the home side hold a significant advantage with 17 wins to their name. The Terriers have claimed victory on seven visits to East London while there have been four draws.

The last meeting between the two sides came at the Galpharm back in October and saw Lee Clark's men run out 4-0 victors. A first-half strike from Gary Roberts was followed up with second-half additions from Nathan Clarke, Michael Collins and Jordan Rhodes to send the majority of the 13,396 gate home happy.

The last game at the Matchroom Stadium came on the final day of last season and was an historic day for Town fans - it was the final time that current Club Ambassador Andy Booth pulled on the blue and white striped shirt of Huddersfield Town. In a fairytale scenario Boothy scored the opening goal of the game - his 150^th for the Club - but a second half strike from Dean Morgan ensured the game ended in stalemate.

INS AND OUTS

Since our last meeting with the O's, they have made two additions to their squad with manager Geraint Williams active during January.

Those to join were 25-year old French striker, and former Town trialist, Jonathan Tehoue on a free transfer from Turkish side Konyaspor, and young Irish midfielder Aaron Doran, who joined on a month's loan from Premier League outfit Blackburn Rovers.

Meanwhile, impressive Tottenham loanee Andros Townsend has returned to White Hart Lane at the conclusion of his loan spell.

TEAM NEWS - TOWN

Lee Clark will be missing a couple of strikers this weekend, with Liverpool loanee Nathan Eccleston serving the second game of his three match ban and Lee Novak out for at least a fortnight with a knee injury picked up against Norwich City last weekend. Robbie Simpson has also been struggling with a thigh problem in recent weeks, so Theo Robinson could receive the call to partner Jordan Rhodes in attack.

TEAM NEWS - LEYTON ORIENT

Glenn Morris again looks set to deputise in goal for the injured Jamie Jones who has a back problem. Meanwhile, Scott McGleish, Ben Chorley and Sean Thornton also look set to retain their places in the side following their victory over Walsall last time out.

ONE TO WATCH - SCOTT McGLEISH

Veteran striker McGleish is in his first full season at Brisbane Road and has most certainly made an impact. After hitting five goals during a 15 game loan spell last year, McGleish has continued where he left off this term, hitting 11 goals in 37 appearances.

The 36-year old has featured for no less than eight league sides during a career which currently spans 16 years and has seen him hit almost 200 goals.

While the Barnet-born forward will not test the Town rearguard for pace, they will still have to be on top of their games if they wish to keep the experienced hitman at bay this weekend.
