Sports Mole previews Saturday's Championship encounter between Huddersfield and Birmingham at the Galpharm Stadium.

Lee Clark returns to his former employers for the first time on Saturday as he takes his Birmingham City side to Huddersfield Town in the Championship.

Clark left the Terriers in the summer after a four-year spell that saw them promoted to England's second tier.

The Blues come into the match four points off the relegation zone having lost their last two league games in a row.

Huddersfield have fared even worse as of late, winning just one of their last 10 league matches, but they sit three points above their opponents in the standings.

Neil Danns could make his debut for the hosts following his loan move from Leicester City.

Nikola Zigic returns from suspension for the visitors, while Marlon King and Peter Lovenkrands could be included following injury problems.

Birmingham: Doyle; Caldwell, Davies, Packwood, Robinson; Burke, Morrison, Gomis, Elliott; Zigic, King

Sports Mole says: 2-2
