Sheffield Wed. vs Brighton & Hove Albion - Daniel Pudil set to return for Sheffield Wednesday against Brighton
Posted Friday, September 30, 2016 by PA
Sheffield Wednesday defender Daniel Pudil could return to contention for the home game against Brighton.
Left-back Pudil has missed the last three games due to a thigh injury sustained in the recent home win against Bristol City.
Midfielder Sam Hutchinson will be assessed after being forced out of the midweek win at Blackburn due to a back injury, so Glenn Loovens is on stand-by, while Fernando Forestieri is pushing for a recall to the starting line-up.
Fellow striker Lucas Joao remains doubtful due to a groin problem and goalkeeper Joe Wildsmith is recovering from a dislocated finger.
Brighton welcome back Gaeten Bong from suspension but have lost Dale Stephens to a ban.
Full-back Bong missed the midweek goalless draw at Ipswich, during which midfielder Stephens was dismissed for two bookings.
Midfielder Beram Kayal remains a doubt after sitting out at Portman Road with an ankle injury.
Winger Kazenga LuaLua is still sidelined with a knee problem.
