Albion v Huddersfield - from The Amex (From The Argus)

4:53pm

That last tweet came from a bemused Terriers fan.

Apologies, I got a bit behind there for a couple of minutes!

Vaughan's yellow was his tenth of the season and meant a two-game ban - starting against Albion's play-off rivals Middlesbrough in midweek.

Albion sent on Mackail-Smith for Buckley in the 74th minute.

4:29pm

Centre-back Clarke was again Huddersfield's saviour right in front of the visiting fans on 68 minutes - again from David Lopez. The Albion midfielder met a low cross with a perfectly timed right foot drive which was going wide of Smithies but Clarke stuck out a foot to block it a yard or so in front of goal.

Novak replaced Vaughan up front for Town in the 69th minute.

4:25pm

As the pressure continued, David Lopez swung over a great cross from the right but Barnes headed over beyond the far post.

4:25pm

Albion were posing just sporadic threats. But they almost went ahead again in the 62nd minute after good graft from Ulloa. The centre-forward was second favourite to reach Buckley's under-hit low cross ahead of the near post but he got there first and laid the ball off to David Lopez, whose angled drive was cleared off line at the far post by Clarke.

4:17pm

Barnes went on for Dicker moments later - in the 57th minute - and immediately took up a role in support of Ulloa.

4:16pm

Buckley had a chance to run down the right on 56 minutes but had just one target - the distant figure of Ulloa beyond the far post - and was unable to pick him out.

4:11pm

4:09pm

Orlandi was close to atoning for his first-half wasted chance just two minutes after the restart. He helped on Calderon's cross to Ulloa, who headed it back to him. Orlandi then flicked the dropping ball away from a defender and volleyed left-footed on the turn. His effort went wide of Smithies' dive - but just wide of the far post.

4:05pm

Second half is in progress.

Bruno produced a great bit of skill down the right which got Buckley homing in on the penalty area but his low cross failed to pick out a team mate - with Orlandi looking his most likely target near the penalty spot.

3:30pm

3:29pm

Orlandi should have doubled the lead four minutes later when a quickly taken free-kick by Buckley got him in behind his marker Hunt. But, one-on-one with the keeper, Orlandi could not guide the ball beyond Smithies.

3:22pm

David Lopez did exactly the same from the resulting flag kick. This time Buckley got more power on his volley and saw it blocked. But the danger was not over.

3:21pm

When Buckley won a second corner, David Lopez pulled it back to the edge of the box for the winger, whose shot deflected off Clarke's block and over.

3:19pm

David was seeing a lot of the ball in areas just right of centre.

3:19pm

Most of Albion's better work early on involved David Lopez.  He did really well to bring the ball out of defence when Albion cleared a corner and swap passes with Buckley before standing up a cross to the far post. But Buckley could get no real power in his header and Smithies gathered easily.

3:16pm

Buckley made a reasonably promising start. He fed off an Ulloa touch to get to the byline but his cross from a tight angle went straight to the hands of Smithies.

3:11pm

Albion did not settle in the opening minutes. And when a foul on Buckley offered a chance to put the ball into the danger zone, Orlandi's free-kick failed to get past Danns on the edge of the area.

3:09pm

3:08pm

The visitors were looking to close down Albion as they attempted to play out from the back.

3:07pm

Then Hunt's cleverly angled pass from right-back was only inches too long for Vaughan in front of goal.

3:05pm

Huddersfield set up in their anticipated 4-2-3-1 but it soon became clear the wide men in the three would have licence to get forward. Scannell made a terrific break down their left before winning a corner which was headed away at the near post.

3:01pm

Game is now in progress, the teams having changed ends before kick-off.

2:58pm

Calderon is captain of the Seagulls today

2:54pm

2:53pm

Huddersfield make one change - Hunt for Woods at right-back - to the side which ground out a much-needed 1-0 win at Burnley on Tuesday.

2:52pm

You will have seen the key team news. We are told Bridge and Vicente both have minor knocks. The ever-willing Calderon comes in to defence and Will Buckley is not a bad player to bring in to attacking areas is he? Having said that, it's always disappointing when Vicente misses out.

2:44pm

So they made it into the top six. Now can Albion stay there against a Huddersfield side who have suddenly discovered some defensive backbone?
