Huddersfield Town boss Chris Powell believes that they need to improve their defensive record if they are to continue to improve in the Championship.

The Terriers have recorded back-to-back wins against Millwall and Wolverhampton Wanderers to move up to 18th place in the standings, but Powell is keen to see his team add to their solitary shutout of the season.

The 45-year-old is quoted by the Huddersfield Daily Examier as saying: "Clean sheets are so important, and keeping one is a big target for us.

"We have shown we have the firepower and the creativity. By keeping clean sheets, we guarantee at least one point and give ourselves a great chance of three."

Huddersfield travel to Ewood Park to play Blackburn Rovers on Saturday afternoon.
