- Huddersfield Town side named to face Bristol City
- Head Coach Danny Schofield makes three changes to XI
- Jordan Rhodes starts his first Championship game of 2022/23
Huddersfield Town Head Coach Danny Schofield has made three changes to the starting line-up for tonight’s Sky Bet Championship game at Bristol City; 7.45pm kick-off at Ashton Gate.
Three senior players come into the side this evening, with Jordan Rhodes making his first league start of the campaign as the first change. Danny Ward makes way, and is a substitute this evening.
The other two changes come further back down the pitch, with Jonathan Hogg recovering from his groin injury and Tom Lees returning from suspension. Rarmani Edmonds-Green and Kaine Kesler-Hayden are substitutes tonight.
There’s also a welcome return among the substitutes for Wales Under-21 international winger Pat Jones, who missed Saturday’s 2-2 draw at home to West Bromwich Albion through illness.
Will Boyle misses out tonight with a hip complaint, whilst Ben Jackson and Connor Mahoney drop out of the squad.
Schofield is also without Matty Pearson (foot) and David Kasumu (hamstring).
Goalkeeper Lee Nicholls is making the 300th start of his club career this evening.
