- Darren Moore makes five changes to side that played Hull
- Maxwell, Kasumu, Koroma, Headley, and Harratt start
Huddersfield Town Manager Darren Moore has made five changes to the starting line-up for today’s Sky Bet Championship game against Southampton; 3pm kick-off at the John Smith’s Stadium.
Our second change sees a welcome return for David Kasumu, who hasn’t appeared for nine games due to a hamstring injury. He replaces Ben Wiles, who is unavailable today due to his own hamstring issue.
Josh Koroma is back in the starting side today after a three-game absence with a groin injury. He replaces Rarmani Edmonds-Green, who drops to the bench.
Our fourth change sees Jaheim Headley replace Yuta Nakayama, who returned from international duty with Japan late in the week. Yuta is a substitute today.
Finally, Kian Harratt starts in place of Kyle Hudlin. Sadly, Hudlin misses out today due to a groin injury.
Congratulations to Tom Lees, who is making his 100th Town appearance this afternoon.
There is a boost among the substitutes today, with Delano Burgzorg back after a two-game absence with a knee problem.
Moore is without eight players today; Lee Nicholls (neck), Josh Ruffels (groin), Jack Rudoni (foot), Ollie Turton (knee), Ben Wiles (hamstring), Danny Ward (illness), Pat Jones (hamstring), and Kyle Hudlin (groin).
