TEAM NEWS: FOREST vs TOWN

30 December 2021

Corberán makes two changes to the starting line-up

- Huddersfield Town side named to face Nottingham Forest
- Head Coach Carlos Corberán makes two changes to the side
- Levi Colwill and Ollie Turton both start at the City Ground

Huddersfield Town Head Coach Carlos Corberán has made two changes to the starting line-up for tonight’s Sky Bet Championship game against Nottingham Forest; 7.45pm kick-off at the City Ground.

Tom Lees is following concussion protocol after his injury against Blackpool on Boxing Day, and unfortunately Naby Sarr also misses out this evening due to a back injury.

Levi Colwill comes straight back into the side following the illness that sidelined him for the last game, whilst Ollie Turton also returns for his first start in four matches.

The starting side is otherwise unchanged from the 3-2 win over the Tangerines, but there is a welcome return among the subs today where Pipa is in the match day 18 for the first time following his long-term hip issue. The Spain Under-21 is yet to make a competitive appearance this season, having been an unused substitute just once back in August.

Alongside Lees and Sarr, Corberán is still without Álex Vallejo (knee), Jonathan Hogg (knee), Rolando Aarons (knee) and Fraizer Campbell (isolating due to COVID-19 contact trace in his household).
