26 December 2021

Naby Sarr comes in for unwell Levi Colwill

- Huddersfield Town side named to face Blackpool
- Head Coach Carlos Corberán makes one change to the side
- Naby Sarr replaces Levi Colwill, who is unwell

Huddersfield Town Head Coach Carlos Corberán has made one change to the side for today’s Sky Bet Championship game against Blackpool; 3pm kick-off at the John Smith’s Stadium!

Unfortunately, Levi Colwill misses out due to illness today, so Naby Sarr steps in for his first appearance in four games.

Levi’s place in the match day 18 is taken by midfielder Jon Russell, who is a substitute this afternoon.

20-year-old midfielder Scott High makes his 50th career appearance in EFL league and cup competitions today.

Substitute Ollie Turton played 165 times for today’s opponents across four years before making the move to Town this summer.

Alongside Colwill, Corberán is still without Álex Vallejo (knee), Jonathan Hogg (knee) and Rolando Aarons (knee), whilst Fraizer Campbell is currently isolating due to a household COVID-19 contact trace.

Pipa is on the road to recovery and is back in training after his long-term hip issue but is not ready to play just yet.
