- Huddersfield Town side named to face Middlesbrough
- Head Coach Carlos Corberán makes three changes to the side
- Duane Holmes, Sorba Thomas and Naby Sarr all start

Huddersfield Town Head Coach Carlos Corberán has made three changes to the starting line-up for today’s Sky Bet Championship game against Middlesbrough; 3pm kick-off at the John Smith’s Stadium.

Having missed the last two games with a thigh injury sustained in the away game at Cardiff City earlier this month, Duane Holmes comes straight back into the line-up today at the expense of Josh Koroma.

Naby Sarr and Sorba Thomas, who both started the 1-0 win over West Bromwich Albion here a week ago, also return to the side. As a result, Levi Colwill and Ollie Turton are among the substitutes today.

The starting XI is otherwise unchanged from the midweek game at QPR.

As a result of Duane’s return, Mipo Odubeko drops out of the match day 18.

Corberán is still without Pipa (hip), Álex Vallejo (knee), Jonathan Hogg (knee), Jordan Rhodes (back) and Aaron Rowe (toe).
