Team News

Huddersfield
Leicester
  • Neil Warnock could hand a start to giant centre-forward Kyle Hudlin this weekend after he scored from the bench in the Carabao Cup against Middlesbrough.
  • Young defender Jaheim Headley was sent off during that game and will miss this weekend's fixture.
  • Enzo Maresca could make just one change to the side that beat Coventry on the opening day of the season with striker Kelechi Iheanacho replacing the experienced Jamie Vardy.
  • Victor Kristiansen, Conor Coady and Alex Smithies are all sidelined for the trip to Yorkshire this weekend.

Prediction

  • Huddersfield look set for another long season battling at the wrong end of the table after losing 3-1 to newly-promoted Plymouth at Home Park on the opening weekend of the season. The Terriers needed a trademark Neil Warnock miracle to keep them up last season, and a similarly heroic effort will be needed this time around.
  • Leicester had central midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall to thank last weekend as his late second-half brace helped the team to overturn a 1-0 home deficit against Midlands rivals Coventry. A comfortable 2-0 midweek win against Burton in the Carabao Cup demonstrated the quality and depth in Enzo Maresca's squad for this season.
