Huddersfield midfielder Philip Billing banned for visit of Ipswich

Huddersfield will be without suspended midfielder Philip Billing for their home game against Ipswich.

Teenager Billing was shown a straight red card for his challenge on Jake Forster-Caskey in last week's 1-1 draw at MK Dons and starts a three-game ban after the club's unsuccessful appeal.

Head coach David Wagner has no new injury worries as his side bid to extend their unbeaten Sky Bet Championship run to four matches.

Midfielder Emyr Huws, who has missed the last four games due to an ankle injury, and winger Sean Scannell (knee), out since early January, remain sidelined.

Ipswich have a doubt over midfielder Luke Hyam, who has been struggling with a hamstring problem after coming off in the midweek defeat against Hull.

On-loan Arsenal midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles is pressing for a recall having been left out of the 18-man squad on Tuesday night.

Cole Skuse has stepped up his rehabilitation as the midfielder targets a return following a toe ligament injury.

However, midfielder Giles Coke remains sidelined with a knee problem, while central defender Piotr Malarczyk, who has had a kidney stone, is also not yet in contention.
