Nahki Wells and Emyr Huws could miss out for Huddersfield against Rotherham

Huddersfield pair Nahki Wells and Emyr Huws are both injury doubts for the home game against Rotherham.

Striker Wells (ankle) and midfielder Huws (hamstring) were both forced out of Saturday's home defeat to Bristol City and will be monitored.

Centre-half Jole Lynch could return to contention after being sidelined since early November due to a hamstring problem, while midfielder Kyle Dempsey and forward Harry Bunn are pushing for recalls.

Midfielder Dean Whitehead remains sidelined with the knee injury that will keep him out for between six to eight weeks as Huddersfield chase their first home win under head coach David Wagner.

Rotherham boss Neil Redfearn has indicated that Leon Best is in line to start up front after serving his three-match suspension.

Best was sent off on his debut at Leeds last month and, while he has not scored a competitive goal for 20 months, could slot straight back in after Redfearn bemoaned his side's finishing in the 1-0 defeat at Blackburn on Friday night.

The Millers are also set to welcome back forward Danny Ward, against his former club, and defender Stephen Kelly.

On-loan defender Farrend Rawson is scheduled to come back before Christmas after undergoing minor surgery on a pubic bone injury.
