Huddersfield suffer HUGE injury blow ahead of Saturday’s game – Great news for NUFC

Huddersfield have been dealt a huge blow ahead of our trip to the John Smith’s Stadium on Saturday, with star man Aaron Mooy ruled out of the game. 

The Australian midfielder is undoubtedly their most influential player, playing a huge part in their recent turnaround in form.

Not only will he miss Saturday’s game, he’s also expected to miss up to 6 weeks of action – with him now ruled out of next month’s Asian Cup (an international competition Ki and Muto could yet take place in). 

Blow for them. Boost for us. Big, big player for Huddersfield. https://t.co/FpofMm0j0b

He’s not the only Huddersfield player who looks set to miss out either.

Full-back Tommy Smith is out, holding midfielder Jonathan Hogg is a doubt and record signing Terence Kongolo could also miss out after picking up a ‘knock’ at Arsenal over the weekend:

Four added to the Terriers treatment room. Tommy Smith [hamstring] was stretchered off against Arsenal. Jonathan Hogg suffered a muscular injury while Aaron Mooy and Terence Kongolo both picked up knocks. Huddersfield take on Newcastle at the John Smith's Stadium next w/e. #HTAFC

The bad news is we have Yedlin suspended, with Fernandez also an early doubt after limping off at half time on Saturday, however they really are going to be up against it without their star player and midfield duo.
