One to Watch

Sorba Thomas

Twenty-four-year-old Thomas is looking to make his mark again after returning to the Terriers from a loan with Blackburn Rovers last season.

The winger has started every league game for Huddersfield Town this season, and forced the opener against Middlesbrough with a fierce corner that resulted in an own goal.

The Manager

Neil Warnock

A manager needing very little introduction to supporters in English football, Neil Warnock's career stretches back to the early 1980s when his playing days came to a close.

His managerial CV boasts clubs such as Leeds United, Sheffield United, Middlesbrough, and Cardiff City, and his achievements include a title win and promotion to the Premier League with Queens Park Rangers in 2010/11 (alongside also-promoted Norwich City).

Warnock returned to Huddersfield Town in February, nearly 30 years after his initial spell as manager, guiding the Terriers to safety and another season in the Sky Bet Championship.

Last Time Out

Norwich City and Huddersfield Town played out a 1-1 draw in March in the Sky Bet Championship, with Gabriel Sara on the scoresheet for the Canaries at the John Smith's Stadium.

Ref Watch

Dean Whitestone has been appointed as the referee this weekend, while Daniel Leach and Paul Hodskinson will be assistant referees. Leigh Doughty is the fourth official.
