Rochdale vs Huddersfield Town - Rochdale's injury list grows ahead of cup clash

Posted Friday, January 27, 2017 by PA

Rochdale boss Keith Hill has a lengthy injury list to contend with for his side's FA Cup fifth-round clash with Huddersfield at Spotland.

Hill is still without Steve Davies, Josh Lillis, Matty Lund, Joe Thompson, Ollie Rathbone and Joe Bunney - all of whom missed last week's 4-0 home defeat to Oxford.

But Keith Keane is set to make a timely return after serving a suspension for his recent sending-off at Southend.

And midfielder Peter Vincenti should also feature after overcoming an ankle problem and playing half the game as a substitute last week.

Huddersfield manager David Wagner hopes to have defender Chris Lowe and midfielder Rajiv van la Parra available for the trip.

The pair were ill during the week but will train ahead of the trip, while Aaron Mooy is also back in training after missing last week's victory over Ipswich with a back injury.

German forward Collin Quaner could make his debut for the club after receiving international clearance following his move from Bundesliga II side Union Berlin.

However, striker Joe Lolley is unavailable as he undertakes some pre-planned fitness work following the foot injury which kept him out for several months earlier in the season.
