Simon Grayson: Has plenty of options

Huddersfield pair Callum Woods and Scott Arfield are doubtful for the return leg of their side's npower League One play-off semi-final against MK Dons.

Defender Woods (toe) and midfielder Arfield (ankle) were both forced out of Saturday's 2-0 win in the first leg at stadium:mk and could be handed late fitness tests.

Tom Clarke replaced Woods, while Kallum Higginbotham was sent on for Arfield at the weekend and manager Simon Grayson has plenty of options.

Grayson has an otherwise full-strength squad at his disposal apart from long-term absentee Gary Naysmith, who has knee and ankle problems.

Town skipper Peter Clarke is expected to be passed fit despite taking a blow to the head on Saturday and striker Alan Lee is hoping to play a bigger role after stepping off the substitutes' bench for the last six minutes in the first leg. He had been rested for the previous two games following a knee injury.

Luke Chadwick could come back into the reckoning for MK Dons.

Midfielder Chadwick missed the game on Saturday because of a knock he sustained against Walsall on the final day of the regular season.

Chadwick aside, the Dons just have the usual 'bumps and bruises' and Karl Robinson has options should he wish to make changes to his starting XI.

Mathias Doumbe or Tom Flanagan could come into the defence, with James O'Shea an option in midfield and Jabo Ibehre vying for a recall in attack.
