Huddersfield Town boss Martin Drury reveals one fresh injury doubt for Exeter City - plus Bojan Radulovic update
HUDDERSFIELD Town head coach Martin Drury has confirmed that in-form wing-back Ilias Bronkhorst is a doubt for Saturday's FA Cup tie against League Two outfit Exeter City at the Accu Stadium.
The Dutchman has picked up a slight hip issue and Town may elect to err on the side of caution for the first-round cup meeting with the Grecians, managed by ex-Rotherham United chief Matt Taylor.
Striker Bojan Radulovic, who has missed the past four games with a hamstring problem, may be involved.
Captain Ryan Ledson is back from a three-game suspension after being found guilty by the FA of misconduct and he is in contention.
The former Preston player was sidelined with a shoulder problem prior to his ban and has not been involved at first-team level since the League One game at Mansfield Town on September 12.
Drury said: "There's only probably one (fresh) concern.
"It's Ilias Bronkhorst, who's just got a slight niggle in his hip. So, if he doesn't play tomorrow, that would be precautionary than anything else. In terms of everybody else from Tuesday night (against Luton), everybody came through fine.
"Obviously, Ryan Ledson's suspension has finished, so he'll be back available. Bojan has trained. If he's not involved tomorrow, he will be involved on Tuesday (in the EFL Trophy against Liverpool under-21s). He's pushing.
"There's potential for him to be available tomorrow as well. And everybody else is unscathed from Tuesday night and we are in a decent place."
On whether he will make significant changes, Drury continued: "I wouldn't say significant. I think we'll make some changes. But, again, it's a competition to progress in and to do well in.
"There's an opportunity for some players not to play and an opportunity for other players to play. But at the same time, I won't be doing it just to hand game time out to people, that's not the way we work."
