Jermaine Pennant makes his Wolves debut while Kevin Doyle also returns to the starting XI for their trip to Huddersfield Town.

Stale Solbakken has handed Jermaine Pennant his Wolverhampton Wanderers debut for the trip to Huddersfield Town this afternoon.

Pennant arrived at Molineux on a three-month loan from Stoke City earlier this week and comes straight into a starting XI showing two changes from the 1-0 win over Blackburn Rovers.

Kevin Doyle has returned to fitness to partner Sylvan Ebanks-Blake in attack, while Kevin Foley switches to right-back in place of the dropped Richard Stearman.

Huddersfield name their own loan duo Jermaine Beckford and James Vaughan up front, but are without defender Joel Lynch because of a shin injury.

Oscar Gobern is a long-term absentee, having been ruled out for a further three months after recent ankle surgery.

Huddersfield: Smithies, Woods, Clarke, Gerrard, Hunt; Norwood, Clayton, Southern, Ward; Vaughan, Beckford

Wolves: Ikeme, Foley, Johnson, Berra, Ward; Pennant, Davis, Doumbia, Sako; Doyle, Ebanks-Blake
