Queens Park Rangers boss Chris Ramsey is hoping a sickness bug which has affected members of his squad will not cause him too many problems when picking a team to face Huddersfield Town.

Midfielder Karl Henry is on red alert as he awaits the birth of his first child.

And striker Jamie Mackie (groin) and defender Yun Suk-Young (knee) are ruled out.

But the Loftus Road boss is hoping to have an otherwise full squad to choose from.

“We haven’t got many injuries to be honest,“ said Ramsey, who can call on ex-Town duo Alex Smithies and Oscar Gobern.

“I’m not sure if Karl will be involved.

“Apart from that, we’ve got a little bit of illness around the place so we’re keeping our fingers crossed that everyone’s okay.

“It’s just the kind of illness that people have at this time of the year when the weather changes, it’s nothing too much.”

Ramsey, whose side suffered a midweek Capital One Cup loss at home to Carlisle United, added: “The medical team have done a really good job in getting people on the field so I’m really pleased with what’s going on.

“The mood has been good.

“When things don’t go well you don’t let that ruin the rest of the week and the season.

“There are going to be games where we’re not going to do so well this season and that applies to all teams.

“It’s about the resilience we have to show.

“Hopefully we’ll go and be able to have a good international break by getting a good result.”
