Struggling Huddersfield take on Harlequins at The Galpharm Stadium on Sunday desperate for a win to end a poor run of form.
The Giants, who beat Quins on both occasions last term, have won only one in six and sit second from bottom of the engage Super League.
To compound their problems, Huddersfield's caretaker coaches Paul Anderson and Keiron Purtill face selection problems.
They must firstly find a new half-back pairing as both Kevin Brown and Luke Robinson are suspended, while captain Chris Thorman is out with an ankle injury.
Tom Hemingway could step into the breach but he may be needed to play at hooker if Ryan Hudson fails to recover from a collar-bone injury.
To make matters worse, the Giants have also lost prop Paul Jackson with an eye injury.
Harlequins news
Daniel Heckenberg is back in the Harlequins squad as the eighth-placed team look to boost their play-off hopes, currently sitting just two points behind Wakefield in sixth.
The prop is back following a three-month absence after dislocating a shoulder in training.
Lamont Bryan and Adam Janowski keep their places after making their debuts in last week's fantastic win over current leaders Leeds.
But the Londoners are still without captain Rob Purdham and winger Rikki Sheriffe.
Huddersfield squad: Aspinwall, Elford, Whaturia, Crabtree, Skandalis, Lolesi, Raleigh, Wild, Jones, Mason, Snitch, Griffin, Hudson, Hemingway, Cudjoe, Lawrence, Jensen, Kirmond, Brown.
Harlequins RL squad: Bryan, Clubb, Grayshon, Haggerty, Heckenberg, Hill, Howell, Janowski, Mbu, McCarthy-Scarsbrook, Melling, Orr, Paul, Randall, Rinaldi, Sharp, Temata, Ward, Worrincy.
