It is understood that the Spain international is struggling with 'tiredness and a back problem'.
The 25-year-old put in a poor performance in the 1-0 defeat to West Ham on Saturday and did not make any impact in the match after coming into the game having reportedly been ill during the week.
Already, Antonio Conte confirmed that the striker will not be in the squad to take on the Terriers at the John Smith's Stadium and that he will have to go with other options up front.
Meanwhile, Danny Drinkwater will be in the matchday squad having returned from his illness, but David Luiz is still struggling to return from his knee injury.
"Morata is out, because he’s a bit tired and there is a problem in his back. He is out." Conte confirmed.
