Leeds
- John Eustace could make just one change to the starting XI that faced Swansea on the opening weekend with Juninho Bacuna starting off the back of his midweek Carabao Cup brace.
- Young midfielder George Hall is the home side's only injury concern ahead of Saturday's fixture.
- Leeds boss Daniel Farke will be without centre-back and club captain Liam Cooper for the next two months after he suffered an injury on the opening day, so Charle Cresswell will deputise for the time being.
- Italian striker Willy Gnonto's future remains up in the air but he should retain his place in the starting XI for another week.
Willy Gnonto is not happy with Leeds for not selling him to Everton and he is refusing to play.
