TEAM NEWS

Leeds United head coach Uwe Rosler will assess midfielder Alex Mowatt before deciding on his line-up to face Ipswich. The young midfielder had been struggling with an unspecified injury ahead of Saturday's home draw against Brentford and was withdrawn at half-time, with goalscorer Mirco Antenucci replacing him.

New recruit Jordan Botaka played the full 90 minutes for the Under-21s fixture against Bristol City today so may not be included, but assistant head coach Rob Kelly stated he may still feature.


Rosler has no new injury concerns as midfielder Tommaso Bianchi remains absent following knee surgery.


Ipswich boss Mick McCarthy must decide whether or not to change his team after Friday's 5-1 defeat at Reading.


McCarthy confirmed that Freddie Sears has a tight hamstring and will be looked at ahead of the game and he remains the only injury worry. 
He also confirmed that Dean Gerken will remain be in goal against Leeds.

Daryl Murphy is now fully fit and could start at Elland Road after returning from injury as a substitute at Reading.
