Team News
Leeds United
Caleb Ekuban [foot] and Pablo Hernandez [hip] are injury concerns for Leeds.
Souleymane Doukara remains available despite reports linking him with a move away from Elland Road but Chris Wood has joined Burnley.
Centre-half Matthew Pennington (ankle) and right-back Gaetano Berardi (shoulder) are both still out.
Newport
Ben Tozer could be in line for his first appearance since January after finally overcoming a knee injury.
Defender Scot Bennett is also in contention after shaking off an ankle injury to feature in the final quarter at Coventry.
Shawn McCoulsky, County's two-goal hero at Southend in the last round, could return to the starting line-up, but fellow striker Marlon Jackson remains out with a hamstring injury.

Not sure if it's worth putting these links up anymore as the powers that be are blocking most streams
A hat-trick from Samu Saiz helped Leeds past another fourth-tier side, Port Vale, in the first round, while Newport won at League One Southend.
The Welsh club had to play their second-round tie away from home as their pitch at Rodney Parade is being re-laid, but Leeds are sharing the gate.
So a tie against a L2 side at Home should hopefully see us progress
But as the saying goes " Footballs a funny old game" in theory a win for Leeds but Newport will be out there looking to take a big scalp .
I'm going for a 3-1 scoreline with Roofey x2 and Viera and getting our goals........................
Everyone confident are we ??................................................................ Over to You................................................

Anyway, pretty chuffed with that, the Championship teams will be taking note and getting a bit wary of this Leeds Side fair bit of quality and the usual phenomenal Fans will have them worried
Lose the star striker and rattle in 5 goals
