Team News
Leeds United
Leeds will be without injured defender Pontus Jansson after he was forced off during Saturday's defeat at Millwall due to a hamstring injury but fellow centre-half Liam Cooper is expected to return.
Cooper, who missed out at Millwall due to a back injury, could be partnered in central defence by on-loan Everton defender Matthew Pennington, who has been sidelined since damaging ankle ligaments in the opening-day win at Bolton.
Head coach Thomas Christiansen could make several other changes, while goalkeeper Andy Lonergan is hoping for his first Leeds start since rejoining the club in August.

Burnley
Hendrick, who has not played for Burnley in a month, was left out of the squad Dyche took to Anfield at the weekend - despite being considered fully fit following a thigh problem - and could be among the changes made on Tuesday night.

Ex-Whites defender Charlie Taylor may also be involved but striker Chris Wood, another who swapped Leeds for Burnley over the summer, might come out of an XI that will probably include several changes.

Had a great feed tonight on USAgoals. Never missed a beat and it seems it was the ch 5 coverage. Just saw every goal about 10 times from every camera.

Great win guys. Sleep tight.

See you Sat at ER

Promotion bid back on <grin>

Delighted for Hadi Sacko. Shows that he can offer something to this squad - something we don't have without, a turn of pace and direct running. Killed Taylor tonight.
