Snodgrass poised to start

Winger Robert Snodgrass is expected to return to Leeds' starting line-up in the home clash against Ipswich.

Snodgrass came off the bench to grab Leeds' equaliser at Crystal Palace last Saturday only two weeks after having an appendix operation and has shown no ill-effects after his quicker-than-expected recovery.

Manager Simon Grayson, who has no new injury or suspension problems, must decide whether to retain Zac Thompson at full-back - the 19-year-old has started the last three matches - while Andros Townsend, on loan from Tottenham, is likely to start his fourth successive match in an unchanged midfield.

Central defender Paddy Kisnorbo is out for the rest of the season with a knee injury sustained in the recent win over Burnley and new signing Robbie Rogers is not yet eligible to play due to outstanding paperwork.

Skipper Jonny Howson, sidelined with a knee injury anyway, will discuss personal terms with Norwich regarding his move after the clubs agreed a transfer fee this week.
