No changes expected for United

Leeds manager Simon Grayson is expected to choose from an unchanged squad for Tuesday night's clash at Bristol Rovers.

Leeds came through their first league defeat of the season unscathed at Millwall on Saturday, but Grayson is still without five first-team players.

Shane Higgs faces an extended spell in the treatment room after suffering a recurrence of his thigh injury in last week's win over Norwich, so Casper Ankergren will continue in goal.

Luciano Becchio remains sidelined with an ankle injury, leaving on-loan Sam Vokes to continue his partnership with Jermaine Beckford up front and both Ben Parker and Andy Robinson are nursing hamstring injuries.

Rui Marques (Achilles) is still out, but Grayson is not short on central defensive cover, while the Leeds boss must decide whether to retain Leigh Bromby at right-back or recall Jason Crowe.
