Leeds v Wolves - Team News

Leeds going into tonight’s 6 pointer hoping to name an unchanged team. Jermaine Pennant has shaken off a knock and is fit, but Eirik Bakke is struggling and is rated only 50-50.

If the Norwegian fails to recover, Stephen Mcphail is poised to earn a recall. Eddie Grays hands are tied somewhat, with injuries ruling out Duberry, Radebe and Morris. Lamine Sakho and Solamon Olembe are not expected back at the club until later in the week, and David Batty has been told he is surplus to requirements. The only other potential change could see Frazer Richardson being given the right back berth, at the expense of Gary Kelly. If Leeds lose tonight, we are in massive trouble. If teams win their games in hand, we could be 9 points behind safety, but our inferior goal difference effectively makes it 10 points.
