Leeds United will be looking to bounce back from Tuesdays horror show at Crewe with a win before yet another International break.

Straight into the squad is new loan signing Liam Miller, and Kevin Blackwell must assess the Man Utd players fitness before deciding whether to partner him with Sean Derry in the midfield. Other choices for Blackwell are who to play wide right, with Fraser Richardson battling with Ian Moore for a starting role, whilst up front, David Healy or Robbie Blake will be hoping to partner Rob Hulse.
There are a few players in the Leeds squad with Preston connections, with Sean Gregan, Healy and Eddie Lewis all former players, whilst the injured Richard Cresswell was the last man to make the move over the Pennines.

Leeds need a win to get them back on track, whilst Preston will be looking to get a win to drive them back up the table.
