Leeds set to ring changes for Rotherham clash
Posted Friday, August 17, 2018 by PA
Leeds are likely to revert back to the same line-up which started at Derby last week for the visit of Rotherham.
Boss Marcelo Bielsa made eight changes for the midweek Carabao Cup win against Bolton after his side won 4-1 in the Sky Bet Championship three days earlier.
The likes of goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell, Barry Douglas, Liam Cooper, Mateusz Klich, Pablo Hernandez and Kemar Roofe are all expected to return to the starting XI.
Striker Patrick Bamford may have to be patient before being handed his first league start, while Adam Forshaw (foot) and Stuart Dallas (thigh) are still out.
Rotherham boss Paul Warne has a decision to make over striker Jamie Proctor.
Proctor scored twice in the Carabao Cup win over Wigan on Tuesday in his first appearance since suffering cruciate ligament damage last August, and Warne must decide whether he is ready for Championship football.
Michael Ihiekwe (illness) and Darren Potter (Achilles) continue to miss out, while a host of players rested for the midweek cup win will be in line for a recall.
New loan signing Ryan Manning, who joined for the season from QPR, will be in contention for a debut.
