Leeds United v Crystal Palace

Leeds pair Rodrigo and Ian Poveda are set to miss the next few weeks because of respective groin and ankle problems.

Crystal Palace top scorer Wilfried Zaha sustained a hamstring injury at Newcastle and has been ruled out.

James McArthur and Joel Ward both face fitness tests over the weekend, but January signing Jean-Philippe Mateta is available and could make his debut.

LAWRO'S PREDICTION

Leeds are always a good watch but they will have to do better on their new pitch than they did against Everton.

I heard it being described afterwards as 'looking like it had been treated with olive oil', which I thought was a great line - but as Leeds manager Marcelo Bielsa said, his players were slipping and Everton's weren't.
