Match Preview
Lees back in Whites frame El Hadji Diouf is expected to be included in Leeds' squad for their opening game against Wolves at Elland Road. The former Liverpool and Blackburn striker recently signed on a non-contract basis and appeared as a second-half substitute in last weekend's Capital One Cup win over Shrewsbury. Leeds boss Neil Warnock is hoping to talk to the Senegal international's agent on Monday about a possible longer-term deal with the club. Warnock is also hoping central defender Tom Lees, who missed out last weekend due to a groin injury, will return to fitness in time. Midfielder David Norris is expected to shake off a minor knock, while striker Ross McCormack and Aidy White have reported back fully fit following international duty with Scotland and the Republic of Ireland Under-21s respectively. New signings Paddy Kenny, Lee Peltier, Jason Pearce, Paul Green, Luke Varney, Rodolph Austin, David Norris and Adam Drury are all hoping to make their league debuts for the club. Wolves manager Stale Solbakken is set to include wantaway winger Matt Jarvis in his squad. Wanderers rejected a #6.5million offer for Jarvis from West Ham earlier this week and Solbakken insists the 26-year-old will be involved at Elland Road. However, there is no place in the squad for striker Steven Fletcher, who is a long-term transfer target for Sunderland, with the striker missing out due to an ankle injury. New signing Danny Batth could make his debut after joining from Sheffield Wednesday in the summer and loanee Tongo Doumbia looks set to retain his place from last weekend's Capital One Cup victory over Aldershot. Wolves required penalties to dispatch the League Two club and Solbakken will be hoping for an improved performance.
