KO - 12:00 UK - Elland Road
Leeds boss Kevin Blackwell was giving no clues as to his team selection for the visit of Hull.
Blackwell was relieved none of his players sustained major injuries during the midweek win at Stoke.
``One or two picked up some little niggles, but I'm not prepared to tell you who they are,'' he told PA Sport.
Richard Cresswell is expected to retain his place in a three-man strikeforce alongside David Healy and Robbie Blake with Rob Hulse still struggling with a hip problem.
On-loan midfielder Liam Miller will be hoping to force his way back into the starting line-up after returning to the bench after suspension in midweek.
Gylfi Einarsson remains sidelined following a dislocated shoulder and Frazer Richardson is still struggling with a knee injury.
Hull boss Peter Taylor has not ruled out changes for the eagerly-awaited trip to Elland Road.
The Tigers secured a convincing 2-0 win against Ipswich on Wednesday ahead of their first meeting with their Yorkshire rivals since 1990.
Taylor has no fresh injury or suspension concerns and looks set to continue with the strike pairing of Craig Fagan and Billy Paynter.
Defender Roland Edge remains sidelined with a groin strain, while skipper Ian Ashbee, strikers Ben Burgess and Steve McPhee and defenders Alton Thelwell and Danny Coles all remain long-term absentees.
