KO - 15:00 UK - The Walkers Stadium
Leicester manager Rob Kelly is sweating on the fitness of goalkeeper Rab Douglas heading into the home clash with Leeds.
Douglas sustained a thigh strain during the 2-2 midweek draw with Derby and was replaced by Paul Henderson who is expected to deputise once again.
Meanwhile, Conrad Logan has been recalled from his loan spell at Boston to provide extra goalkeeping cover.
Midfielder Gareth Williams is pushing for a recall after bouncing back from illness, while Danny Tiatto could also be involved after recovering from hamstring trouble.
James Wesolowski is expected to miss the remainder of the season, though, after suffering his second leg-break in seven months, and Lee Morris remains short of match fitness despite recovering from knee cartilage surgery.
Leeds will have to wait yet another week to see Joel Griffiths in action after it became clear the midfielder would not be in the country when the team travel to Leicester.
The 27-year-old has endured a tortuous transfer from Swiss club Neuchatel Xamax - who originally refused to release the player's international clearance - and has been in Australia this week arranging a visa.
He is now due to begin training with Kevin Blackwell's side next week.
Shaun Derry sits out the first of a two match ban after collecting his tenth caution of the season so Eirik Bakke (hamstring) has an outside chance of making the squad for the first time since returning from Aston Villa.
Richard Cresswell, meanwhile, looks likely to play on despite a knee complaint after suffering no ill effects from his cameo against Watford in midweek.
