Så lenge Stone e skada, vinn vi ikkje denne kampen[8D] Neida, imåra ska vi bryte historia og ta heim tre poeng. Trur Frazer elle Westlake får bekle høgre midtbanerolla.
Carole kommer seff inn på høyre om Stone er skada!
Merker at godeste Blackwell har blitt litt mer offensiv i pre-match intervjuene! Det liker jeg!
KEVIN EXPECTS
United boss Kevin Blackwell is seeking some home comforts when his side take on Cardiff City at Elland Road on Saturday.
Leeds celebrated victory at Elland Road on the opening day of the season, but have picked up just one point from two away fixtures after late goals proved costly.
The manager insists he has been pleased with his side's performances so far, but is looking to turn those efforts into points.
"With no disrespect to Cardiff, I expect us to go out there and win," said the United boss.
"We have reduced numbers, but we have a good squad and I expect a positive result."
United have yet to beat Cardiff since suffering relegation from the Premiership.
The Welshmen recorded their first league win at Elland Road since 1921 when they were 1-0 victors last season and, while the United boss wasn't happy with the performance that day, he is expecting another tough test.
"Last season was one of those days where for whatever reason we just weren't at it," he said.
"We were flat. Credit to Cardiff, but we came back from that and went on a good run.
"It will be tough again tomorrow. Cardiff are a side with top-six potential.
"They've matched and bettered most of the teams in terms of their spending power and brought in some quality players."
Steve Stone (groin) and Eirik Bakke (knee) face late fitness tests ahead of the game, but Geoff Horsfield is absent through suspension.
UNITED (from): Warner, Kelly, Richardson, Butler, Kilgallon, Gregan, Crainey, Stone, Carole, Bakke, Derry, Westlake, Einarsson, Lewis, Healy, Blake, Moore, Beckford.
