Head coach Steve Evans said he would be making one or two changes despite the midweek home win against Wolves being Leeds' third straight victory.
Versatile winger Lewie Coyle and striker Lee Erwin made rare starts for Leeds on Tuesday night and could make way for Stuart Dallas and Mirco Antenucci respectively.
Midfielder Alex Mowatt serves the final game of his three-match ban, while midfielder Liam Bridcutt and centre-half Giuseppe Bellusci are pushing for recalls to the starting line-up.
