Preview: Leeds United vs. Wigan Athletic

Leeds vs. Wigan

Both Leeds United and Wigan Athletic will be looking to recover from losses at the weekend when they meet at Elland Road tomorrow night.

Leeds had their winning run ended at Blackburn Rovers while Wigan's stuttering form continued as they were beaten comprehensively at home by Derby, a result that saw manager Owen Coyle sacked.

Leeds boss Brian McDermott will still be without Scott Wootton and Dexter Blackstock but may be able to welcome back Sam Byram on the right.

First-team coach Graham Barrow is in charge tomorrow night and may bring back Scott Carson in goal ahead of youngster Lee Nicholls.

The other toughest decision for Barrow will be whether to start Grant Holt or Manchester United loanee Will Keane up front.
