Team News: Leeds United lose strike duo to injury

Leeds lose strikers to injury

Leeds United are without their first-choice forward line of Ross McCormack and Steve Morison for this afternoon's clash with Huddersfield Town due to injury.

Morison is out with a calf problem while McCormack is not risked after suffering a blow to the head.

In come El Hadji Diouf and Habib Habibou to lead the line, while Rudolph Austin also starts ahead of David Norris.

Tom Lees was doubtful with a hip injury but makes the starting XI.

Huddersfield boss Mark Robins makes two changes for the trip to Elland Road, with Danny Ward and James Vaughan taking the place of Lee Novak and Theo Robinson.

Former Leeds striker Jermaine Beckford is fit enough to be named on the substitutes' bench after missing the last 10 games with a hamstring complaint.

Leeds: Kenny, Byram, Peltier, Lees, Warnock, Green, Austin, Tonge, Diouf, Habibou, Varney

Huddersfield: Alex Smithies, Dixon, Norwood, Clarke, Gerrard, Clayton, Gobern, Ward, Vaughan, Danns, Hunt
