Team News: Leeds United defender Liam Cooper passed fit to face Rotherham United

Leeds United defender Liam Cooper has been passed fit to start against Rotherham United in the Championship this afternoon.

The centre-back was a doubt after being stretchered off with a head injury during the Whites' 3-0 win over Huddersfield Town last time out.

Leeds have stuck with the same side that hammered Huddersfield, but Tom Adeyemi returns to the squad, starting on the bench.

Rotherham have handed a start to new defensive signing Stephen Kelly, while captain Lee Frecklington starts after overcoming a calf injury.

Striker Leon Best earns a recall and Richie Smallwood takes up a spot in the Millers' midfield.

Leeds United: Silvestri; Wootton, Bellusci, Cooper, Berardi; Dallas, Cook, Murphy, Mowatt; Antenucci, Wood Subs: Horton, Byram, Adeyemi, Buckley, Botaka, Erwin, Doukara

Rotherham United: Camp; Buxton, Kelly, Broadfoot, Mattock; G Ward, Smallwood, Frecklington, Newell; Clarke-Harris, Best Subs: Collin, Collins, D Ward, Andreu, Barker, Derbyshire, Toffolo
