Added incentive for visit of Barnsley

Leeds welcome a Barnsley side who have slumped to 14th in the table since crushing United 5-2 at Oakwell. Leeds have struggled playing on Tuesday nights with a record of P-7 L-4 D-3 W-0, they will be aiming to reward the fans tonight by breaking their Tuesday night duck. Leeds love to provide entertainment. So far this term a staggering 108 goals have been scored in their games, only second to Peterborough (125) in the entire Football League.

Grayson is expected to name an unchanged side, however he may be tempted to hand a start to in-form Davide Somma. Sanchez Watt has recovered from a hamstring injury and he might feature on the bench tonight for United.

Barnsley are without a win in three games and have only recorded one victory in their last five matches. The Tykes have got a good record in Yorkshire derbies this season only losing one in six. Barnsley sold their talisman Adam Hammill to Wolves in the January transfer window, a player that was instrumental in the drubbing given to Grayson's side in September.

Leeds will have added motivation to set the record straight at Elland Road tonight. They will want to wrap up another three points before a huge six-pointer down in Swansea on Saturday.
