Leeds v Peterborough preview

Team news ahead of Saturday's Championship clash between Leeds and Peterborough at Elland Road.

Leeds midfielder Adam Clayton is back in contention for the hosts.

Clayton has missed the last two matches after reaching 10 yellow cards this season, but is likely to feature against Posh for Neil Warnock's side.

Teenage defender Zac Thompson serves the second game of his three-match ban following his recent dismissal at Reading and midfielder Michael Brown starts his three-game suspension after he was sent off in Monday's home defeat to Derby.

Warnock has hinted at another possible start for striker Ramon Nunez and could also make several other changes as he contemplates who to retain in his squad for next season.

Leeds have slipped to 14th place in the table, eight points adrift of the play-offs, after three straight defeats and have yet to win at Elland Road under Warnock.

Emile Sinclair is an injury concern for Peterborough after twisting an ankle after just 16 minutes against Nottingham Forest on Monday.

Captain Grant McCann also suffered an ankle injury in the closing stages of that 1-0 defeat but the midfielder is expected to be fit.

Striker Tyrone Barnett should have recovered from the hamstring problem that has seen him miss the last two matches.

Posh can secure their Championship status at Elland Road on Saturday. Darren Ferguson's side will guarantee themselves a second successive season in the second tier if they better Coventry's result at Burnley.

Posh go into the game nine points ahead of the third-from-bottom Sky Blues with four games remaining.
