Leeds are back in League action on Saturday when they visit Burnley.  The Whites will be hoping all their players on International duty return unscathed as they look to build on their impressive 1-0 victory at Leicester last time out.

All been well, Simon Grayson is likely to name an unchanged side, with keeper Andy Lonergan unlikely to be fit following the finger dislocation he suffered 4 weeks ago.  Key man Robert Snodgrass seems to be returning to form, and the midfielder will hopefully come back fit after been away with the Scotland squad.

Up front, Lucciano Becchio will be pushing for a recall, but Andy Keogh continues to form an impressive partnership with fellow striker Ross McCormack - although both players are due a goal or two after a bit of a dip.

At the back, Grayson has his toughest choice to make.  Andy O Brien, out of favour for a while, was very impressive against Leicester, as he stepped in for the suspended Tom Lees - Lees is back in contention again, and will be pushing to partner Paddy Kisnorbo.

It's a lunchtime kick off on Saturday - the game live on BBC1...
