Jack Hobbs could also be fit to face the Tractor Boys after recovering quicker than expected from an ankle injury. Alex Bruce is out for the season.

Leeds United v Sheffield Wednesday

12.30pm

Team news: Skipper Lee Peltier (ankle) is United’s most serious doubt after being injured late on Saturday’s defeat at Charlton and Jason Pearce could be the hosts’ only recognised centre-back today, with Tom Lees serving the final game of a three-match ban. Rudy Austin could switch to the defence with David Norris, Steve Morison and Chris Dawson also doubts. Davide Somma could be involved. For the Owls, boss Dave Jones will run checks over Jermaine Johnson (hamstring), Giles Coke (foot) and Reda Johnson (ankle), who all missed the last-gasp midweek win at Millwall.

Middlesbrough v Brighton

Team news: George Friend (hamstring) is definitely out, with boss Tony Mowbray to assess the fitness of Jonathan Woodgate (concussion), Marvin Emnes (hamstring) and Kieron Dyer. Emmanuel Ledesma (ankle) is set to miss out.

Wolves v Huddersfield Town

Team news: Danny Ward (groin) definitely misses out for Town, whose boss Mark Robins is optimistic Anthony Gerrard (calf) will play, with Jack Hunt (hamstring) also a ‘possible.’ Midfielder Anton Robinson is out for nine months with a serious knee injury sustained during his loan spell at Gillingham.

Team news: Chris Morgan is likely to opt for tactical changes ahead of his first game in charge with the likes of Kyle McFadzean and Darryl Westlake pushing for starts.

League Two

Chesterfield v Bradford City

Team news: Ricky Ravenhill has recovered from a slight injury that left him limping after Tuesday’s win over Bristol Rovers and is available. For Chesterfield, former Barnsley striker Marc Richards is a doubt with a hamstring injury.

Northampton Town v York City

Team news: David McGurk is a major doubt for the trip to Sixfields with a calf problem, which could create an opening for either Chris Doig or Tom Allan. Josh Carson (broken foot) has returned to Ipswich but Michael Coulson could make a first start since October 23.
