Crewe v Leeds - preview


Darren Kenton could start

By Andy Baggott

Leeds boss Dennis Wise has some tough decisions to make ahead of tonight's trip to Gresty Road. With no less than 5 new signings in the last 10 days, the manager will have to try and fit some of the new players straight in to the League One side. Influential defender Rui Marquez is out - on African Nations duty, whilst Jonathon Douglas is out for most of the season. Paul Huntingdon should start at centre half alongside either Matt Heath or new boy Darren Kenton.  Left back is another tough choice, and although youngster Ben Parker did well on his last outing, his place will come under threat.  Another new signing Sweeny can play there, or Andy Hughes could revert to that role if Wise wants to free some room up in the midfield.

Midfield should see the Neil Kilkenny retain his place after his highly impressive debut against Northampton last time out.  David Prutton should also keep his place - then it's a matter of picking two more from a lengthy list.  Andy Hughes can fill the role depending on the left back position.  However, other new boys Bradley Johnson and Seb Sorsa will be pushing for a start along with the fit again Jonny Howson, Westlake (if he shakes of a knock), Seb Carole and Alan Thompson (again, depending on fitness).
Up front, Flo could retain his place at the expense of Tresor Kandol, to partner the supposed in demand Jermaine Beckford.
The game is live on Sky, with a 7.45 kick off.
