Leeds United vs Sheffield United - Clarke closing in on Leeds return for crunch clash
Posted Thursday, March 14, 2019 by PA
Marcelo Bielsa is expected to name an unchanged side for the sixth successive game as Leeds host promotion rivals Sheffield United.
Bielsa has no new injury or suspension worries as the second-placed Whites bid to maintain their push for the Premier League against a side one place and two points behind them.
Teenage winger Jack Clarke could return to the squad for the first time since being sidelined by a virus in early February.
Striker Kemar Roofe and midfielder Adam Forshaw are both edging closer to fitness, but remain unavailable due to respective knee injuries.
The Blades will be without suspended striker Gary Madine, who received a straight red card in Tuesday night’s home win against Brentford.
Otherwise, manager Chris Wilder could choose from an unchanged squad after his players came through unscathed in midweek.
Wilder has confirmed skipper and leading goalscorer Billy Sharp will return to the starting line-up against his former club.
Fellow striker David McGoldrick, winger Mark Duffy and defender Martin Cranie are among those pushing for recalls.
