Leeds United manager Brian McDermott is under pressure to overturn a disastrous run of form that has seen the Yorkshire outfit lose their last five games.

McDermott's side have also failed to score in their last three fixtures and currently sit six points from the playoffs.

Ipswich Town have endured a similar run of results to that of their hosts, but the Tractor Boys travel to Elland Road on the back of a morale-boosting 2-0 win over Reading.

Boss Mick McCarthy could hand a start to Paul Anderson after he came off the bench to score against the Royals at Portman Road.
