Leeds United vs Bolton Wanderers - Giuseppe Bellusci back to bolster Leeds

Leeds defender Giuseppe Bellusci will return to contention for the home game against Bolton after suspension.

Bellusci has served a two-game ban and head coach Steve Evans must decide whether to recall the Italian or stick with club skipper Sol Bamba at the heart of defence.

Evans is hoping Stuart Dallas will be available after the winger missed Monday night's 4-0 defeat at Brighton with a knock and defender Scott Wootton will also be assessed as he has an abscess on his heel.

Striker Chris Wood has targeted a return to action at Cardiff next week after a hamstring problem which has ruled him out of the last six matches.

Liam Trotter could be back in Bolton's squad for the trip to Elland Road.

The midfielder has had a hamstring problem that has kept him sidelined for Wanderers' past four games and is the only injured player Neil Lennon is likely to get back soon.

David Wheater (hamstring) remains out, as does first-choice goalkeeper Ben Amos, centre-back Dorian Dervite (both ankle) and striker Max Clayton (hamstring).

Lennon was encouraged by the performance in the 2-1 loss to Burnley last weekend and is unlikely to make too many changes as his relegation-threatened side seek a win in Yorkshire.
