Walsall boss Chris Hutchings welcomes Rhys Weston back from suspension but loses Dwayne Mattis ahead of Leeds' visit to the Banks`s Stadium.

Defender Weston served a one-game ban against Southend at the weekend following his red card in last Tuesday`s Carling Cup defeat at Accrington.

But for the second game in succession, the Saddlers were forced to play a large part of the 2-2 draw against the Shrimpers with 10 men after midfielder Mattis was given his marching orders for a second bookable offence.

Troy Deeney and Sam Parkin are again expected to start up front, despite the best efforts of Alex Nicholls, with the former looking to get off the mark for this season and help create a repeat of last season`s 1-0 home victory over United.

Leeds manager Simon Grayson is expected to name an unchanged side.

United have won all three of their games in league and cup this season and sit joint-top of League One after Saturday's 1-0 win at Wycombe.

Andrew Hughes deputised at left-back at Adams Park in place of hamstring victim Ben Parker and he is set to do so again at the Banks's Stadium, while Neil Kilkenny should again find his bid to regain a starting spot foiled by captain Jonny Howson and on-loan Michael Doyle.

Richard Naylor remains out following a back injury and is not expected to return until September, so Patrick Kisnorbo and Rui Marques will continue at the heart of the defence.

If Grayson does decide to make a change it would likely be a straight swap between Bradley Johnson and Andy Robinson, but little alteration is expected.
