Sports Mole looks ahead to Sean O'Driscoll's first game in charge of Bristol City as they travel to Leeds United on Saturday.

Bristol City will begin life under Sean O'Driscoll on Saturday when they travel to Leeds United in the Championship.

The league's bottom-placed side appointed the former Doncaster Rovers boss last weekend following their 4-0 home defeat to Leicester City.

They come up against a promotion-chasing Leeds team who have lost three of their last four Championship matches.

Adam Drury has been ruled out for the hosts with an ankle injury, but they received a boost this week with Luciano Becchio's return to training.

City will have to make do without Stephen McManus after the defender's loan spell from Middlesbrough came to an end on Thursday.
