Team News: El-Hadji Diouf on Leeds United bench for Sheffield Wednesday clash

Leeds United's El-Hadji Diouf recovers from an infected shin and is named as a substitute for this afternoon's Yorkshire derby against Sheffield Wednesday.

Leeds United forward El-Hadji Diouf has been named as a substitute for this afternoon's Yorkshire derby against Sheffield Wednesday at Elland Road.
