Lowly Bulls welcome entertain inconsistent Leeds

Hereford manager Graham Turner is facing a central defensive dilemma for the visit of Leeds United in their League One clash. First-choice pairing Josh Gowling (ankle) and Dean Beckwith (concussion) did not even make it to half-time in Saturday's crucial 3-2 victory over relegation rivals Cheltenham, while replacement Karl Broadhurst had to come off at the interval due to a dead leg. All three are doubtful for the visit of The Whites, leaving Turner looking towards the emergency loan market for a new arrival to possibly step in. Striker Steve Guinan was suffering with cramp towards the end of the encounter at Whaddon Road but should be okay to feature. On-loan goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi will continue between the sticks with Craig Samson needing surgery on a groin injury. Midfielders Stephen O'Leary (back) and Clint Easton (knee) are also expected to remain sidelined.

Leeds team news

Leeds boss Simon Grayson will be forced into making at least one change to his side for the trip to relegation-threatened Hereford. Midfielder Jonathan Douglas must serve a one-match ban is missing, while Andy Hughes picked up a knock in the defeat at Huddersfield and will face a late fitness test. Skipper Frazer Richardson is still battling with a thigh injury, so if Hughes does not make it, Grayson will have a void to fill at right-back. Jermaine Beckford still has two games to serve of his ban following his elbow on Millwall keeper David Forde, so Luciano Becchio and Lee Trundle are expected to retain their places up front.
