    Leeds Utd v Queens Park Rangers

    Tuesday 5th April 2016 @ 7.45pm

    Streaming links to follow
    Good Morning Everyone,

    Following Silvestri's sending off at Rotherham on Saturday, teenage sensation Bailey Peacock-Farrell is set to make his Leeds debut tonight.

    The 19 year old has earned rave reviews this season, and is tipped to be pushing Silvestri for the number one jersey next season.

    Doukara starts his second of his eight match ban. The lad has to learn you can't go round eating people during a game!

    It will be interesting to see if Evans drops Bellusci after his clanger at the weekend, but with Bamba, the only other option, I doubt Evanswill change the starting line up much.

    Queens Park Rangers will be without defender Clint Hill who has a hamstring strain

    Midfielder Ben Gladwin (knee) could be back in the squad, with Junior Hoilett also pushing for a place

    Leeds have a good record against QPR in recent times, having lost just once in the last five, winning three of them. Goal shy QPR have scored just once during their four last visits to Elland Road. Can Leeds hapless defence keep

    There'll be a minute's silence ahead of tonights game to remember Christopher Loftus & Kevin Speight, 16 years on.

    Morning all..

    Minutes silence thing, not sure how I feel about it.. Great to be remembered but when does it stop? Would it be acceptable in 50 years time to be still doing this? Thoughts anyone??

    It was terrible, will never be forgotten but I think it is time to move on?

    Morning ristac, I understand what you are saying. Does not seem like 16 years ago, does it?

    It doesn't but I can't help feel that there is just a very small wrong reason for the minutes silence. It's like reminding everyone where we were 16 seasons ago and how good we were.

    You can't watch a Leeds game on TV without a commentator mentioning "hard to believe Leeds were in...."

    There must be Leeds supporters killed in tragic circumstances every month, it has to stop somewhere. Again I understand a delicate subject, not denying it was terrible but....

    Can't see my boys getting much out of this. A draw away from home is the most I can hope for. 0-0.

    Morning Shefford,

    This tie terrifies many Leeds fans, we are not a good team. We have just been beaten by Rotherham. We conceded 4 at home v Huddersfield. A few weeks before we let in 4 at Brighton.

    Must admit, I thought QPR would have been challenging for a top 6 come the begining of the season.

    What's happened?

    We have been awful in some games. The losses to MK Dons and Fulham are just two lowlights of our season. Believe me, I can't see us being any threat to you this evening. Poor defending has been our main problem. Without Alex Smithies in goal, the situation would have been a lot worse.

    He was becoming a liability, both in terms of performance and salary. If we had kept playing him, we would have had to fork out a fortune.

    This has got a draw written all of it. Two poor teams on display. I'm hoping we can snatch a 1-0 win.
