Leeds United boss Jesse Marsch has a strong squad available to utilise for the Whites third round FA Cup clash against Cardiff City.
The Whites travel to the Cardiff City Stadium on Sunday afternoon keen to avoid being on the end of a Premier League giant killing. The FA Cup has not been a fruitful competition for Leeds in their recent history, with the Whites having been knocked out at the third round stage for the last five seasons.
While Marsch will be without Patrick Bamford, Adam Forshaw, Luis Sinisterra and Stuart Dallas for the trip to Cardiff, he could be set to hand new signing Maximilian Wober his Whites debut.

Wober arrived at Elland Road earlier this week from Red Bull Salzburg, with Marsch claiming the Austrian defender would be "in the mix" to feature against the Bluebirds on Sunday.
With the Whites having been eliminated from the Carabao Cup in November by Wolves, the FA Cup is a competition Marsch is keen to utilise in building momentum for Leeds' second half of the season campaign.
Against Wolves, Leeds fielded a relatively youthful team, in order to rest their other players for their final pre-World Cup Premier League game with Tottenham Hotspur.
However, Marsch will likely look to field a much stronger team this time around against Cardiff, as Leeds look to book their spot in the fourth round of the FA Cup for the first time since 2017.
Full Leeds United squad to face Cardiff City: Illan Meslier, Joel Robles, Luke Ayling, Pascal Struijk, Junior Firpo, Rasmus Kristensen, Diego Llorente, Robin Koch, Liam Cooper, Max Wober, Marc Roca, Tyler Adams, Darko Gyabi, Sam Greenwood, Brenden Aaronson, Wilfried Gnonto, Crysencio Summerville, Jack Harrison, Joe Gelhardt, Rodrigo
