Reading trio set to feature against Leeds

Reading hope to have Jordon Mutch, Liam Kelly and Paul McShane back for the visit of fellow Championship promotion hopefuls Leeds.

Kelly and McShane have recovered from hamstring problems which forced them out of international duty with the Republic of Ireland.

Mutch is also available following a hamstring injury, but boss Jaap Stam still has a lengthy list of absentees.

Deniss Rakels (ankle), Tiago Ilori (knee), Callum Harriott (hamstring) and Danzell Gravenberch (ankle) are all out.

Leeds head coach Garry Monk will assess striker Chris Wood, but hopes to have his top goalscorer available.

Wood is doubtful after sustaining a knock during New Zealand's World Cup qualifying win against Fiji on Saturday.

Midfielder Kalvin Phillips is back in contention after serving a two-game ban, but defender Luke Ayling misses out as he completes his two-match suspension.

Sweden defender Pontus Jansson and Northern Ireland winger Stuart Dallas - two of six players on international duty last weekend - are both pushing for recalls to the starting line-up, the former after he was dropped for the recent win against Brighton.
