Leeds United head to Molineux this evening to face Wolverhampton Wanderers for a place in the last-16 of the Carabao Cup. The Whites enter the match on the back of successive wins in the Premier League but are expected to make a number of changes ahead of the weekend trip to Tottenham Hotspur; the final match before the World Cup.
Illan Meslier has started every game in all competitions across both this and last season, but could drop out on this occasion with Joel Robles and Kristoffer Klaesson pushing for their first starts for the club. Klaesson was set to start the win over Barnsley in the third round, but injury meant he was unavailable to feature.
In defence it is likely that Luke Ayling will come in for just his second start of the season. Cody Drameh was substituted with half an hour to play for the U21s on Monday and so could be on the bench instead of Rasmus Kristensen, who may be afforded the night off.

Diego Llorente and Junior Firpo could both come into the starting XI in place of Robin Koch and Pascal Struijk, while Leo Hjelde is also expected to start after missing the U21s' win over Newcastle United completely. After Saturday's heroics, Sam Greenwood looks set to start in midfield, though who is chosen to partner him remains up in the air.
Tyler Adams has proved vital for Leeds this season and so could be preserved for Spurs, while Marc Roca may also be given a rest, though he was substituted on 54 minutes against Bournemouth. Darko Gyabi is also inline for his debut following his absence from the U21s.
In the front four, Mateusz Klich looks likely to start in the number 10 position behind Joe Gelhardt, who is almost certain to start given Patrick Bamford's knock. Wilfried Gnonto could also be given his full senior debut for Leeds after his impressive recent cameos, leaving Crysencio Summerville and Jack Harrison to fight it out for the final spot.
Full squad: Joel Robles, Klaesson, Drameh, Ayling, Llorente, Koch, Hjelde, Struijk, Firpo, Gyabi, Greenwood, Roca, Klich, Summerville, Gnonto, Harrison, Perkins, Gelhardt, Rodrigo, Joseph
