Leeds United head into Good Friday's clash with Wigan Athletic looking for a third Sky Bet Championship win in a row.

Team news
Liam Cooper faces a late fitness test after missing last weekend's victory over Sheffield Wednesday. Anthony Pilkington, Gary Roberts, Callum McManaman and Michael Jacobs all missed Wigan's last game through injury.
The key battle
Pontus Jansson v Leon Clarke
Clarke was Sheffield United's top scorer last season with 19 goals. He joined the Latics on loan at the end of the January transfer window, finding the net twice. Leeds defender Jansson will be looking to keep him quiet and earn a third straight clean sheet.
