IAN Marshall is struggling to be fit for Saturday's home game against Crystal Palace after missing Wanderers' defeat at Watford with a groin strain.

The versatile veteran had been lined up to continue up front in the absence of Dean Holdsworth who is also a doubt for Saturday as he continues to receive treatment for a groin and hamstring strain.

Wanderers Reserves are in action tonight against Oldham at Hilton Park but will not be giving Leeds teenage defender Damien Lynch a run out. He's back at Elland Road after an unsuccessful trial.
