Rui Marques is on international duty this week and will miss the Carling Cup tie at Darlington on Monday.
Marques has been called up for Angola`s midweek friendly in Portugal and joined up with the squad after Saturday`s game with Exeter City.
Defender Marques started the first game of the season alongside Patrick Kisnorbo who as also been called up for Australia in their friendly with the Republic of Ireland.
With Richard Naylor still recovering from back surgery Paul Huntington and Lubomir Michalik are likely to be the central defensive partnership for the Darlington game.
Leeds may also be forced to make a change at left back for the game after Ben Parker was forced off inside the first thirty minutes of Saturday`s game.
