DIEGO Llorente makes just his second Leeds United start in replacing the injured Jamie Shackleton in Tuesday evening's Premier League clash against Southampton at Elland Road.

Shackleton has started United's last two games in the absence of the injured Kalvin Phillips but Shackleton has himself suffered a setback which is believed to be a minor groin issue.

But Spanish international defender Llorente is now back fit and comes back into the side for his full home debut having been an unused substitute in Friday night's 1-0 loss at Wolves.
