Celtic completed the signing of Nir Biton on Friday but the Israeli is unlikely to feature at Tannadice.

Manager Neil Lennon may rest a few players after the Champions League heorics against Shakhter Karagandy on Wednesday.

Dundee United manager Jackie McNamara: "It will be a hard game for us. They're very confident from the result the other night and they'll be wanting to stay that way and make sure they impress their manager to be in the Champions league games.

"Concentration is massive, it's so important when you're playing against the best players. You switch off for one set-piece or one moment in a game and the ball is in the back of the net so it's important to do that for 90 minutes.

"In general play at times we are still a wee bit nervy in possession, a bit negative at times.

"But the important thing is we are improving all the time and getting better. We're looking more and more like a team rather than individuals."

Celtic manager Neil Lennon: "It's one thing I would like to improve on; results after Champions League games.

"We were 2-0 down at the weekend (at home to Inverness CT) but fought back to get a great point.

"I think that will be a significant point in the longer term because it shows the players still have the energy to keep going, despite all of their efforts in Kazahkstan a few days earlier.

"Thankfully, the squad looks healthier and that will stand us in good stead."

MATCH FACTS

Head-to-head

• Leeds are defending a nine-match unbeaten record against Queens Park Rangers of six wins and three draws, culminating in the double when last in the Championship together in 2010-11.

• That sequence includes a 6-1 victory for the Whites in this corresponding fixture in November 2004, when Brian Deane scored four times.

• QPR's most recent victory over the West Yorkshire club was 3-1 in the Premier League at Elland Road in September 1995, with a brace from Danny Dichio and a Trevor Sinclair goal.

Leeds United

• The Whites are the lowest-placed of the six clubs still unbeaten in the Championship (W2 D2), but maximum points from this lunchtime kick-off would see them top the second tier, a position they last held in May 1990.

• Victory over QPR will make it Leeds' best start to a league season at this level in 29 years.

• These two clubs are the only ones yet to concede a second-half goal in the Championship, and Leeds have taken an unequalled seven points from losing positions.

Queens Park Rangers

• Though dumped out of the League Cup by League One Swindon in midweek, QPR are unbeaten in the Championship (W3 D1), and will go top should they win or draw.

• Harry Redknapp's side are hoping to complete three successive league victories for the first time since the promotion campaign of 2010-11.

• Three points would also give the Hoops a second away league win, and equal the total they managed in the Premier League last season.
