Dave your team looks the most likely.
I think he may rest Howson and play Gradel and then bring Howson back for
the FA Cup when Gradel is unavailable. The Hudders right back - Peltier is a
bag of shite so we need to attack down our left and Snoddy or Gradel will be
the men to do this.
I just worry Roberts will give Crowe a very hard time tomorrow. Capaldi
should be able to cope with Pilkington though. Those 2 and Novak look the
main threats for them.

Subject: [LU] team selection for tomorrow
Grayson (once again ?) faces some tough choices for tomorrows game - a
game where a win turns the league realistically into a 3 horse race with
us holding a big advantage. I can't see Colchester, Bristol or Walsall
pushing us and behind them we already have a 16 point gap and a game in
hand. Huddersfield then at present are our only other realistic
challengers with Norwich and Charlton. It is important therefore that he
gets it right and we keep marching on.
He has the 'big three' of Snoddy, Beckford and Kisnorbo available and I am
sure that he will make room for all of them - he is also quite likely to
bring back Doyle for what is likely to be a physical game, but certainly
Kilkenny should not be dropped after his recent performances, so I expect
Howson to be moved back out to the right.
Who to partner Beckford - Vokes has done Ok as a foil for him without
setting the world alight and has been pretty poor in front of goal.
Becchio on the other hand has shown (at least last season) that he can do
the work for Becks and get his share of goals. plus he has scored both for
the reserves and the first team on his return from injury.
Who to partner Kisnorbo at the back ? If he picks Lubo does Bromby drop to
the bench or go to right back in place of Crowe ?
Have either Gradel (who had a big hand - not in a Thierry Henry kind of
way - in both goals, plus missing an easy chance himself and setting up
Vokes for another great chance on Tuesday) or Ephraim done enough to
warrant a starting place.And what about Prutton ?
Is Hughes anywhere near fit ? What about Higgs ?
Hudds have a good scoring record but do leak goal and their away form is
not great- they did of course win at ER last season.
Whatever it should be a good game for the near sell out crowd and
hopefully the early kick off will help us since we are more used to
changed kick off times.
I expect us to line up
Casper
Crowe, Bromby, Kisnorbo, Capaldi
Howson, Kilkenny, Doyle, Snoddy
Beckford, Vokes
With a strong bench of
Martin, Lubo, Gradel, Ephraim, Prutton, Becchio, Grella
(with Hughes replacing Prutton if Hughes is fit)
Hopefully whether I am right or way off in my expectation whatever team
Grayson puts out will have enough about them to get the 3 points
