Leeds United have received some good news ahead of their matchup against Sunderland, as interim boss Mike Dodds has confirmed that Nazariy Rusyn will be unavailable for the trip to Elland Road.
After a disappointing loss to Coventry City, Daniel Farke’s team will be looking to turn things around at home when they take on the Black Cats on Tuesday (9 April).
The Whites are dealing with some injury concerns of their own, with Ethan Ampadu uncertain to play due to illness. However, there is still hope that he may be able to make an appearance.
Dodds revealed that Rusyn is still a few weeks away from returning to action, while Hume has picked up a minor injury that they are managing. This puts Sunderland in a tough spot as they struggle to find consistent goal scorers in their team.
Despite Leeds potentially missing Ampadu, they still seem to have the upper hand in terms of attacking options compared to Sunderland. With players like Cresswell and Cooper available to step in, the Whites look poised to grab all three points at Elland Road.
