Leeds United will have a full week to prepare for their upcoming match against Derby County on Saturday. However, they will be without four players and have doubts over three more.
After a disappointing 1-0 loss to Blackburn Rovers, Leeds have fallen out of the Championship’s automatic promotion spots. They now have a free mid-week before facing Derby at Elland Road.
Derby, on the other hand, suffered a 2-1 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday, with key player Ebou Adams picking up his fifth booking of the season and ruling him out of the match against Leeds. Additionally, Ryan Nyambe continues to be sidelined with a knee injury.
For Leeds, Sam Byram is a doubt with a hamstring issue, while Isaac Schmidt is recovering from hernia surgery. David Ozoh is also a doubt for Derby after sustaining injuries.
Joe Rodon and Willy Gnonto are walking a tightrope with four yellow cards each, needing to be cautious against Derby to avoid suspension.
Both teams will need to navigate through their injury concerns and suspensions as they prepare for what promises to be a crucial match for their Championship aspirations.
