Brighton injury list as Leeds United fight relegation

Brighton travel to Elland road on Sunday for Leeds United's final home game of the Premier League season. A few weeks ago, it was hoped that Leeds' Premier League survival would be secured before the game, reducing the tension and allowing Whites fans to enjoy the final game of the season without the stress of relegation hanging in the air.

However, Burnley's revival changed the picture dramatically and instead of being safe, Jesse Marsch's side go into the game in the bottom three, knowing that they need to take points from it in order to put pressure back onto Burnley for the final fixtures. Brighton will prove a tough opponent as they are in excellent form and Leeds have only picked up one point against them in their three games since returning to the Premier League.

Whilst Leeds' squad is decimated by injuries and suspensions, Graham Potter's side are not far from full strength. The Brighton manager has all but three of his squad to call upon. Below are the unavailable players:

Enock Mwepu

The midfielder - who joined the club from Red Bull Salzburg and played for Marsch during his time there - is out of action due to a groin injury. Potter confirmed he had trained a little with the group, but was not considered ready for selection to face Leeds.

Jakub Moder

The Polish international midfielder has been out of action since April with an ACL injury, ruling him out for the rest of the season.

Jeremy Sarmiento

The youngster has not been a key player for Brighton but he has been an option from the bench this season. He has a hamstring injury which Potter stated he was 'making progress' with but won't be in contention for Sunday's game.
