Jesse Marsch has revealed he has doubts over the fitness of five key first-team players - with three other long-term absentees still sidelined.
Marsch's Leeds United come to Anfield on Saturday evening, winless in their last eight matches and sitting in the bottom three of the Premier League. The American coach has come under increasing pressure regarding his future, with defeats against Leicester City and Fulham in the past week condemning the Whites to another likely relegation scrap.
And to add further to the problems in West Yorkshire, Leeds could be without as many as eight players for Saturday's game. Long-term absentees Stuart Dallas and Adam Forshaw remain sidelined with Leo Hjelde, but Marsch has since revealed that he harbours doubts over the fitness of key quintet Luis Sinisterra, Rodrigo Moreno, Tyler Adams, Joe Gelhardt and Liam Cooper.
