Leeds United will be travelling to Selhurst Park this weekend to face Crystal Palace but will have numerous players missing, either through injury or suspension.
The Whites boss Jesse Marsch will have decisions to make all across the pitch especially in defence with players like Liam Cooper and Luke Ayling recent returners from injury.
Here is the full list of injuries that Leeds are currently soldiering and when they could possibly return to action as well as any suspensions carrying over into this game.
Luis Sinisterra - Suspended
Sent off after blocking an Aston Villa free kick last weekend, Sinisterra is set to miss the Palace match but will return for the match next weekend against Arsenal.
Marsch said (Oct 7): "Yeah, I mean, first of all, we feel like Crysencio Summerville is in his best form since I've been here. So, he certainly becomes a factor from the start or off the bench.
"We've had moments where Patrick [Bamford] and Rodrigo have both been healthy, looked at both of them on the pitch together. Having Willy [Gnonto] here, we want to find ways to get him going and for me, Joffy [Gelhardt] made a fantastic point to his manager in the Tranmere game, that he should not be left out of the squad.
"I thought he played really well and he was very dangerous. Joffy will be a factor in this game as well. We still have some attacking prowess but we'll miss Luis [Sinisterra] that's the reality."
Return date: 16/10/2022
Archie Gray - Toe
In an unfortunate turn of events for the Leeds senior team's youngest player, Gray suffered a fractured toe after stubbing it at home and has missed out on training over the past few weeks.
Marsch said (Oct 7): "Archie is healing well hopefully, out of a boot and will start training soon as well."
Potential return date: 23/10/2022
Adam Forshaw - Ankle
Marsch told the media last week that Forshaw had "twisted his ankle" and would be out for a week but the situation seems to have developed much more than just a simple twist.
Marsch said (Oct 7): "Forshaw had surgery yesterday and he'll be out for about a month, but they feel good about the procedure and hopefully he'll be back soon."
Potential return date: 07/11/2022
Junior Firpo - Knee
Having returned to training in late August, Junior Firpo will be hoping to be back as soon as possible to take his place in Marsch's starting XI back. He suffered a knee injury in July's 4-0 pre-season win against Blackpool, with Pascal Struijk having filled in at left-back while the Dominican is injured.
Marsch said (Oct 7): "I think you know, first of all, we're still trying to get Junior fully healthy and fit and everything and the nice part is that Pascal has played so well in that position.
"I think Pascal has been one of our best players at the start of the season and it's allowed us to be more patient and try to get Junior physically and physically right so that he can perform at a high level."
Potential return date: 16/10/2022
Leo Hjelde - Appendicitis
Hjelde is set for a spell on the sidelines after going to hospital with appendicitis earlier this week which required surgery. The 19-year-old arrived from Celtic in 2021 and has played two senior appearances for the club so far.
Marsch said (Oct 7): "Leo Hjelde had an appendectomy two days ago so he was in the hospital. He's at home now and they think that might take a few weeks. Everyone else is ready to go."
Potential return date: 30/10/2022
Stuart Dallas - Leg
Stuart Dallas suffered a fractured femur after a 50/50 challenge with Manchester City winger Jack Grealish back in April's 4-0 loss and was officially ruled out for six months.
Marsch said (Oct 7): "Stuart had a procedure done this week, and then he had another visit to the doctor and they think he's doing really well, really well. So we're all optimistic and that this procedure will help him I'd still say he's a couple months away from being on the pitch but he's moving really well in the right direction."
Potential return date: Unknown
