Leeds United injury list in full as Jesse Marsch set to make late calls on two key players

Leeds United travel to the Wham Stadium to face League One outfit Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup fourth round on Saturday lunchtime.

The Whites came from two goals behind to draw 2-2 against Cardiff City in the Welsh capital, before condemning them to a 5-2 defeat in the replay at Elland Road.

Stanley, meanwhile, drew 1-1 away from home against Boreham Wood, and narrowly edged the non-league side 1-0 in the replay earlier this week.

Jesse Marsch has a number of injury issues to contend with, and will make late calls on two key first team players. Here is the full Leeds injury list, and potential return dates below...

Liam Cooper - knee

Liam Cooper suffered a knee injury which saw him sidelined for the goalless draw against Brentford, and the Scotsman is still a doubt ahead of the weekend.

Marsch said (Jan 27): "Coops is still a little bit questionable. So we'll see, it'll be more of a matchday decision with them."

Potential return date: 28 January

Tyler Adams - unknown

Marsch revealed that Tyler Adams is a fresh injury doubt ahead of the game against Accrington Stanley, with the Leeds boss set to make a late call on the American midfielder.

Marsch said (Jan 27): "Tyler Adams is a little bit questionable for this weekend. So we'll see, it'll be more of a matchday decision with them."

Potential return date: 28 January

Crysencio Summerville - ankle

Crysencio Summerville suffered an ankle injury in the 2-2 away draw against Cardiff City earlier this month. The FA Cup trip to Accrington Stanley will come too early for the Dutchman, although he is set to return to training next week.

What Marsch said (Jan 27): "Cree Summerville is on the pitch but not yet training with the team but he should be in training by next week and be available for next weekend.

Potential return date: 5 February

Adam Forshaw - hip

Adam Forshaw was withdrawn at half-time in Leeds' goalless draw against Newcastle United on New Year's Eve. The 31-year-old had only just come back from a long spell on the sidelines, and Marsch confirmed after the game that Forshaw was struggling with hip pain.

Marsch said (Jan 20): "It was more of a procedure. He had an injection to help fortify things. He's had a lot of visits to the doctor to figure out why this keeps happening, and one of the things is just strengthening the area."

Possible return date: 18 February

Archie Gray - foot

Archie Gray has been denied the opportunity to break into Marsch's squad due to a toe injury. The teenager fractured his toe after stubbing it at home. Gray impressed during pre-season but has been out of action since September.

Marsch said (Jan 27): "Archie is still out but Archie has been active on the pitch."

Potential return date: 12 February

Stuart Dallas - leg

Stuart Dallas has been out since April last year after suffering a broken leg against Manchester City. The Northern Ireland international has had a third operation on a fractured femur and is still a long-term absentee.

Marsch said (Jan 6): "Stuart had a follow-up operation, too, because they thought they had a little bit of an infection, so they just cleaned that out, but he's back and feeling good."
