The 4 players Leeds United will be without for Chelsea clash amid Patrick Bamford injury update

Leeds United have a few more injury woes to contend with ahead of their gameweek 3 clash against Chelsea in the 2022/23 Premier League.

Both clubs have started the season fairly well with the pair winning one and drawing one each. The Yorkshire-based club won their first game against Wolves whilst they relinquished points from a winning position against Southampton in gameweek 2. Meanwhile, the Blues had edged Everton by a one-goal margin in gameweek 1 whilst they were controversially denied three points by VAR and Anthony Taylor in the most recent London derby against Tottenham.

Ahead of this clash, both Mateo Kovacic and N'Golo Kante are expected to be out of contention, although there is a slight chance the Croatian could be fit enough for a bench place at the very least. Thankfully, the west Londoners are not suffering from as many injuries in comparison to their hosts for this contest. Jesse Marsch, who is speaking to the press on Friday at a similar time to Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel, is expected to reaffirm that four players are still out of contention.
