Javi Gracia’s Leeds United will be missing two first-team players for their relegation showdown with Crystal Palace.
Javi Gracia, the manager of Leeds United, will be missing Max Wober and Tyler Adams for his team’s critical Premier League match against Crystal Palace.
Leeds will try to make it back-to-back wins against relegation rivals when they face Palace at Elland Road. The Whites moved up to 13th in the table with a 2-1 win against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night, and they will move up another spot if they win all three points again against the Eagles.
Roy Hodgson’s side suffered a huge injury setback during their 2-1 win over Leicester City as Wilfried Zaha was forced off before halftime. The Ivory Coast international, along with shot-stopper Vicente Guaita, will now miss his team’s journey to Elland Road.
The Whites have their own fitness problems, and although Gracia remained tight-lipped when asked for an update, both Wober and Adams will not play for the Spaniard on Saturday. Wilfried Gnonto was an unused substitute in the win over Forest, and it is unclear whether he will start for Leeds this weekend.
Rodrigo came on for the final 15 minutes on Tuesday night, but he is yet to make his first appearance after returning from injury.
Full Leeds United squad to face Crystal Palace: Illan Meslier, Joel Robles, Kristoffer Klaesson, Luke Ayling, Junior Firpo, Rasmus Kristensen, Robin Koch, Liam Cooper, Marc Roca, Weston McKennie, Darko Gyabi, Sam Greenwood, Archie Gray, Brenden Aaronson, Wilfried Gnonto, Jack Harrison, Luis Sinisterra, Crysencio Summerville, Sonny Perkins, Patrick Bamford, Georginio Rutter, Rodrigo
