Marcelo Bielsa is expected to be without just three members of his Leeds United squad for today’s clash with Manchester City.
Adam Forshaw and Pablo Hernandez are understood to be the only injury doubts going into the match, although mystery surrounds Kiko Casilla’s current condition.
The Spanish goalkeeper was missing from the bench against Fulham and Sheffield United, but Bielsa did not elaborate upon his condition in Thursday’s press conference, only clarifying there were no new issues from Bramall Lane.
The third guaranteed absentee is Jack Harrison who is, of course, on loan from the Etihad Stadium outfit and cannot face them under Premier League rules.
Diego Llorente has completed his first full week of training under Bielsa, but surely must bide his time with Robin Koch and Liam Cooper fresh from their first clean sheet of the term.
Full Leeds United squad: Illan Meslier, Luke Ayling, Barry Douglas, Robin Koch, Liam Cooper, Ian Poveda, Patrick Bamford, Ezgjan Alioski, Tyler Roberts, Kiko Casilla, Diego Llorente, Stuart Dallas, Helder Costa, Rodrigo, Pascal Struijk, Kalvin Phillips, Leif Davis, Elia Caprile, Mateusz Klich, Jamie Shackleton.
