Marcelo Bielsa's injury boost ahead of Leeds United's top-of-the-table clash against Swansea City

Marcelo Bielsa says Leeds United have no new injury worries for this weekend's top-of-the-table clash against Swansea City.

That means that Liam Cooper, who missed last weekend's Championship win at Stoke City is available again, as is Barry Douglas who returned from injury against the Potters in the Carabao Cup defeat on Tuesday and came through unscathed.

"I think all the players are going to be available," Bielsa said as he spoke to the media on at Thorp Arch on Thursday lunchtime, before confirming that Luke Ayling and Tyler Roberts, who have been out of action all season so far, are still unavailable.

Ayling and Roberts have returned to training, with the club sharing a video of them in action at Thorp Arch, but will not be risked for the match against Steve Cooper's side.

Bielsa made eight changes for the Carabao Cup defeat to Stoke on Tuesday evening, as he used the competition to give minutes to several of these that have not featured predominantly in the league

Leeds host the Swans in a top-of-the-table clash on Saturday afternoon with both sides registering four wins and a draw from their opening five Championship matches.
