Leeds United v West Brom: Early team news, predicted Whites line-up, coverage details
Here, upon landing at LS11, we will bring you all of the pre-match build-up followed by in-game updates and analysis before post-match reaction. In the meantime, here is the early Leeds team news for the 12.30pm kick-off which is being broadcast on Sky Sports Football and Sky Sports Ultra HDR.
The Whites have opted against sending captain Ethan Ampadu for surgery on his knee cartilage injury but the skipper is still set to be sidelined until after the March international break. The captain is looking at four to six weeks out – if the conservative treatment of his injury and rehab is successful. There is, though, still a chance that Ampadu may need surgery which would rule him out for the season.
Defender Max Wober and Patrick Bamford are the other two injury absentees. Wober is expected back after the March international break following successful knee surgery. Bamford remains out as he battles a hamstring injury. Right back Jayden Bogle is one yellow card away from landing himself a two-game ban. The defender has three more games to navigate before the threshold increases.
