Daniel Farke’s side have a challenging run of fixtures coming up after seeing off Coventry City with ease, facing Norwich City and Sunderland this week, then Sheffield United after the international break.
With such a competitive run of fixtures, Leeds will need to be at the top of their game to start cementing their place in the top two race, but will be without their club captain
Looking at the defensive players that Leeds have at their disposal right now, the midfield seems to pick itself with Ilia Gruev joined by Ao Tanaka.
However, in the back four, Leeds look desperately short at centre-back now that two backups in Wöber and Ampadu are simultaneously out for a large period.
Pascal Struijk and Joe Rodon simply have to stay fit now for Leeds in order to keep up this consistency at the back, and the worry is Struijk’s problematic adductor.
The Dutchman was out for the entire second half of last season with that setback, needing surgery, and Farke revealed prior to Coventrythat he missed some training with the same problem.
