LEEDS UNITED: Seagulls face striker crisis
Brighton hotshot Glenn Murray is rated as "touch and go" for south-coast club's big test at Elland Road on Saturday.
The in-form Seagulls striker, who has netted seven goals in 10 appearances this season, missed the Johnstone's Paint Trophy win over Leyton Orient on Tuesday with a thigh strain.
He is also expected to sit out training today. The Seagulls are still exploring the loan market for a striking reinforcement and have Joe Anyinsah, available for one more game before his month's loan from Preston expires.
Seagulls boss Micky Adams said: "Glenn has been having treatment and I don't think he will train today.
"That obviously makes him touch and go for the weekend."
Meanwhile, Brighton skipper and frontman Nicky Forster faces up to six weeks on the sidelines after undergoing knee surgery this week.
