Despite the tight turnaround, Leeds will have an extra day to recover with Millwall facing two games in a little over 72 hours on the back of Sunday afternoon’s Championship hosting of Burnley. Leeds were in action 24 hours earlier with the Elland Road clash against Wayne Rooney’s Plymouth Argyle who were brushed aside by a rapid three goal blitz which sent Daniel Farke’s Whites second. Burnley then had the chance to go back above Leeds in Sunday’s clash at Millwall but Scott Parker’s side fell to a 1-0 defeat despite a raft of injuries for Neil Harris’ side. Leeds, meanwhile, have several key players out or doubtful themselves. Here we run through the injuries and suspensions from both teams ahead of Wednesday night’s 7.45pm kick-off at The Den.
13. Max Wober (back)
Austrian international Wober returned to large parts of team training last week upon recovering from a knee injury and made the bench for the weekend's clash against Plymouth. The 26-year-old was an unused sub but is clearly now back in the mix. Photo: Stu Forster
14. Dan James (back)
James was an injury doubt for the weekend's clash against Plymouth due to fresh hamstring problems but the winger took his place in the XI and came through 66 minutes having scored the opening goal of the game. James left the pitch to warm applause upon being replaced by Manor Solomon and is seemingly back from injury with a bang. Photo: Stu Forster
