Leeds and Crystal Palace team news with Disasi banned and injuries before Elland Road clash | OneFootball

Leeds United host Crystal Palace at Elland Road on Sunday, fresh from a 4-1 home win over Newcastle United.

Three goals in 14 first-half minutes sealed their first home victory and moved them up to third. Daniel Farke’s side reported no fresh injuries from that match.

Palace have lost three of their first four league games under new manager Pierre Sage. Chadi Riad tore his ACL after returning in the opener against Everton and is expected to miss the season.

Jean-Philippe Mateta suffered a hamstring issue in late August and is expected to remain out until after the imminent international break. First-choice goalkeeper Dean Henderson is managing a foot problem, and a return before the break is unlikely.

Axel Disasi, on loan from Chelsea, was sent off in the 3-2 defeat to Ipswich Town and will serve a three-game ban, so he misses Sunday.

Eddie Nketiah missed the Ipswich game after failing late tests and remains a doubt. Ismaila Sarr has yet to feature this season due to a groin injury and is also questionable for Elland Road.
