Over at the London Stadium, Nuno’s hosts are at full strength with the exception of long-term absent Lukasz Fabianski, the goalkeeper who hurt his back in the autumn.
Leeds, with nothing but pride on the line, arrive without a host of players although Daniel Farke said on Friday that he hopes to have Pascal Struijk and Jayden Bogle available.

Cristian Romero has ignited controversy by travelling to Argentina just days before Tottenham Hotspur’s critical Premier League clash against Everton on Sunday, a match that could determine their top-flight status.
Spurs find themselves embroiled in a desperate relegation battle, sitting merely two points above 18th-placed West Ham following their 2-1 defeat by London rivals Chelsea on Tuesday.
Despite being sidelined with an injury and absent from the Stamford Bridge fixture, Romero had been lauded as a "great captain" by manager Roberto De Zerbi only a day earlier.
However, it has since emerged that the Argentine defender is back in his homeland, attending his boyhood club Belgrano, who are set to play River Plate in a title decider this weekend.

“If the fans show their love to the players, it is not pressure, it is an honour, it is a great thing for the players,” De Zerbi insisted.
“It is not a pressure, it is a good thing, it is a positive thing for us.”“We are playing well. We deserve to stay up but we have another step and a very tough step but it’s possible for us.”
