Brentford v Leeds United injuries as Daniel Farke confirms fresh blow and one doubt remains | OneFootball

Leeds United visit Brentford on Sunday with both sides juggling fitness issues, and Daniel Farke has confirmed a fresh setback up front.

According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, Lukas Nmecha will miss out again with a hamstring problem. An initial hope it would be only one game has not materialised, and he joins long-term absentees Sean Longstaff, calf, and Daniel James, hamstring tendon.

Leeds arrive buoyed by a 3-1 win over Chelsea last Wednesday and a 3-3 draw with Liverpool at the weekend, sealed by Ao Tanaka’s added-time equaliser.

Brentford have lost their last two, both away at Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, before hosting at the Gtech Community Stadium.

Fabio Carvalho is out for the season after an ACL injury in training last month, while Antoni Milambo is also sidelined for the campaign with an ACL sustained on international duty in October.

Josh Dasilva is continuing his recovery from ACL repair and two subsequent surgeries, having returned to the grass last month, with plans for a December training return and gradual integration.

Kevin Schade is suspended for Leeds’ visit after a fifth booking in last weekend’s defeat at Tottenham.

Reiss Nelson has missed two games with a knock and could return to the squad, although nothing is confirmed.
