James picked up a hamstring tendon injury during last month’s 2-1 defeat at Manchester City while Sean Longstaff is out with a calf problem. Lukas Nmecha missed Saturday’s 3-3 draw against Liverpool with a hamstring strain but Farke hopes the physical striker will be fit in time to face the Bees.

It’s felt like Leeds have never been too far away from a fitness issue, with the likes of Lucas Perri, Noah Okafor, Anton Stach and Sebastiaan Bornauw all missing periods of action. And according to recent data published by Sky Sports, the Whites have actually had more injuries than anyone else in the Premier League this season.

Things aren’t too bad for Leeds right now but the data below is evidence of the challenges Farke has faced at times. Take a look to see how many injuries each team has suffered this season, and who is currently sidelined according to PremierInjuries.com.
