Final injury news has been provided for Leeds United’s Monday night clash at relegation-battling rivals Tottenham Hotspur - for which fresh blows have left ten players out and three more doubtful despite key men coming back.
Leeds might well be mathematically safe from relegation by the time Monday’s 8pm kick-off at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium comes around as United’s Premier League status will be confirmed if title chasing Arsenal win at third-bottom West Ham on Sunday afternoon.
With bottom two clubs Wolves and Burnley already down, West Ham are seven points behind Leeds with just three games left. Because of their far inferior goal difference, even an Arsenal draw would realistically be enough to consider Leeds safe, albeit not mathematically.]
But a West Ham win would set the cat amongst the pigeons and in any case boss Daniel Farke has already declared the importance of Leeds finishing the season as strongly as possible.
That is also an absolute must for Tottenham who are finally out of the relegation zone but just one point ahead of West Ham.
It all means that Monday night’s match is absolutely huge although fresh blows have left ten players out of the contest and three more doubtful - despite key men coming back.
After the final updates from both camps, here we run through the combined final team news for both sides.
19. BACK: Joe Rodon
Whites warrior Rodon made a very quick return from the ankle injury suffered in last month's FA Cup quarter-final victory at West Ham, a blow which was thought likely to keep him out until May, Rodon, though, returned to the bench just two weeks later for the league clash against Wolves and then bagged his first start since the injury in Friday night's win against Burnley.

20. BACK: Jaka Bijol
Another tough as nails defender, United's Slovenian international centre-back Bijol was a doubt for Friday night's visit of Burnley due to problems with his hip flexor but the 27-year-old started the game and played the full match. Another huge boost. | AFP via Getty Images
