A fresh doubt and a big one, Farke revealing at Friday’s pre-Forest press conference that Calvert-Lewin faced a race against time to feature this weekend due to an adductor injury. Farke said that Calvert-Lewin was “doing his rehab, progressing well but is not in team training yet” as he added that Leeds still had a couple more days but wouldn’t take any risks. Around half an hour after the press conference had finished, Calvert-Lewin took to social media platforms X and Instagram to post four photographs of himself training - two with teammates in the background - together with a running emoji.placeholder image

Nottingham Forest vs Leeds United early injury news as blows leave 4 out and 3 doubts but star back

The early injury news for Leeds United’s huge Premier League clash at Nottingham Forest.

Leeds United are now heading for a massive bottom-of-the-table clash at Nottingham Forest - for which four men are out and three more doubtful.

Just five points separate the two sides after contrasting fortunes at the weekend, Leeds falling to an extremely disappointing 3-0 defeat at Brighton.

Forest, meanwhile, picked up their first point under new boss Sean Dyche through a 2-2 draw at home to Manchester United which took them a point closer to fifth-bottom Leeds.

Sunday afternoon’s huge clash at The City Ground now represents a true six-pointer in the lower reaches of the division, providing Leeds with the chance to kick eight points clear of Forest but Forest with the opportunity to get within just two points.

There are, though, four men out of Sunday’s contest for which three more are doubts but with a star now back.

Here, we run through the early injury news from both sides.
