Leeds United come into this week with renewed optimism thanks to their dramatic win over Liverpool last time out.

The Whites have managed to end their winless run in superb circumstances, beating Liverpool at Anfield thanks to a late goal from Crysencio Summerville.

It sees Leeds move out of the relegation zone with this result, ahead of a home match against newly-promoted Bournemouth at Elland Road this Saturday.

The game did see Jesse Marsch with a squad of reduced strength after seeing a handful of his senior players pick up fresh setbacks.

After the weekend’s big win, we take a look at all the latest injury news this week…

Luis Sinisterra

Sinisterra was the only one out of the four players with a fresh setback last week that didn’t travel with the squad to Liverpool.

A foot issue is what kept Sinisterra sidelined and because he was only “in question” for the Anfield trip, he could be looking at a return to the squad for the home game against Bournemouth this Saturday.

Should Summerville always be starting?

Adam Forshaw

Forshaw was sat in the stands at Liverpool with professional fighters Joe Craven and Paddy Pimblett as he continues to recover from hernia surgery.

There hasn’t been a timescale on when he’ll be back as of yet.

Stuart Dallas

Dallas is still building up his fitness after his leg break back in April, but could be part of the side during their winter training plans according to Marsch (via Ben Dinnery, 14/10):

“Stuart is making good progress, and we’re planning on bringing him along with us with whatever we do. He’ll be part of the group, so that’s big progress there.”

Leo Hjelde

Hjelde has seemingly fully recovered from surgery on his appendix last month, with Marsch revealing that he was only a “doubt” for the Liverpool game – per Phil Hay.
