Impact Okafor is ruled out for the next two matches after sustaining a hamstring injury last weekend in a cup match. The forward had started the previous game, and his absence could be felt, as he has recorded four goals and one assist across 25 appearances in all competitions this season. Jayden Bogle or Lukas Nmecha are likely to start in his place depending on the formation deployed by coach Daniel Farke.

Pascal Struijk - Won't make FA Cup action Struijk (hip) is not an option for Sunday's match against Birmingham, according to manager Daniel Farke. "I don't think Pascal will be involved in this game."

Impact Struijk will not be with the team as they take the field on Sunday, as he is still recovering from a hip injury. The good news is that with the defender just nearly missing out, a return shouldn't take too much longer. He will then eye the next match when facing Aston Villa on Feb. 21, as he is a lead defender when fit for the club.

Impact Calvert-Lewin has been battling an illness over the past few days but is trending toward being available for Tuesday's showdown against Chelsea. The striker has been a locked-in starter for Leeds United and if he is unable to shake the illness in time and sit out the match, Lukas Nmecha would be next in line to lead the attack until Calvert-Lewin is cleared to return.

Anton Stach - Aiming return against Villa Stach (hip) is aiming a return for next week's clash against Aston Villa, coach Daniel Farke said in the press conference. "Stach will be back for the Villa game."

Impact Stach is expected to sit out the next two matches across all competitions against Chelsea and Birmingham City as he continues to rehab a hip injury, with a return targeted for the clash with Aston Villa late next week. This is a tough hit for Leeds United, as he is a steady presence in midfield when healthy and his absence leaves a noticeable gap in the starting squad. In the meantime, Ilia Gruev and Sean Longstaff are in line to log heavier minutes in the center of the park until Stach is cleared to return.

Impact Struijk has picked up a hip flexor injury and has been officially ruled out of Tuesday's showdown against the Blues. The defender is expected to undergo further evaluation later this week, which should clarify the severity of the problem and provide a clearer timetable for his return. He has been a mainstay in the starting XI this season, therefore his absence leaves a notable hole at the back, likely pushing Sebastiaan Bornauw into the lineup as the next man up while he recovers.
