Noah Okafor - Makes starting XI Okafor (calf) is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Burnley.

Impact Okafor was dealing with a calf injury sustained during the FA Cup semifinals, but the striker has recovered in time to maintain his regular place in the Whites' attack next to Dominic Calvert-Lewin. Okafor has been productive of late with three goals and one assist over his last three EPL appearances.

Jaka Bijol - Starting vs. Burnley Bijol (hip) is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Burnley.

Impact Bijol needed to pass a late fitness test to determine his availability, and the defender will not only be available but will also move straight into his regular place in the XI. This will be Bijol's ninth straight start across all competitions.

Jaka Bijol - Late call against Burnley Bijol (hip) was dealing with hip flexor problems following the FA Cup semifinal and is a doubt for Friday's clash against Burnley, according to coach Daniel Farke. "Bijol was deali...

Impact Bijol's potential absence compounds an already difficult situation for Leeds United at the back, with Gabriel Gudmundsson already confirmed out for Friday's fixture. Manager Daniel Farke expressed hope of having him available but stopped short of providing any guarantee ahead of the match. Sebastiaan Bornauw could be in line for minutes should Bijol be unable to go, unless Daniel Farke opts to shift back to a four-man defensive line. His availability will be determined following further assessment before Friday's clash against Burnley.

Impact Okafor's status will be determined following further assessment before Friday's match, with manager Daniel Farke stopping short of ruling him out while acknowledging uncertainty heading into the fixture. Wilfried Gnonto and Lukas Nmecha are expected to be among the candidates to fill in should Okafor be unable to go. His availability is one of several fitness concerns for Leeds heading into a crucial stretch of the season.

Gabriel Gudmundsson - Suffers hamstring injury Gudmundsson (hamstring) will miss Friday's match against Burnley and is likely to sit out the Tottenham fixture as well but is targeting a return for the final two matches of the s...

Impact Gudmundsson's absence is a notable blow for Leeds United, as the wing-back had made four consecutive starts before the hamstring issue emerged. Manager Daniel Farke's description of the injury as a bit serious suggests this is more than a minor setback, though the hope of a return for the final two matches of the campaign offers some encouragement. James Justin is expected to be among the options to cover at left wing-back during his absence.

Impact Stach's early return was described as a special case by coach Daniel Farke, who acknowledged the medical staff had concerns about bringing him on at halftime given he had only returned to team training Friday. The German midfielder had been ruled out until May with the ankle ligament issue, making Sunday's appearance a notably accelerated recovery. Manager Daniel Farke added that he may have been forced to withdraw Stach had the match gone to extra time, underlining the cautious approach the club is taking with his workload. His availability going forward will depend on how he responds physically in the coming days.

Impact Gudmundsson has made four straight starts at left wing-back but could see that streak come to an end if a significant muscle issue is confirmed. He has been active in crossing and defensive duties, so Leeds could see their power reduced in those aspects in case he's ruled out, although James Justin could do a similar job after playing that role in the past.
