Jack Harrison - Back in starting XI Harrison is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Southampton.

Impact Harrison returns to the starting XI Saturday with Raphinha out following international duty. Harrison hasn't started in a month, but given other absences in the team, he should be headed for a full 90 against Southampton with set pieces possible.

Junior Firpo - Misses squad Saturday Firpo is not in the squad for Saturday's match against Southampton.

Impact An update will likely be revealed on Firpo's absence, as he probably wouldn't be completely dropped from the squad for no reason. Stuart Dallas is starting at left-back against Southampton and could continue there if Firpo is forced to miss an extended period.

Kalvin Phillips - Out against Southampton Phillips (calf) is not in the squad for Saturday's match against Southampton.

Impact Phillips was a doubt entering Saturday's match and he's not well enough to play, forcing Leeds into some midfield changes. The hope is that Phillips will only miss one match and in the mean time, Pascal Struijk moved back to the starting XI as a defensive midfielder.

Raphinha - Plays 71 minutes for Brazil Raphinha is unlikely for Saturday's match against Southampton after playing 71 minutes in Thursday's game with Brazil.

Impact Marcelo Bielsa isn't one to force his players into action when they aren't ready, so Raphinha is all but guaranteed to miss out on the XI less than 48 hours after starting for Brazil. Jack Harrison and Daniel James are projected to start on the wings against Southampton.

OCTOBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Adam Forshaw - Available against Southampton Forshaw (hamstring) will be in contention for Saturday's clash with Southampton. Manager Marcelo Bielsa told reporters, "Forshaw and (Crysencio) Summerville are available again."

Impact Forshaw was originally expected to be out of action for a month, however, it seems as though he is ahead of schedule. The midfielder has yet to make an appearance for the club this season and will likely have to settle for a substitute role now that he is fully fit.

Robin Koch - Set for procedure Koch is in the United States for a "simple procedure" on his pubis, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.

Impact Things clearly weren't going to plan for Koch, so he's set for surgery which will hopefully help his issue. He's been out since the first match of the season and will probably miss at least one more month, depending how the procedure goes.

Raphinha - Doubt for Southampton trip Raphinha is considered a doubt for Saturday's trip to Southampton, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa. "The option to participate on Saturday depends on whether he plays tonight a...

Impact There have been reports on Raphinha starting Thursday night for Brazil and if that happens, he will most likely miss Saturday's match against Southampton. It'd be an unfortunate blow for Leeds, but Jack Harrison is an option that can seamlessly move into the starting XI.

Kalvin Phillips - Hopeful to play Saturday Phillips (calf) "has chances of being able to play" Saturday against Southampton, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa. "Like I said, he has possibilities to play, and we will decid...

Impact This isn't an overly confident update on Phillips, but he's played through minor issues in the past. The hope is that this was only a muscle tweak and he won't further damage his calf. Still, nothing is guaranteed with muscle injuries and there's a chance Pascal Struijk enters the XI if Phillips is unable to go Saturday.

OCTOBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Patrick Bamford - Will miss Southampton trip Bamford (ankle) will remain out for Saturday's trip to Southampton, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.

Impact It's unfortunate news on Bamford but not overly surprising given his injury. He's been out since Sept. 17 and with another week of rehab, will hope to return next week against Wolves. Rodrigo should once again start up front for Leeds against Southampton.

OCTOBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Stuart Dallas - Playing over break Dallas has played in two matches for Northern Ireland over the international break and is expected to be ready for Saturday's trip to Southampton.

Impact Dallas appears good to go after suffering an apparent injury in the match before the break. He rarely misses time for Leeds, so his early removal was something to mark down, but it's clearly not an issue. He has eight shots in his last two starts, but he's yet to hit the back of the net this season after eight goals last campaign.

Kalvin Phillips - Out of national team with calf strain Phillips has withdrawn from the English national team because of a calf strain.

Impact The injury is reportedly minor for Phillips, which is great news for Leeds fans. The problem is that Marcelo Bielsa rarely gives notable injury updates, meaning there may not be an update from the team in the next two weeks. The defensive midfielder has gone a full 90 in every match for Leeds since missing the opener due to a lack of fitness, a game they lost 5-1 at Man United.

Rodrigo Moreno - Creates four chances in win Rodrigo took two shots and created four chances in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Watford. He also made a clearance in the match.

Impact Rodrigo was dangerous with his passing against Watford on Saturday, and he will be fresh and ready to go against 17th-placed Southampton after the international break.

Raphinha - Takes five shots in win Raphinha took five shots and created a chance in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Watford. He also won one of one tackles in the match.

Impact Raphinha was a threat to Watford on Saturday even if he wasn't quite accurate enough with his shots. He will be looking to add to his season tally of three goals against Southampton, which have conceded 10 times in seven Premier League matches, after the international break.

OCTOBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Illan Meslier - Keeps clean sheet against Watford Meslier made a save and kept a clean sheet in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Watford.

Impact Meslier kept his first clean sheet of the season Saturday as Leeds also won their first Premier League game. He will hope to build off this momentum after the international break when he faces Southampton, which have scored just five goals in seven matches.

OCTOBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Diego Llorente - Scores goal against Watford Llorente scored a goal and won two of two tackles in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Watford. He also made two clearances and an interception in the match.

Impact Llorente was the difference maker on Saturday, his return to the pitch after missing two games with a hamstring injury. He has another few weeks to finish recovering during the upcoming international break before taking on Southampton, which have scored just five goals in seven Premier League matches this season, on Oct. 16.

Stuart Dallas - Comes off injured against Watford Dallas was subbed out of Saturday's victory against Watford in the 78th minute after suffering an apparent hip injury.

Impact Dallas was playing well on both sides of the ball before his potential injury struck, taking five shots (one on target), creating two chances and winning two of two tackles in the match. He has a few weeks to recover thanks to the upcoming international break before Leeds faces Southampton on Oct. 16.

Diego Llorente - Back in starting XI Llorente (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Watford.

Impact Llorente gets the immediate start Saturday after missing the last two matches with a hamstring injury. The hope is that he doesn't pick up another muscular issue, as he's dealt with a variety of them since joining Leeds a year ago. That said, he's starting, so the thought is that he's fit enough to go 90.
