Jaka Bijol - Keeps clean sheet Sunday Bijol kept a clean sheet and had 12 clearances in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Brighton.

Impact Bijol kept his fifth clean sheet of the season Sunday, four of which have come in his last eight starts. He was very active versus Brighton as he recorded 12 clearances -- his sixth match this season with double-digit clearances -- and blocked two shots on the defensive end. He'll look to finish the season strong Sunday at West Ham.

Daniel James - Two shots in Sunday's win James had two shots (zero on goal) and four crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Brighton.

Impact James made his second consecutive start Sunday, once again occupying the right side of the midfield. He managed two shots and four crosses on the attack, though he didn't record a shot on target, chance created or an accurate cross. He was subbed off in the 60th minute for Wilfried Gnonto.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin - Scores late winner vs Brighton Calvert-Lewin scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Brighton. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 97th minute.

Impact Calvert-Lewin's excellent end to the season continued Sunday as he scored an unassisted goal in the 96th minute to defeat Brighton in the final home match of the season. It was his only shot in the match and it marked his 14th goal of the season, three of which have come in his last three matches. He'll look to finish the season strong Sunday at West Ham.

Karl Darlow - Keeps clean sheet Sunday Darlow registered seven saves and secured a clean sheet in Sunday's 1-0 win against Brighton.

Impact Darlow had potentially his best outing of the season Sunday as he made a season-high seven saves in the clean sheet. It marked his fifth clean sheet of the season, though he needed to make just four total saves in his other four clean sheets this season. Next up is the season finale at West Ham, a side that needs to win in order to avoid relegation to the Championship.

Facundo Buonanotte - Loan lock lifted, remains doubtful Buonanotte (hamstring) is no longer loan-locked after the restriction preventing him from playing against his parent club Brighton has expired, but remains a doubt heading into the...

Impact Buonanotte had been ineligible for Sunday's clash against Brighton due to the loan clause, but his hamstring issue adds another layer of uncertainty over his involvement in Leeds' remaining fixture. The Argentine attacker has managed just two substitute appearances since joining on loan, and the club will assess his fitness over the coming days before making any decisions on his potential involvement before the season concludes.

Brenden Aaronson - Suffers apparent knee injury Aaronson was forced off in the 60th minute of Sunday's 1-0 win over Brighton after dropping to the ground holding his left knee, raising serious concerns over his World Cup partici...

Impact Aaronson received treatment from club doctors before walking off gingerly to be replaced, with the nature and severity of the issue yet to be confirmed. The timing could not be worse for the American forward, who is fighting for a place in manager Mauricio Pochettino's squad being named on May 26, with the USMNT set to begin training the following day in Fayetteville, Georgia. Aaronson was part of the 2022 World Cup roster and will be desperate to prove his fitness before the squad announcement, with the club set to assess the extent of the knee issue over the coming days before providing any further clarity on his timeline.

Anton Stach - Forced off on stretcher Stach (undisclosed) was stretchered off in the 74th minute of Sunday's clash against Brighton in a distressing scene, leaving his World Cup participation with Germany in serious do...

Impact Stach was visibly in significant pain as the stretcher was called for, with the sight of blood adding to the concern surrounding the nature of the injury. The timing could not be worse for the midfielder, who had only recently returned ahead of schedule from an ankle ligament issue and was pushing to earn a place in Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann's World Cup squad. No details have been provided on the extent of the injury, and further examination will be required before a clearer picture emerges. With the tournament less than a month away, the next few days of testing will be crucial in determining whether Stach has any realistic chance of featuring for Germany this summer.

Pascal Struijk - Not an option Sunday Struijk (hip) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Brighton.

Impact Struijk has been unable to recover from the hip issue that forced him off during the club's last match, with manager Daniel Farke's assessment of him as a major doubt proving accurate after the defender was unable to train during the week. The last time Struijk missed a start in the league dates back to March 8, making his absence a notable concern for a Leeds United side that has relied heavily on him at the back. Sebastiaan Bornauw is expected to step into the starting role until he returns to full speed.

Ethan Ampadu - In starting squad Ampadu (illness) is in the starting XI for Sunday's clash against Brighton.

Impact Ampadu shook off the illness that had kept him out of training and left him as a major doubt heading into the weekend, with manager Daniel Farke handing him a starting role after the midfielder recovered sufficiently over the final days of the week. The last time Ampadu missed a start in the league dates back to Feb. 15, making his return to the lineup a significant relief for Leeds United after the uncertainty surrounding his fitness.

Ethan Ampadu - Dealing with illness Ampadu is a doubtful for Sunday's match against Brighton due to an illness, according to manager Daniel Farke. "Ethan is struggling with illness. Also, a major doubt, was not in tr...

Impact Ampadu is going to need to rest the next two days before trying to make a return Sunday, as the midfielder is dealing with an illness. This is a major storyline to watch heading into the match, as he last missed a start Feb. 15 in FA Cup play, leaving his potential absence as a huge loss. He will need to go through some testing Sunday to play if he wakes up feeling better, with Sean Longstaff as a likely replacement if Ampadu remains out.

Pascal Struijk - Not training, availability in doubt Struijk (hip) is doubtful for Sunday's match against Brighton, according to manager Daniel Farke. "Pascal [is] not in training yet after the last game. Big doubt if he is available...

Impact Struijk had to leave the club's last match early and now remains in doubt for the club, as he was unable to train during the week. This will leave the defender with only two days to see a status change, likely trying to push to train, but unlikely to risk him with their place in the Premier League solidified for next season. However, he has been a regular starter as of late, with his last missed start in FA Cup play on March 8, leaving Sebastiaan Bornauw to likely work into the starting XI in his place.

Gabriel Gudmundsson - Out to face Seagulls Gudmundsson (hamstring) is out for Sunday's match against Brighton, according to manager Daniel Farke.

Impact Gudmundsson has been labeled week-to-week but will miss another match either way, as the defender will not be an option for the penultimate match of the campaign. This leaves the club without either of its regular starting full-backs, as Jayden Bogle (hamstring) also remains out. With that said, James Justin will likely serve on the left and Daniel James on the right as Gudmundsson and Bogle look to return in the season finale.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Jayden Bogle - Another game out Bogle (hamstring) is out for Sunday's match against Brighton, according to manager Daniel Farke.

Impact Bogle had to miss out last week and will remain out yet another match, as his hamstring injury is still too much to play through. This will keep the club without its main wing-back on the right, likely leaving Daniel James to start in his spot again. Bogle will now be in a race against time to play again this season, with the season finale against West Ham on May 24.

Joe Rodon - Strong in Monday's draw Rodon recorded one shot (one on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur. In addition, he was given a yellow card in th...

Impact Rodon took on his former club Monday and made sure his name was on every Spurs' fans lips. He helped keep Spurs to just two shots on target, recording four clearances, one tackle, one interception and one blocked shot on the defensive end. He was also involved on the attack, recording one shot on target, one chance created and one accurate cross in his very active 90 minutes of action.

Sean Longstaff - Provides late spark versus Spurs Longstaff recorded two shots (one on goal), two crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Monday's 1-1 draw versus Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Longstaff nearly scored the last minute equalizer Monday, but Antonin Kinsky came up with an impossible save to secure the draw. Despite subbing onto the pitch in the 93rd minute, Longstaff made his impact felt in the match, finishing with two shots and two accurate crosses in his short cameo.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin - Converts penalty Monday Calvert-Lewin scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Calvert-Lewin scored the equalizing goal Monday, a well-struck penalty in the 74th minute to secure the road draw. It marked his 13th goal of the campaign, three of which have come in his last five contests. He didn't do much else outside of the penalty, but that was enough for him to make a massive impact on the match and the relegation battle.

MAY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Karl Darlow - Concedes once Monday Darlow made one save and allowed one goal in Monday's 1-1 draw versus Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Darlow conceded one goal Monday, a stunning outside-the-box strike by Mathys Tel in the 50th minute. He was only tested one other time in the match, a credit to his defense for shutting down the Spurs attack. He's conceded one or zero goals in nine of his last 10 starts, an impressive tally for a side near the bottom of the table. He faces Brighton on Sunday, a side which has scored 52 goals through 36 matches this season.
