Leeds United haven’t had the best month so far, with their injury list combined with the general wear and tear of the season having contributed to some poor results in January.

The Whites started the year with a 4-2 defeat at Nottingham Forest before following that up with FA Cup elimination in a 2-1 loss at Queens Park Rangers.

Luckily for the Leeds faithful, Marcelo Bielsa was able to deliver some positive updates regarding the team personnel ahead of Saturday’s trip to Rotherham United.

As reported on the Whites’ Twitter account, midfielder Stuart Dallas and defender Barry Douglas are available and will feature for the Under-23s on Monday.
