Connor Roberts faces a race to be involved in what could be a crucial final game of the season for Leeds United, at home to Southampton.

The right-back will definitely miss Leeds' next two matches – at Middlesbrough on Monday and Queens Park Rangers on Friday – through injury. But the manager Daniel Farke has not yet written off the game against Southampton at Elland Road on May 4. The Saints have re-emerged as serious contenders for automatic promotion having seemingly dropped out of the running in March.

'His muscle showed a reaction after the last game during training this week and he will definitely miss the two upcoming away games – perhaps there is a chance for him to be back for Southampton. 'We tried to be really careful with him after he came back injury after the last international break, just gave him a few short-term appearances and the last game was the last time he played 60 minutes.
