Leeds vs Middlesbrough: Pierre-Michel Lasogga is ill
The Hamburg loanee has been a regular for Thomas Christiansen since joining Leeds United in the final days of the summer transfer window.
But he is not well enough to make Christiansen’s match-day squad for Middlesbrough’s visit to Elland Road.
Forward Kemar Roofe replaces Lasogga in the starting XI.
Summer signing Caleb Ekuban is on the bench following a three-month spell on the sidelines due to a foot injury.
Christiansen has made one other change to his starting XI with Pablo Hernandez replacing Eunan O’Kane.
Middlesbrough boss Garry Monk - returning to Elland Road for the first time since quitting Leeds - makes one change from the 1-0 win against Sunderland before the international break.
Swansea loanee Connor Roberts replaces the suspended Cyrus Christie at right-back.
