Leeds United head coach Steve Evans has provided an update on his squad ahead of the Whites trip to Wales to take on Cardiff City tomorrow evening.

Evans' side returned to winning ways at the weekend by beating Bolton Wanderers 2-1 at Elland Road, but they exited the game with injury concerns as Lewie Coyle and Liam Cooper were forced off, while Souleymane Doukara had ice on his foot after the match.




But Evans is hopeful that one, two, or potentially all three, will be available for selection against Cardiff.

He said on BBC Radio Leeds: "We're going to wait very, very late to see how Lewie Coyle is. The good news is that we don't think it's anything serious and he was in yesterday and seems to be a lot better.
 


"Liam Cooper, the same, probably has more of a chance. He just felt a hamstring tighten up, but he will make the trip down to Cardiff", Evans continued.

"Souley is fine. He just got someone stamp on his foot in the last seconds."

The boss was also asked about striker Chris Wood and explained he will take no chances with the New Zealander if he does not feel the situation is right. And if Wood does not play on Tuesday then Evans is sure he will feature at the weekend.

"We'll train this morning and if Chris comes through with no effects he will be included.

"We will do what we've previously done, look at the weather, all the circumstances, and we're hopeful Chris will be on the team sheet, but if he isn't then he will be on Saturday", Evans, who is still targeting a top ten finish for his side in the Championship this season, added.
