After a dismal four-game winless run in the Championship, Leeds United restored some faith in their campaign with a much-needed victory over Bolton Wanderers on Good Friday.
The Yorkshire outfit remain outsiders to push for a playoff spot as they reside 10 points adrift of the top six, but the triumph provides a boost to the team ahead of their final seven matches of the season.
This evening, Paul Heckingbottom’s side are back in action as they take on Fulham at Craven Cottage.
The team have somewhat of a disadvantage given that the manager will be without seven players, according to the Yorkshire Evening Post.

The publication claims that Liam Cooper could miss the rest of the season due to a muscle tear that he suffered last week.
Adam Forshaw will also be unavailable this evening due to a calf problem that has hampered him on and off since January.
The fans have been left frustrated by the midfielder’s injury, but that feeling is expected to worsen when they consider that seven players will be missing tonight.
As well as the aforementioned pair, the Whites will be without Laurens De Bock, Tyler Roberts, Conor Shaughnessy, Luke Ayling and Kemar Roofe.
Ahead of the match, Leeds supporters have been tweeting their thoughts on the growing injury list.
