Ahead of Leeds United’s crucial Championship clash against Brentford, manager Paul Heckingbottom has delivered some positive injury news.

Pablo Hernandez, Pierre-Michel Lasogga and Kemar Roofe picked up knocks during the 2-2 draw against Derby on Wednesday. However, Heckingbottom expects all three to be available for selection for Saturday’s clash.

Hernandez limped off in the second half against Derby with an apparent groin problem, while Lasogga had a stiff calf.

“Hopefully we’ll have Pablo,” Heckingbottom said in his press conference, as quoted by Leeds Live. “We’re just waiting to see how Pablo and Roofey are, plus Pierre who has a stiff calf.
