Kemar Roofe is out of Leeds United’s second leg Championship play-off semi-final against Derby County on Wednesday with a calf injury.
Roofe scored his 15th goal of the season, producing an excellent first-time finish from Jack Harrison’s cross to give Marcelo Bielsa’s side a crucial advantage.
It will be a huge blow to Leeds, as the 26-year-old has scored four goals in three games against Derby this season.
Roofe will be joined on the sidelines by midfielder Adam Forshaw, while defender Pontus Jansson remains doubtful, revealed Bielsa.

Patrick Bamford is likely to be put back into the starting XI in place of Roofe, having served his two-match suspension.
“(Adam) Forshaw won’t be available,” Bielsa said.
“(Pontus) Jansson will tomorrow try to work normally. And we will see tomorrow how he is.
“Roofe won’t be available either. Kemar’s problem is more simple than Adam’s, but still he won’t be available for Wednesday’s game.”
Asked what the issue was, he said: “It’s a calf problem. It’s less serious than Forshaw’s injury but we have to take care of him.”

With the Blues training at the Luzhniki Stadium ahead of their showdown with Manchester United, Makelele and Cole contested a 50/50 ball.
