Reading vs Leeds United - Reading sweat on Liam Moore fitness ahead of Leeds clash
Posted Monday, March 11, 2019 by PA
Reading skipper Liam Moore is a major doubt for his side’s home game against Leeds.
Moore dislocated a shoulder in the second half of Saturday’s home win against Leeds and, although he lasted the full 90 minutes, the defender is being monitored.
On-loan Norwich forward Nelson Oliveira missed out at the weekend due to a hamstring problem and will also be assessed.
Jon Dadi Bodvarsson (calf), Sam Baldock (thigh), Andy Rinomhota and Saeid Ezatolahi (both ankle) remain sidelined.
Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa has confirmed he will name an unchanged starting line-up for the fifth successive match.
Patrick Bamford has recovered in time. The striker was withdrawn early in the second half in Saturday’s win at Bristol City after colliding with a post as he scored the winner.
Kalvin Phillips turned an ankle in the same game, but has also reported fit as Leeds bid to return to the top of the table.
Striker Kemar Roofe, midfielder Adam Forshaw (both knee) and teenage winger Jack Clarke (virus) are still out.
