Hasenhuttl Gives Southampton Injury Update Ahead Of Trip To Leeds United

Ralph Hasenhuttl has given the latest news on his injury list as Saints travel up to Elland Road to take on Leeds United in a game that could see the Austrian's team leapfrog the Yorkshire side if they win.

The real issue will be whether Stuart Armstrong will be fit enough to face Leeds, Ralph ad this to say

"It's fifty-fifty. That is a lot for me, it doesn't sound a lot to you, but it's a lot!

"As far as I have seen we have no more injuries - but normally I get all good messages and then they come and tell me that we have a few issues.

"Hopefully, I don't see my doctor," he said with a laugh.

Saints will also remain without Theo Walcott, Ibrahima Diallo, Kyle Walker-Peters, Will Smallbone, and Michael Obafemi for their mid-week trip.

Only Armstrong has a chance of playing against Leeds and it could be that he will make the bench with Ralph sticking with the starting XI that performed so well against Chelsea.
