Hide AdBamford has been fighting to get fit as he recovers from a ruptured plantar fascia and Marsch said it was a waiting game to see whether the striker could be involved against the Seagulls.
Jack Harrison and Raphinha both start having both come off during the second-half of Wednesday night's 3-0 defeat at home to Chelsea, Raphinha after sitting down on the Elland Road pitch late and appearing to be stretching out his right leg.
Harrison took a knock from Reece James early on and failed to run it off.
