Leeds United kick off their home Premier League campaign at home to Brentford on Sunday in what looks set to be an exciting clash. Both sides have enjoyed two wins from two in all competitions so far, Daniel Farke’s side twice beating Nottingham Forest without conceding a goal.
That latter victory, a 2-0 turnover in the Carabao Cup, was earned despite Farke making six changes from his first Premier League line-up of the season four days earlier. A five-day break between that and Sunday should be plenty for those who have started both - the likes of Ethan Ampadu or Tarik Muharemovic - to go again.
Farke could switch things up elsewhere, however, particularly with players like Noah Okafor pushing to make an impact in the final third. And with that in mind, the YEP has attempted to predict how Farke could line his side up on Sunday.
7. CM: Ethan Ampadu
One of four outfielders to play all 180 available minutes so far, and it's hard to see a situation beyond injury or suspension in which Ampadu is not on the pitch. He is Farke's man and the glue that holds everything together. Will have a task on his hands keeping control against a quality Brentford midfield.
8. CM: Anton Stach
Stach's free-kick at Forest was brilliant but it cannot be denied that he looked quite sluggish beforehand. fortunately, Sean Longstaff also struggled in midweek. Plenty of room for the German to improve.
9. LWB: James Justin
Eventually laid claim to the second goal at Forest on Tuesday which according to his own celebration, had a whiff of good fortune shall we say. Even if Gabriel Gudmundsson does return to training ahead of Sunday, starting him in a game expected to be so physical would be a huge risk. Besides, Justin has been as dependable as ever. | Getty Images
10. RW: Harry Wilson
The disallowed goal at Forest last weekend was unfortunate, and came as a result of some brilliant movement from Wilson. The Welshman should benefit from having a teammate on the opposite wing more willing to run in behind and therefore open up defensive spaces elsewhere. | Getty Images
11. LW: Noah Okafor
And Okafor is that winger. He got 67 minutes at Forest on Tuesday and looked sharp in terms of his dribbling, albeit the final ball was a little lacking. This is about how it was at the same point last season though, and he just needs to find that rhythm. | Getty Images
12. ST: Dominic Calvert-Lewin
A seven-minute substitute appearance in midweek was about perfect for Calvert-Lewin, who kept himself up to speed without risking any kind of over-exertion. He scored at Brentford last season and will be desperate to get off the mark soon. | Getty Images
