Leeds United's predicted line-up for Leicester City clash with Whites trio definitely out

Leeds United will take on Leicester City in their next Premier League clash at Elland Road on Sunday - and this is how we think the Whites will line up.

Head coach Marcelo Bielsa held his pre-match press conference on Friday morning and revealed that Patrick Bamford (ankle), Luke Ayling (knee) and Robin Koch (hip) were all still injured.

Bielsa said he would know mow about the condition of both Jamie Shackleton and Junior Firpo in the run up to Sunday's fixture which will see the Whites and Foxes lock horns in a 2pm kick-off at Elland Road.

Shackleton was forced off injured midway through the second half of last weekend's 2-1 victory at Norwich City, a game Firpo missed having played 30 minutes for United's under-23s on the Friday evening on his comeback from a muscular injury.

After Bielsa provided his latest team news, this is how we think Leeds will line up as Foxes boss Brendan Rodgers and his Leicester side head for Elland Road.
