Leeds United are looking for their first league win of the Championship season
Daniel Farke has made two changes to his Leeds United starting XI to take on West Bromwich Albion at Elland Road this evening. The Whites are looking for their first win of the Championship season having picked up just one point from their opening two and Farke knows his side have a job on their hands.
Georginio Rutter comes into the starting line-up for the first time this season. The Frenchman returned from a side injury last week to play against Birmingham City and comes into the line-up to take on the Baggies this time around. Sam Greenwood makes his first appearance in a squad this season having recovered from the injury he picked up in pre-season. He’ll be keen to make an impact later in the game with spaces in the side up for grabs.Joe Rodon starts for the first time as a Leeds player after joining from Tottenham Hotspur on loan last week. For the second game running, though, Farke has been unable to fill a full bench. This time, despite the presence of two goalkeepers, he has left two spots unfilled. Ian Poveda and Leo Hjelde have dropped out of the fold entirely. Leeds United: Illan Meslier; Luke Ayling, Joe Rodon, Pascal Struijk, Sam Byram; Ethan Ampadu, Jamie Shackleton, Archie Gray, Joe Gelhardt, Dan James; Georginio Rutter. Bench: Karl Darlow, Kristoffer Klaesson, Cody Drameh, Charlie Cresswell, Sam Greenwood, Darko Gyabi, Lewis Bate
