Team News

Leeds
Birmingham
  • Illan Meslier remains suspended for the visit of Birmingham, while Luke Ayling and Jamie Shackleton are doubts.
  • Expect Dan James, Archie Gray and Glen Kamara to return to the starting XI on Monday afternoon.
  • Centre-back Pascal Struijk remains sidelined for this fixture, so Liam Cooper will retain his place in defence.
  • Defensive duo Marc Roberts and Lee Buchanan are both doubtful for the trip to Elland Road.
  • Wayne Rooney could make one change to the side that faced Bristol City with Oliver Burke replacing teenage starlet Romelle Donovan out wide.

Prediction

  • Leeds failed to produce a response after going behind during the first half of their clash with West Brom on Friday night, eventually succumbing to a 1-0 away defeat.
  • Back-to-back league defeats have left Daniel Farke's men a daunting nine points adrift in the race for automatic promotion.
  • Birmingham produced a respectable defensive performance to hold an in-form Bristol City side to a goalless draw last time out.
  • Wayne Rooney's men are, however, winless in four as they prepare to make the trip to Elland Road with the gap to the relegation zone standing at seven points.
