Are Leicester City’s chances of winning the Championship beginning to falter? Is Leeds United able to overtake them?
At the top of the standings, things are becoming very intriguing as the two clubs get ready to face off at Elland Road. The Whites come into the much awaited encounter riding an eight-game winning streak. Regarding the captains, the Foxes struggled at home against Middlesbrough. In spite of the loss, City is still in the lead for the championship. They have a better goal differential and lead United by nine points. Here is the most recent information from the Thorp Arch treatment as United gets ready for their match on Friday.
Due to a calf injury sustained by Bamford during the warm-up against Swansea City last week, United was forced to make a last-minute alteration to their starting lineup. Joel Piroe, who scored against his old team, took his place in the attacking lineup.
Before Plymouth, Farke stated, “We expect him to be out not too long.” I don’t think he’ll return for the forthcoming matchup with Leicester. If he could, it would be a pleasant pleasant surprise. He will be absent for ten to twelve days.”
An adductor issue has kept the Dutch defender out of the last 12 games. Farke moved Ethan Ampadu to center back as a result of his injury setback. Ampadu and Joe Rodon have established a solid backcourt tandem.
