Karl Darlow Starts – Leeds United Team vs West Brom Confirmed | OneFootball

Competition: Championship Kick-off: 20:15 UK time

Leeds United boss Daniel Farke has picked his team for tonight’s Championship meeting with West Brom at the Hawthorns.

The Whites undid some of their good work from beating Ipswich Town when they slipped to a loss at Preston North End on Boxing Day.

Illan Meslier was sent off at Deepdale for violent conduct and as a result is suspended for this evening’s game.

The earlier meeting between the two sides this season, at Elland Road, ended in a 1-1 draw as Leeds came from behind to salvage a point thanks to a Luke Ayling goal.

Karl Darlow slots in between the sticks for Leeds under the floodlights tonight, while at the back Farke goes with Djed Spence, Liam Cooper, Joe Rodon and Sam Byram.

In the engine room, Farke looks to Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev to dominate, while in the final third Leeds field Crysencio Summerville, Willy Gnonto and Joel Piroe behind Georginio Rutter.

If the Leeds boss wants to shake things up then he has options to call for from the bench and they include Patrick Bamford and Daniel James.
