📋 Team News: Leeds United
In all likelihood, The Whites could opt for a 4-3-3 formation in the match, handing starts to Karl Darlow, Jayden Bogle, Joe Rodon, Pascal Struijk, Gabriel Gudmundsson, Sean Longstaff, Ethan Ampadu, Anton Stach, Brenden Aaronson, D. Calvert-Lewin and Noah Okafor.
ℹ️ Team News: Bournemouth
Out of a mainly healthy group of players, there’s just the lone fitness issue for the Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola to be concerned with. Enes Ünal (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be playing here.
We’re of the thinking that The Cherries seem likely to utilise a 4-2-3-1 lineup with a starting lineup of Djordje Petrovic, Alex Jimenez, Bafode Diakite, Marcos Senesi, Adrien Truffert, Tyler Adams, Alex Scott, Antoine Semenyo, Marcus Tavernier, David Brooks and Evanilson.
💡 Prediction
We’re of the view that Leeds United may not find it easy to hit the back of the net against this Bournemouth team who should score & stay on top.
With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a 0-1 winning score for Bournemouth when the full-time whistle blows.
It should be a good one.
