Leeds United are preparing to host Newcastle United in a Premier League encounter this evening, with the match set to kick off at 8pm BST. Adam Herczeg from Durham has been named as the referee for the fixture.
Leeds United's starting lineup will see Trafford in goal, with Justin, Elvedi, and Muharemović in defence. The midfield includes Bogle, Ampadu, Tanaka, Gudmundsson, Okafor, and Stach, supporting Calvert-Lewin upfront. Substitutes include Zetterer, Bard, Bijol, Longstaff, Aaronson, Wilson James, Bahoya, and Nmecha.
Newcastle United will start with Hornicek in goal, protected by a backline of Dedic, Thiaw, Botman, and Hall. Nico and Lewis Miley will feature in midfield, with Murphy, Fernandez-Pardo, and Barnes supporting Wissa in attack. Their bench comprises Pope, Livramento, Schär, Bamba, Steur, Touré, Willock, Ramsey, and Matthew Miley.
Both teams are reportedly in good form heading into the match. Leeds comfortably avoided relegation last season and strengthened their squad over the summer, notably adding James Trafford and Tarik Muharemović. Newcastle, despite managerial changes and player sales, appear to have improved under Matthias Jaissle, with Nico González and Lewis Miley performing well.
