Leeds United’s 2022-2023 Premier League campaign will conclude with a road game against West Ham United. Head coach Sam Allardyce has made two changes to the starting lineup for this important Premier League matchup.
Line-up Changes
Adam Forshaw and Pascal Struijk have been inserted into the starting eleven, taking the places of Junior Firpo and Sam Greenwood, who are both serving suspensions for their roles in the incident. The purpose of these adjustments is to improve the team and help it adjust to the absence of important players.
Goalkeeper and Defense
Joel Robles retains his position as the goalkeeper for Leeds United. The defensive line consists of Max Wöber, Rasmus Kristensen, captain Luke Ayling, and Robin Koch, who joins Struijk in the backline. This defensive setup aims to provide solidity and stability to the team’s backline.
Midfield Composition
In midfield, Adam Forshaw partners with Weston McKennie, forming a dynamic and versatile midfield duo. Their presence is crucial in controlling the game’s tempo, providing a balance between defensive cover and creative distribution.
Attack Formation
Leeds United’s attacking positions are occupied by Jack Harrison, Rodrigo, and Patrick Bamford. This attacking trio possesses a combination of pace, skill, and goal-scoring ability, aiming to penetrate West Ham United’s defense and create scoring opportunities.
Substitutes and Squad
On the substitutes bench, alongside Sam Greenwood, are goalkeeper Illan Meslier, Crysencio Summerville, Willy Gnonto, Brenden Aaronson, Marc Roca, Georginio Rutter, Jeremiah Mullen, and the return of Liam Cooper. This diverse group of players provides options for Allardyce to make strategic changes and impact the game as needed.
