Illan Meslier starts in net, with Luke Ayling and Junior Firpo playing as full-backs. Robin Koch and Max Wober start in the centre of the back line, with Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie typically being first choice to protect the back line.<\/p>\n<p>As of late, Jack Harrison has been starting on the left wing opposite Crysencio Summerville on the right. Patrick Bamford plays as a centre-forward with Brenden Aaronson dropping in behind as a shadow striker.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Leeds United Recent Form and Tactics<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>The Whites&#8217; last three matches have seen the club secure four points, a significant improvement under Javi Gracia. The Yorkshire side defeated a fairly weak Southampton side before being fairly unlucky in a loss against Chelsea, before holding Brighton to a 2-2 draw.<\/p>\n<p>Such a turnaround in form is a result of adjusting tactics depending on the opponent they come up against. Holding firm without excessively pressing the Seagulls&#8217; back-line was essential to stopping the Brighton side cutting through Leeds United, securing an all-important point at Elland Road. Loyal Whites will hope to keep this flexibility and form up in the Midlands this weekend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/12\/22\/wolves-sign-matheus-cunha\/\" target=\"_self\">Wolves&#8217; Biggest Recent Transfer Update<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><b>Leeds United Injuries to Consider<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Javi Gracia has a couple of injuries to contend with. Tyler Adams misses out through a hamstring strain, whilst Adam Forshaw and Stuart Dallas are still struggling with long-term injuries.
