Leeds v Newcastle: Team news

  • Published

Sean Longstaff, Ilia Gruev and Lukas Nmecha are the only survivors from Leeds United's Carabao Cup defeat against Sheffield Wednesday as manager Daniel Farke reverts to a more familiar line-up

Farke rotated his side at Hillsborough on Tuesday night only to watch the visitors suffer a penalty shootout loss.

New signing James Justin is named among the substitutes.

Leeds XI: Perri, Bogle, Rodon, Struijk, Gudmundsson, Longstaff, Gruev, Stach, James, Nmecha, Gnonto

Subs: Darlow, Justin, Bornauw, Bijol, Harrison, Aaronson, Okafor, Piroe, Calvert-Lewin.

The summer signing comes in for Joelinton, who misses out with a groin injury, while William Osula makes his first Premier League start for the club in place of the suspended Anthony Gordon.

Sven Botman comes into what looks like a back five while Jacob Murphy starts ahead of Anthony Elanga.

Newcastle XI: Pope, Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn, Livramento, Guimaraes, Tonali, Ramsey, Murphy, Osula
