Fixture: Leeds United Under-23s vs York City
Competition: Friendly
Kick-off: 12:15 (UK time)

Leeds United Under-23s have named their starting eleven and substitutes to take on York City in a friendly fixture this afternoon as they look to stay match sharp.

The young Whites, bossed by Jason Blunt, won their last match, thrashing Wigan Athletic 4-0 and will be keen to make sure they continue their good form against York.




There is a flavour of experience to Blunt's side as a number of first team players continue to turn out for the Under-23s to get minutes under their belt and stay sharp if requred by senior team boss Garry Monk.

Toumani Diagouraga is handed a start, while midfielder Luke Murphy also plays from the off this afternoon. Between the sticks is experienced custodian Ross Turnbull. Youngster Romario Vieira is included and will be looking to continue his progress, while Mallik Wilks starts up front. Blunt can turn to summer signing Billy Whitehouse off the bench if needed.
