Fixture: Leeds United vs Reading
Competition: Championship
Kick-off: 15:00 (UK time)

Leeds United have confirmed their starting side and substitutes to play host to Jaap Stam's Reading in a Championship fixture at Elland Road this afternoon.

Thomas Christiansen's men are on a run of poor form and have lost three of their last four Championship matches, meaning they will be desperate to return to winning ways against the struggling Royals.




Leeds continue to be without striker Caleb Ekuban, who is recovering from a foot injury.

Boss Christiansen has made a change in goal, with Andy Lonergan coming in, while in defence the Dane picks Pontus Jansson and Liam Cooper as the centre-back duo.

Further up the pitch, the Leeds manager goes with Eunan O'Kane and Kalvin Phillips in midfield, with Kemar Roofe, Pablo Hernandez and Samu Saiz behind striker Pierre-Michel Lasogga.

If Christiansen needs to make any changes throughout the course of the game he can look to his bench, where he has a number of options, including Hadi Sacko and Stuart Dallas.
