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

Leeds United have revealed their side and substitutes to play host to Garry Monk's Birmingham City side at Elland Road in a Championship clash this afternoon.

Marcelo Bielsa saw his side thrash Preston North End 3-0 in midweek league action and Leeds start as firm favourites to swat aside a Blues side yet to record a league win this term.




Bielsa remains without defender Gaetano Berardi, midfielder Pablo Hernandez and strikers Kemar Roofe and Patrick Bamford.

Bailey Peacock-Farrell lines up in goal, while at the back Bielsa picks Liam Cooper and Pontus Jansson. Barry Douglas and Luke Ayling play, while Kalvin Phillips also starts. Mateusz Klich plays, while Ezgjan Alioski, Samu Saiz and Jack Harrison support Tyler Roberts.

The Leeds boss has options on the bench to change things if needed, including Adam Forshaw and Tom Pearce.
