Leeds United vs Coventry City: Early team news and predicted Whites line-up with a full debut anticipated

Leeds United face a busy week ahead, beginning with this afternoon’s home match against Coventry City.

After today’s game, Leeds will hit the road for two away fixtures: a Tuesday night trip to Norwich City followed by a Friday night clash against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.

Sunderland, managed by new boss Regis Le Bris, currently sit in second place in the Championship, four points ahead of sixth-placed Leeds and just one point behind leaders West Brom.

Leeds boosted their play-off hopes with a 2-0 win over bottom-placed Cardiff City last weekend, securing the final play-off spot.

They now face a Coventry side that has earned only five points from their first six games.

Despite this slow start, there are high hopes that Coventry, under manager Mark Robins, will soon be in contention for promotion.

Today at Elland Road, we will provide full coverage, including pre-match build-up, live updates, and post-match reaction.

The game kicks off at 3 pm, though it won’t be televised.

In terms of team news, Leeds will be without Manor Solomon, Max Wober, and Dan James. There are also doubts surrounding Patrick Bamford, Junior Firpo, and Pascal Struijk.

Predicted Leeds XI: Meslier; Bogle, Rodon, Ampadu, Firpo; Gruev, Tanaka; Gnonto, Ramazani, Aaronson, Joseph.

Good afternoon from Elland Road, where the stage is set for a big afternoon as Leeds take on the Sky Blues. The weather is looking clear and bright, perfect for the 3 pm kick-off.
