How Leeds United could line-up after extended Premier League break as injured players return

Leeds United could have a while to wait before their next Premier League outing. The Whites have already seen Monday’s clash with Nottingham Forest postponed following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, but it seems next weekend’s contest against Manchester United is in doubt, too.

The game at Old Trafford is scheduled to be played on Sunday, September 18, but with the state funeral set to take place around that date it is thought there are policing and other issues to contend with. As such, the Whites’ next outing of any kind could come after the international break at home against Aston Villa on October 2.

However, with players returning to full fitness from injury, Leeds’ starting XI could look very different to one that took on Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium next weekend.
