Jesse Marsch will expect to see progress from his Leeds United outfit as they take on Warren Moon’s Brisbane Roar at the Cbus Super Stadium in Gold Coast. The Whites have trained twice in Australia since making the 10,200 mile journey from Elland Road last weekend and this morning they will take on A-League opposition as they continue to prepare themselves for the start of the new Premier League season.
United fans caught a glimpse of new signing Marc Roca last week against Blackpool, but the likes of Brenden Aaronson, Rasmus Kristensen, Tyler Adams, Darko Gyabi and Luis Sinisterra could all have a role to play today. Skipper Liam Cooper won’t be involved as he battles with a minor Achilles issue, but Marsch will be keen to see as many players as possible get some much-needed game time.
The Leeds boss kept his cards close to his chest regarding specific plans for the contest, but he is keen to see growth in a number of key areas against the Roar.
