Leeds United fans' XI for Wolves as Jesse Marsch urged to ring the changes

Leeds United fans have urged Jesse Marsch to make changes for tonight's Carabao Cup trip to Wolves and hand some youngsters a start. The Whites will be looking to progress to the last-16 of the competition this evening but supporters have seemingly made it clear that the club's priority should be the Premier League.

Despite both Kristoffer Klaesson and Joel Robles being fit and available for selection, Illan Meslier is backed to continue in goal. Cody Drameh is the first of four changes in the backline, getting the nod at right back despite playing an hour for the U21s on Monday.

Diego Llorente, Leo Hjelde and Junior Firpo make up the remainder of the defence. Supporters have actually called on a formation change for tonight's tie, moving from Marsch's favoured 4-2-3-1 to a 4-2-2-2.

First choice midfield pairing Marc Roca and Tyler Adams would both be rested in the eyes of Leeds fans, meaning Sam Greenwood and Mateusz Klich come in for starts. Out wide are the only outfield positions that remain the same from Saturday's win over Bournemouth, with Crysencio Summerville and Jack Harrison both getting the nod once again.

In attack, Joe Gelhardt is backed to lead the line alongside Wilfried Gnonto, who was very impressive in his 45 minutes off the bench against Bournemouth. Either one of those two could drop into the number 10 position if required this evening.

Fans' XI: Meslier; Drameh, Llorente, Hjelde, Firpo; Summerville, Klich, Greenwood, Harrison; Gnonto, Gelhardt
