Leeds United supporters are ecstatic to see Patrick Bamford named among the substitutes against Aston Villa. Injury woes have plagued the 29-year-old for over a year, one of the main factors behind the Whites' poor form.
It was hoped those concerns would be put to bed this season but he is yet to complete an entire 90 minutes in 2022-23. However, Bamford is back on the bench for the must-not-lose clash at Villa Park.
The Whites are aiming to end a six-game winless run across all competitions. Just two victories in 16 outings reads ominous viewing for Leeds fans, with the club sitting just two points above the relegation zone.
