Leeds United U21s will be targeting Papa John’s Trophy progression this evening when they travel to Gresty Road to take on Crewe Alexandra. Michael Skubala’s side have lost just once this season and they’ll be keen to showcase their talents by seeing off another League Two team.
The Whites have already beaten Tranmere Rovers, winning 5-3 at Prenton Park last month, before losing comfortably against a strong Bolton Wanderers side a fortnight ago. A win would guarantee Leeds a spot in the knockout stages this evening, but a score draw could also be enough if Leeds were to win the resulting penalty shootout and pick up two points.
Skubala will look to name a strong side this evening and one or two experienced names might be involved, too. Kristoffer Klaesson looks set to make his fifth appearance for the U21s this evening as he looks to keep himself sharp.
