Leeds Utd v Burton Albion Matchday Thread

Afternoon All,

We're back after the awesomely inspiring International Break it's the real bread n butter stuff again and a chance for everyone to meet up with the legend that is JonnyLA.............Sorry I can't be there
The visit of Burton to a pretty near sell out Elland Road should be the ideal opportunity to keep the run going

Venue...Elland Road...Date..9th Sept...Kick Off.. 1500hrs

Team News
Leeds United could give debuts to deadline day signings Pawel Cibicki and Pierre-Michel Lasogga, while Jay-Roy Grot could make his first start.
Midfielder Eunan O'Kane (groin) should be available despite missing Republic of Ireland's games with injury.

Burton
Burton Albion left-back Stephen Warnock (ankle) could return, but on-loan Leeds midfielder Luke Murphy is ineligible.
Luke Varney is a doubt (hamstring) and although Hope Akpan has served a suspension, he is injured.

Match facts
This is just the third league meeting between the teams - both sides won a game each last season, with Leeds winning 2-0 at Elland Road in October.
Nigel Clough has won seven of his eight managerial encounters with Leeds, with his only blemish in that time Burton's 2-0 loss last October.
Leeds could become only the sixth team in Football League history to draw their opening three home league games of a season 0-0 and the first since Burnley in 1997/98, who were then managed by Chris Waddle.
Burton have kept just five clean sheets in their last 35 league games, though four of those shutouts have been in away fixtures.
Samuel Saiz has been directly involved in six goals in all competitions this season; a joint-high among Championship players, along with Bristol City's Bobby Reid.
The Brewers have had fewer shots on target than any other side in the Championship this season (12), scoring just four goals from their opening five league games.

So that's it then, apart from a couple of comments that young Mr Clough made that I think might prove a talking point .............

"They had a greet season under Garry Monk just missing out on the play-offs. They have carried some of that confidence into the season. They have lost Chris Wood but have brought one or two very good foreigners in."

"It is always a great atmosphere. We ended up losing 2-0 late on last season but should have won the game. I hope we can play as well again this season."
Oh you think you should have won ??? Well you didn't !!!

_____________________________________________________

My prediction a tasty 3-0 Dallas, Saiz and the Grot....... with the atmosphere and " one or two foreign players" proving too much for Burton
