This should be a Leeds win if we match our fine form this year so far and I think the extra motivation for wanting sweet revenge for our defeat to Preston on Boxing day will spur the lads on to clinch another 3 points which I don't take for granted and expect Preston will park a bus or two so I'll go Leeds 1 Preston 0

Good news is that the u18s won 4-0 and now are in the last 32 of the Youth Cup. Not a lot of good news to some, but every bit is welcome.
Frake has 23 players fit to pick from so to a large extent the 20 pick themselves.
I cannot see two goalkeepers on the bench, so I agree with the sensible opinion a few players coming in would be welcome. Ever hopeful I think a couple will come in Though, I believe the players turned out will be good enough to win.
The bench is balanced allowing like-for-like substitutions to keep the pressure up on the opposition.

Thanks for the MDT as always, Earl!

Three points and a clean sheet please, as always!

Looking forward to this one!

COME ON LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDS!

22 fouls, 5 yellow cards, disgusting antics to get Meslier sent off ...
Time to get our own back.

6-0

I have promised Mrs HOF that I will sleep through this, but with the temperature in the high 70’s at 11.00 p.m., I can’t see that happening. If Byram plays at right back and takes care of Millar, I think we avoid the issues we had with him in the last game. I also admit quietly that we look more balanced with Bamford starting. There. I said it quietly and my soul is not burning in hell. I think a nervy 2-1 win will do it, with Cree opening the scoring, Millar finding a gap, and Ampadu on the end of a set piece late on to calm the nerves. Thanks for the thread, Earl!

no shame in wanting paddy in the team, he has had sooooooo much bad luck with silly injuries, most have stupidly written him off.

Play him yes, keep him no. Would offload him and Geldhart and go and get Whittaker before Brentford do.

Need to be very wary of Keane and Miller up front but Preston missing their regular Keeper.

Here we go
