Leeds predicted lineup vs Man City - Premier League

Leeds welcome Man City to Elland Road in the Premier League as Jesse Marsch's side look to ease their relegation concerns.

The Yorkshiremen were held to a goalless draw at Crystal Palace last time out, which moved them five points clear of safety.

However, Marsch is acutely aware that his side could be dragged into a dramatic relegation tussle with games against Arsenal and Chelsea to follow the visit of Man City this weekend.

In the meantime, here's how Leeds could shape up.

Illan Meslier (GK) - Has endeared himself to Marsch with his ball-playing ability out of defence.

Luke Ayling (RB) - Endured a torrid time with injuries this season and he will be cherishing every moment on the pitch between now and the end of the campaign.

Diego Llorente (CB) - Impressed in the draw with Palace as Leeds secured back-to-back clean sheets.

Liam Cooper (CB) - Marsch described the Scotland international as the best captain he's ever worked with.

Stuart Dallas (LB) - Has fond memories against Man City, memorably scoring a double for a ten-man Leeds in a 2-1 win at the Etihad Stadium last season.

Robin Koch (DM) - Likely to come in after replacing Mateusz Klich at the interval at Selhurst Park.

Kalvin Phillips (DM) - Caused a stir among the Crystal Palace faithful with his comments on Wilfried Zaha after Monday's clash.

Raphinha (RM) - Continues to be the difference maker for Leeds, and you can usually rely on him to create or convert a chance.

Rodrigo (AM) - Has netted three times in his last five games, enjoying the most fruitful spell of his Leeds career in front of goal.

Jack Harrison (LM) - Another player who has found his shooting boots in recent weeks, and the extra pace afforded by City should benefit him.

Dan James (ST) - Both Marcelo Bielsa and Marsch have valued his pace in attack, but he has failed to find the net since early February.
