Leeds United are back in Championship action once again on Tuesday night as their seemingly relentless schedule of fixtures rampages on.

The Whites face the long travel down to Wales to take on Swansea City away from home as they go in search of a seventh straight win in the division.

Daniel Farke’s side have won their last six matches in succession in the second tier and are heading into this match off the back of a 3-0 win over Rotherham at Elland Road on Saturday.

Patrick Bamford’s first goal and two goals from Crysencio Summerville sealed the three points for the home team in a convincing win.

The German head coach may alter the starting lineup from the victory over the Millers due to their demanding schedules in the Championship and the FA Cup, which sees them play Chelsea later this month.

In light of this, the following is FFC’s projected lineup for Leeds’ Tuesday night matchup against the Swans in Wales…1Illan Meslier

Starting off between the sticks, number one Illan Meslier should be selected from the start. He kept his 12th clean sheet of the season in his 29th league appearance against Rotherham.

2Connor Roberts

The first alteration to the starting lineup might be at right-back, where deadline-day acquisition Connor Roberts might make his full Leeds debut against his old team.

He may be dying to make his club debut after entering the game for 15 minutes against the Millers to sample the action at Elland Road.

Roberts may find that a first start at the club where he began his career and went through the academy is the best option because he is familiar with the environment and should feel confident enough to get started right away.

Archie Grey, who defeated Rotherham in five of his eight bouts, may find this cruel, but it would offer the

3Joe Rodon

At the centre of the defence might be another Wales international.Since joining the Whites on loan from Tottenham Hotspur, Joe Rodon has been a key player at the back for the team, making 28 league appearances with a 66% dual success rate.

4Ethan Ampadu

To complete a Welsh trio at the back for Leeds, Ethan Ampadu could continue at centre-back. The midfielder by trade has helped the team to six wins and five clean sheets in six appearances as a central defender in all competitions in 2024.

5Junior Firpo

Sam Byram will not be eligible for selection against the Swans due to a muscle injury, according to Farke, while Jamie Shackleton will also be out due to personal circumstances.

As a result, Firpo is the only clear choice to start at left back, and the former Barcelona player should continue to be in the starting lineup.

His deflected cross set up Bamford’s goal to open the scoring on Saturday, following an incredible lung-bursting run down the left flank.

6Ilia Gruev

In the middle of the park, Ilia Gruev’s recent performances suggest that the Bulgaria international deserves to maintain his place in the side for Leeds. He has recorded a Sofascore rating of 7.1 or higher in seven of his last eight appearances in all competitions.

7Glen Kamara

Glen Kamara, a Finland international, should start in midfield alongside the former Werder Bremen player because the Whites’ preferred style of play depends heavily on his ability to retain the ball.

The central midfielder rarely gives the ball away, which helps his team achieve Farke’s goal of dominating and controlling the game.

This season in the Championship, Kamara has completed 93.2% of his passes attempted, ranking him among the top 2% of midfielders in the competition.

8Wilfried Gnonto

Wilfried Gnonto should line up in the attack once again, based on his recent performances on the right side of the attack. He represents Italy.

In the victory over Rotherham, he did neither score or provide an assist, but his deft pass into the area allowed Crysencio Summerville to win a penalty kick and score his second goal of the game. The winger had scored in his previous two starts, against Bristol City and Plymouth Argyle, before to then.

But according to Farke, Daniel James is back in training and eligible for selection, so he’ll give competition for the flank starting berth.

9Georginio Rutter

Georginio Rutter should be selected in the number ten position after another impressive display as a creative force for Leeds against the Millers.

The French magician made four key passes and created one ‘big chance’, which was rewarded with an assist for Summerville’s first goal, to take his tally to 19 ‘big chances’ created in 30 league matches this season.

He has the ability in possession to consistently unlock opposition defences to create high-quality opportunities for his teammates, and the 21-year-old whiz will be hoping to do so once again against the Swans.

10Crysencio Summerville

Farke’s choice to start Crysencio Summerville in every Championship match may be the easiest one to make because the Dutch forward is still a bright spot for the team in the closing third.

In the victory over Rotherham, the 22-year-old prodigy scored two more goals to bring his total in league games for Leeds this season to 14 goals and seven assists.

11Joel Piroe

The last change to the starting lineup might be Patrick Bamford being moved to the bench to give Joel Piroe, who was formerly labelled “dangerous” by journalist Josh Bunting, a chance to perform well against his old team.

As seen in the video below, Leeds’ English forward did score against Rotherham, albeit it was contentious since it looked like he used the top of his arm to drive the ball into the net.

Bamford lost five of his six duels while playing without an arm, making only 63% of his passes complete and failing to generate a single opportunity for his teammates.

With 10 goals this season, Farke can now choose Piroe over him because of the upcoming schedule that demands every player to contribute.

The Dutch star could be eager to score in Wales after leading Swansea to 19 league goals the previous season.
