Javi Gracia is under immense pressure to play Willy Gnonto against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday in a must-win match – and here is our predicted XI to face The Cherries.
Leeds are in 16th place after failing to win their past four League games and gaining only one point from a possible 12. Nottingham Forest are ahead on goal difference, with Leicester only a point back in 18th.
Everton are two points behind the Whites. Leeds desperately need a result on Sunday, and it needs to be a win after failing to hold on to a win over Leicester the week before. A better performance than Palace, Liverpool, and Fulham.
But it’s only a point. Leeds requires all three, and Gracia will have to make some difficult decisions. Luis Sinisterra, like Tyler Adams and Stuart Dallas, has been ruled out for the rest of the season. Max Wober has not yet returned to training.
As a result, Gracia is likely to stick with the same back five and holding midfielder. Illan Meslier in goal, alongside Luke Ayling, Robin Koch, Liam Cooper, and Junior Firpo in the back four. In front, Weston McKennie and Marc Roca are seated in midfield.
