Leeds United travel north on Sunday, looking to maintain a December surge that has seen them move away from the relegation zone. Daniel Farke’s side occupy 16th place but arrive as the division’s form team outside the top six. Confidence is at an all-time high after a 4-1 thrashing of Crystal Palace. With top scorer Dominic Calvert-Lewin in career-best form, the Whites will be confident of becoming the first team to take three points away from the Stadium of Light this season.Leeds United Team NewsDaniel Farke has confirmed that Sean Longstaff and Daniel James remain unavailable as they continue their respective recoveries. There is, however, a “small chance” that striker Lukas Nmecha could return to the matchday squad if he completes team training sessions successfully after a hamstring injury. Farke is likely to name a settled side to maintain the rhythm that has produced two wins and two draws in their last four matches.The tactical focus will again be on the partnership of Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Noah Okafor in the final third. Calvert-Lewin is chasing a slice of club history, looking to score in six consecutive Premier League games for the first time in his career. In midfield, Ethan Ampadu will lead the side alongside Anton Stach and Brenden Aaronson, while Jayden Bogle and Gabriel Guðmundsson will provide the width from the wing-back positions.Leeds United Predicted LineupLeeds United predicted XI: Perri; Rodon, Bijol, Struijk; Bogle, Aaronson, Ampadu, Stach, Guðmundsson; Calvert-Lewin, OkaforWhen will the match kick off?The Premier League fixture takes place at the Stadium of Light on Sunday, 28 December 2025.
