Bristol City vs Leeds United team news
Leeds have suffered yet another injury blow ahead of the match with Largie Ramazani set for four-six weeks on the sidelines.
The exciting forward suffered ankle ligament damage against Watford – after scoring the opening goal – and has now joined Max Wober, Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev on the injury list.
Farke said in his pre-match press conference: “Sadly bad news with him. Twisted his ankle. Sadly it’s a serious ligament injury.
“Doesn’t need surgery but will be out four-to-six weeks. Best case last week of November.”
Junior Firpo will also miss the match with suspension after picking up his fifth booking of the season against the Hornets.
Referee and officials
- Referee: James Linington
- Assistants: Andrew Fox and Greg Read
- Fourth Official: Dean Whitestone
Prediction
Despite the mounting injuries, Leeds have managed to hit a bit of form over the last week and need to maintain it to keep pace in the title race with Burnley and Sunderland.
Ramazani’s injury is a blow but the recently returned duo of Dan James and Manor Solomon are at least on hand to take his place.
Bristol are a difficult team to beat but they struggle picking up three points themselves, having drawn four of their last five matches.
If Leeds keep their performance levels high, they should return to Yorkshire with another three points.
Prediction: Bristol City 0-2 Leeds United.
