Where to watch 16 Leeds United stars in the November international break

Add as preferred source on Google

Leeds United have 16 players away on international duty in the November international break and here is how you can watch their fixtures.

It’s the final international break of 2025 and it’ll come as a welcome relief for Leeds United, who could use the time out after a disastrous few weeks of Premier League action.

The good start to life in the top flight has now disintegrated following resounding defeats to Nottingham Forest, Brighton and Burnley, with the fixture list getting a whole lot tougher once action resumes.

Daniel Farke’s job is under immense pressure, with many calling for Leeds to make a change in manager during the international break.

Whether it be Farke or a new coach, they won’t have much time to work with the squad as severa important members are away on international duty over the next fortnight for crucial World Cup qualifiers.

Here’s where you can watch them in action.

Leeds’ Welsh quartet had a pretty terrible international break last time out as they were battered by England and Belgium. Joe Rodon scored against Belgium but Karl Darlow made several mistakes over the two games and Ethan Ampadu struggled.

Yet, they are in a good position to finish second in the group and will do so if they defeat Liechtenstein away and North Macedonia at home. Wales are near-guaranteed a play-off spot even if they finish third, but second place will give them a better seeding.

It’s crunch time for Sweden, who are staring down the barrel of missing out on a second World Cup in succession.

Disastrous defeats at home to Switzerland and Kosovo in October mean there’s no room for error as Graham Potter takes charge of Gabriel Gudmundsson’s nation for the first time.

Jaka Bijol is finally going into an international break with some Premier League minutes under his belt, even if he hasn’t lived up to his price tag at Elland Road yet.

The centre-back’s Slovenia still have an outside chance of making it to the Play-offs themselves, but will need to win both their matches – having not won any yet – over the next week.

Japan have long qualified for the World Cup, so their international break will be a bit more comfortable, even if Ao Tanaka wants to impress to ensure he gets a spot in North America.

Bulgaria sit rock bottom of Group E without a single point to their name, so Ilia Gruev won’t be heading to the World Cup but the nation will take part in their final two qualifiers.
