[baggy]

Away. Fierce home support. Night game. Awful conditions. Last game of the weekend with pressure we have to win. This is going to be a real tough one...

 

[Gray]

What i think Pep will go with:

Ederson

Walker - Akanji - Laporte - Cancelo

Rodri

Gundo - KDB

Mahrez - Haaland - Foden

Ake for Cancelo.

That’s a real ‘glass half empty’ way of looking at the fixture imho.

Going to Elland Road is nothing like the apparent kryptonite for our team that say going to Anfield is, and Leeds aren’t anywhere near as good a team, so (famous last words) I’m less worried about the impact of the “atmosphere”.

Away? Shouldn’t be an issue

A match after the sun’s gone down? It’s happened before.

Awful conditions? I’m not sure what the weather forecast is for Leeds tonight, but it’ll be same for both teams and pitch quality in the PL is pretty amazing these days.

We should be ok.

Don't understand the negativity on here. These cuntz are getting a serious shoeing tonight.

In one of my first jobs many moons ago after 1st leaving school, my boss said City were always known as a bunch of moaning sods. Maybe its in the dna of some.

Sainsburys , white rose shopping centre , middle aisle. Drysalters is boarded up and next 2 nearest are still scrapping with stragglers from millwall 4 yrs ago.

That must have resembled the bar scene from Star Wars!

Feeling pretty confident about tonight! Leeds are not full strength either so our quality should definitely show! 3-1 City

 

[Karl8]

I’m fairly optimistic for tonight. I agree the Leeds crowd will be giving it out but I’m confident once they witness our possession based game and notice their inability to have the ball for any meaningful periods, they’ll quieten down. Our superior class will shine through, and I predict a 1-3 win for us with Alfie’s lad getting at least one. Cmon you blue boys !

They've got a fair few injuries. Tyler Adams suspended is also a big loss for them
