Senior trio axed in Heck 4-2-3-1: This Leeds XI will rip Bristol City to shreds
Felix Wiedwald (Goalkeeper) – Heckingbottom is not going to cause a massive stir by dropping the Leeds number one, who has had a decent season and is establishing himself as a capable number one.
Vurnon Anita (Right-back) – With Berardi and the injured Luke Ayling unavailable, it is even more of a mystery why the experienced former Newcastle man still can’t get a game. That must now change, and the Dutchman should be recalled at the expense of fellow senior player Stuart Dallas.
Matthew Pennington (Centre-back) – With Liam Cooper serving the final match of a four-game ban, the on-loan Everton player is will get the chance to continue the good impression he made at Bramall Lane. Should he deliver the goods again, Pennington must stay in the team.
Pontus Jansson (Centre-back) – Talisman, defensive leader and arguably the team’s best player, Jansson will be key to keeping Bristol at bay. But he must be careful as another yellow card will mean a two-match ban.
Laurens de Bock (Left-back) – One of the new January recruits is yet to wow fans but he looks a solid option at left-back and must keep his place.
