Leeds v Liverpool Preview (12/9/2021)

This Super Sunday sees Leeds United hosting Liverpool at Elland Road with both sides set to be without key players.

Alisson, Fabinho & Roberto Firmino were all prevented by Liverpool from representing Brazil during the International break whilst winger Raphinha was also barred by the Leeds hierarchy from making what would have been his debut for the Selecao.

Leeds completed the £25million signing of Daniel James from Manchester United on Deadline Day and the Welshman could be the beneficiary of Raphinha’s enforced absence on Sunday.

James was hardly prolific during his 2-year spell in Manchester but the 23-year old has bundles of pace and could cause Andy Robertson problems as the Scot continues to get up to speed following an injury hit start to the campaign.

​Robertson played 86mins for the Reds prior to the International break and featured in all 3 World Cup Qualifiers for Scotland to varying degrees of success.

The Tartan Army were well beaten by Denmark last Wednesday before important victories over Moldova and Austria to keep them in the hunt for an automatic spot in Qatar next November. 

Craig Pawson will be the man in the middle on Sunday and the Yorkshireman dished out no fewer than 8 cards during his 2 Premier League fixtures so far this season.
