Leeds United prepares to host Newcastle United in Premier League match
Summary

Leeds United faces Newcastle United at Elland Road this Monday in a Premier League fixture. The home side seeks a recovery following a 6-3 defeat against Chelsea in the EFL Cup earlier this week. Manager Daniel Farke is expected to deploy a 3-4-3 formation, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin slated to lead the attacking line. James Trafford is set to return to the starting lineup in goal after being rested during the previous midweek match. The defensive trio of Tarik Muharemovic, Nico Elvedi, and James Justin will anchor the back line, while Ao Tanaka and Ethan Ampadu operate in the central midfield. Leeds looks to improve its form in league play by securing points against the visiting Magpies.
