I would go for a 4-3-1-2 formation. Godfrey and Holgate/Mina as centre halves. While Holgate is prone to mistakes he can break out of defence better than Mina, if we break the Leeds high press then we can get at them. Allan, Doucoure and Gbamin in front of back three again with an eye to stopping them running at our defence but again with Gbamin and Doucoure looking to break out of their pressing game. I would go for Gray behind Richy and DCL. With Townsend on the bench we can switch to 4-3-3 if it is going well or Davies if we need a more defensive mid.
Simple but if we continue to put a shift in it just might work.
 
Doucoure and Gbamin will start tomorrow with Godfrey in as well...

I hope...

I think throwing Gbamin in when he hasn't played for three weeks and only played 3 games in two years might be a bit much against Leeds at full throttle at home in front of their fans for the first time.

If he plays in a two that is. In a three I think it could work.
 
I believe this will be his team.

Pickford, Coleman, Holgate, Godfrey, Digne, Iwobi, Gbamin, Allan, Doucouré, Richarlison, Calvert Lewin
 


No Dom or Godfrey in the training vid (though don't know if that's yesterday's session or today (guess it's today))

James, Kean and Gomes also not in it.

Could be resting Dom if he has that knock and not having him train fully in between the games.
