Confirmed Leeds starting XI v Everton

Leeds United have confirmed their starting XI for the Premier League clash against Everton on Saturday afternoon.

Marcelo Bielsa has made changes after that embarrassing 5-1 defeat at Manchester United last weekend.

Confirmed on Twitter prior to kick-off at Elland Road, the Whites have brought back Junior Firpo and Kalvin Phillips into the line-up.

Leeds finally welcome back their fans after 17 long years without a packed Elland Road for Premier League football.

Some of these players have never felt the full home matchday experience, with Rodrigo and Raphinha two of those.

We can already imagine the Brazilian flying down the wing with the crowd behind him, it is giving us goosebumps.

Hopefully, they spur us on to those three points and really make it an afternoon to remember in West Yorkshire.

This is borderline must-win already.

After doubts started to creep in after that huge defeat last week, Bielsa will be eager to redeem himself with a big win of his own.

Three points from two games would equal last season’s total at this stage, and we are after small improvements every single year.

Rafa Benitez has created a solid base with his new-look Toffees squad, and it won’t be an easy job, but it’s time to welcome these fans back with a bang.
