Farke’s side continued their build up towards the new Championship campaign with last weekend’s clash against Monaco in York for which new signing Ethan Amapdu was immediately handed a Whites debut from the start.
Amapdu once again lines up for this evening’s clash against Forest and is joined in the XI by Sam Byram who makes his first start upon returning to train with the club following his release from Norwich City.
Byram replaces Leo Hjelde at left back as part of five changes as Charlie Cresswell, Jamie Shackleton, Joe Gelhardt and Patrick Bamford also all start. Pascal Struijk, Archie Gray and Georginio Rutter all drop to the bench whilst Crysencio Summerville is not involved. Willy Gnonto also stays on the bench.
Leeds United v Nottingham Forest: Meslier, Ayling, Cooper, Cresswell, Byram, Ampadu, Shackleton, James, Sinisterra, Gelhardt, Bamford. Subs: Klaesson, Van Den Heuvel, Hjelde, Struijk, Gyabi, Gray, Bate, Poveda, Rutter, Joseph, Gnonto.
