Prior to the match on Sunday, the Cardiff manager gives an open assessment of Leeds.

 

Cardiff City manager Erol Bulut has told Thursday’s press conference  that he is expecting a tough game against Leeds United on Sunday, and said that it is “perfect” that Elland Road is sold out.

So, Leeds are back in the Championship. The start of a new era under the sole ownership of the 49ers, and a new boss back in the dugout. Leeds will be tasked with keeping pace with Leicester, Southampton and Middlesbrough.

Many have left the club – but a whole host of key players such as Tyler Adams, Willy Gnonto and Jack Harrison have remained at Leeds. On Sunday, Leeds will be without Harrison, Adams, Junior Firpo and a couple of other injuries.

 

But a new system, Ethan Ampadu dictating things, Karl Darlow potentially in goal and the return of the likes of Ian Poveda, Cody Drameh, Charlie Cresswell and Dan James from loans – it is a new start. Bulut gave his verdict.

“I’ve read that the stadium will be full on Sunday, which is perfect. It will be difficult playing against Leeds; at home they play well and are strong with their fans behind them. They’re recently relegated so they have a strong team.
