LU Vs CRY Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Inconsistency continues to remain a monkey on Leeds United’s back this season.
On a two match winning spree, Leeds United finally saw their winning spree being curtailed when they took on Everton last week. Despite the best of their efforts, Leeds United faltered in their aspirations of jostling for a second goal on the day.
It left the side with a 2-1 defeat, one which once again emoted towards their major plight this season. A feeble and timid defence, one fraught with vulnerabilities has refrained the club from really making a presence in the echelons of points tally.
However, the side will be quietly confident of reverting to winning ways when they come across a struggling Crystal Palace team today.

Fantasy Team
Goal-Keeper
After failing to win in a month, Crystal Palace have now registered two wins on the bounce. Vincent Guaita has been crucial to those wins with the goal-keeper letting in the meagre sole goal in those matches.
Defenders
Patrick van Aanholt has been equally impressive with his consistent and flawless showings see him earn his fullback spot back.
Leeds United on the other hand will see us opt for a trivalent. Although the club totters its way defensively, this Crystal Palace side bereft of the services of Zaha could easily offer the hosts a much yearned for cleansheet.
It sees us repose faith in Luke Ayling, Pascal Struijk and Liam Cooper.
Midfielders
Now persistently deployed up the park, Stuart Dallas always looks good for a goal to see him find a place in our unit. Raphina who scored against Everton and Jack Harrison who has accrued the five goals will be completing the trio from the club.
Eberechi Eze has now found the net thrice for Crystal Palace along with foraging the three assists as well. Luka Milivojevic and his ability to control the midfield sees him comprise of the duo from the club.
Strikers
Patrick Bamford, Leeds United’s leading scorer completes our team for the day after registering an assist the last time around.
Captain And Vice-Captain
With 11 goals and 5 assists, Bamford is our captain while Raphina is the vice-captain.
