Confirmed: Our team to face Leeds

The Reds drew 1-1 against Wolverhampton Wanderers in our last outing, and goalscorer Joshua Zirkzee drops to the bench, with Leny Yoro coming in.

Amorim suggested in his pre-match press conference that it was unlikely any of his injured players would be able to return in West Yorkshire, so Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo and Mason Mount are all still missing.

Matthijs de Ligt and Harry Maguire haven't played since November and are also out, while Amad, Noussair Mazraoui and Bryan Mbeumo are still at the Africa Cup of Nations.

The result is a youthful bench once more for the Reds, with Bendito Mantato in the squad again following his senior debut last Tuesday.

Godwill Kukonki is a fresh face from the clash with Rob Edwards' side at Old Trafford, as he replaces Chido Obi on the bench.

"It was just thinking about what we are going to face today," Amorim told TNT Sports, when asked about his selection.

"Trying to make the team comfortable to win the game and we don't have a lot of options, but we are ready to be competitive."
