Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Leeds United could line up against Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League on Saturday.

Leeds United will be bidding to continue their impressive run of form when they travel to Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

The Whites, who are currently ninth in the table, will again be without the services of captain Liam Cooper this weekend as the centre-back serves the final game of his three-match suspension.

Adam Forshaw is also still unavailable, while head coach Marcelo Bielsa ruled out key attacker Raphinha when questioned on the Brazilian during his press conference on Thursday.

Rodrigo Moreno has been cleared to return and should be on the bench, while Helder Costa has overcome a back problem and is expected to again feature in the starting XI.

Bielsa could ultimately decide to select the same side that took to the field for the goalless draw with Manchester United last weekend.

As a result, Tyler Roberts should again act as the support for lone forward Patrick Bamford, with Costa and Jack Harrison operating in the wide positions for the visitors.

Mateusz Klich and Robin Koch both appeared off the bench against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side last time out and should again be among the substitutes at the Amex.

Leeds possible starting lineup: Meslier; Ayling, Llorente, Struijk, Alioski; Costa, Phillips, Dallas, Harrison; Roberts; Bamford
