Leeds seek Brighton breakthrough as Elvedi could get first Premier League start

Leeds United visit Brighton & Hove Albion seeking to end bleak streaks. They have not scored there in 14 years and are still waiting for a first win at the AMEX Stadium.

Even a goal will be celebrated, and the visitors may fancy three points. According to Leeds Live, the hosts have a score of players out, while Daniel Farke is without Joe Rodon for at least two months with a hamstring injury.

That could see Nico Elvedi handed his first Premier League start. Whether deadline-day arrivals Melvin Bard and Jean-Matteo Bahoya make the squad remains to be seen amid a quick midweek turnaround.

Leeds are unbeaten this season after rescuing a 1-1 draw against Brentford last Sunday. They have the chance to record back-to-back away top-flight wins for the first time since 2022.

The squad travelled south last night to ensure a good night's rest before this afternoon's game.

Those who do play must try to end those two barren runs.
