Leeds United v Brentford: Full confirmed lineups for Premier League fixture at Elland Road

Leeds United and Brentford have submitted their starting lineups for the Premier League fixture at Elland Road on August 30, 2026, with both clubs set to meet in the 2026-27 season match tonight.

Brentford manager Andrews used the Carabao Cup to rotate his squad, leaving only Nathan Collins, Vitaly Janelt and Dango Ouattara from the side that had beaten Tottenham 3-0 in the Premier League for the midweek trip to Birmingham City; that rotated XI nonetheless recorded a 6-1 victory at St Andrew’s. Andrews is expected to reintroduce several regulars for the visit to Elland Road.

Leeds enter the match as slight favourites and will face a boisterous home crowd for their first home game of the season after opening with two away fixtures at Nottingham Forest. Leeds began their Premier League campaign with a 1-0 win at the City Ground, registering 45% possession and three shots on goal, with Anton Stach’s dramatic strike deciding the game. The Whites also beat Nottingham Forest 2-0 in the second round of the EFL Cup tonight.

Leeds United Starting XI: Trafford (GK), Bogle, Justin, Muharemovic, Rodon, Bijol, Ampadu, Stach, Okafor, Aaronson, Calvert-Lewin. Bench: Cairns (GK), Gudmundsson, Elvedi, Longstaff, Tanaka, Gnonto, James, Wilson, Nmecha.

Brentford Starting XI: Kelleher (GK), Kayode, Collins, Ajer, Lewis-Potter, Sangare, Janelt, Schade, Anthony, Thiago. Bench: Valdimarsson, Hickey, Henry, Yarmoliuk, Ouattara, Wilson, Carvalho, Diouf, Schuster.

Both teams won their respective recent fixtures and will be aiming to secure a second successive victory when they meet at Elland Road tonight.
