Leeds Lunchtime Round-Up, Friday 30th October 2026: Predicted XI Debate Builds Ahead of Bournemouth Trip
There's plenty of team-news chat doing the rounds ahead of tomorrow's Premier League trip to the Vitality Stadium. LeedsLive reckon there's a bit of a coin-flip between Harry Wilson and Brenden Aaronson for a starting spot, noting Wilson has only made two Premier League starts since his summer move (LeedsLive). The Yorkshire Evening Post have also put together their predicted XI, pointing to an "extremely harsh" verdict on one player plus a call to make over who partners Ethan Ampadu (Yorkshire Evening Post).
The official club site has shared travel information for supporters making the journey down to Bournemouth for the weekend's game (LeedsUnited.com). There's also an interesting piece on Tanaka, who has opened up an "massive" and emotive debate about an opponent as his own fine run continues (LeedsUnited.com).
Away from the first team, the U21s are preparing for their own match against Stoke City, with a preview up on the club's official website ahead of that fixture (LeedsUnited.com).
That's everything from a relatively quiet lunchtime - plenty of focus on the Bournemouth team selection, so stay tuned for more build-up before Saturday.
