Stoke City host Leeds United in the fifth matchweek of the 2019-20 Championship season, where the bottom-placed team will take on the leaders of the Championship. Stoke are yet to win a match, while Leeds have won three and drawn one in their four matches in the league.
The Potters have had a miserable run in the league so far, and the Whites are the overwhelming favourites to win this game.
Stoke City: Jack Butland; Tommy Smith, Danny Batth, Liam Lindsay, James McClean; Joe Allen, Ryan Woods, Sam Clucas, Tom Ince; Scott Hogan, Lee Gregory
Leeds United: Kiko Casilla; Stuart Dallas, Liam Cooper, Ben White, Ezgjan Alioski; Kalvin Phillips, Adam Forshaw, Mateusz Klich; Helder Costa, Pablo Hernandez, Patrick Bamford
For Stoke City, their goalkeeper Jack Butland, who has not been in great form over the last few games, will be vital for them against Leeds. The English goalkeeper will come up against a strong Leeds attacking unit. Scott Hogan will have to put away any of the chances that comes his way for Stoke, having scored twice this season.
For Leeds United, Pablo Hernandez will be their key player, who has kicked off the season in style, scoring twice and making one assist. Upfront, Patrick Bamford will be vital for Leeds and will hope to put in a good performance with his place in the team under pressure from Eddie Nketiah, who is on loan from Arsenal.
Stoke City 0-3 Leeds United
Leeds United have one of the strongest midfield in the Championship, who will be up against a poor Stoke team that has struggled badly this season and they are likely to dominate the match and goals will follow.
