How West Bromwich Albion could line up against Leeds United

How West Brom could line up against Leeds

Sam Allardyce will take a number of things into consideration before naming his West Bromwich Albion side for the Premier League meeting with Leeds United.

The Baggies have already been relegated to the Championship, while it has been announced that Allardyce will depart The Hawthorns at the end of the season.

However, West Brom can benefit financially if they can finish ahead of Fulham, something which can only happen if they record three points at Elland Road.

Allardyce could name the majority of the team which performed well for large periods against West Ham United in midweek.

Nevertheless, the likes of Grady Diangana and Karlan Grant, who could emerge as key players next season, may be handed a chance in the starting lineup.

In a bid to cope with Marcelo Bielsa's style of play, Ainsley Maitland-Niles may be preferred to Conor Gallagher in the centre of midfield.

Dara O'Shea is in contention for a return to the defence, potentially at the expense of Darnell Furlong.

Branislav Ivanovic and Robert Snodgrass will play no part of this fixture due to long-term injuries.

West Brom possible starting XI: Johnstone; Furlong, Ajayi, Bartley, Townsend; Phillips, Maitland-Niles, Yokuslu, Diangana; Pereira; Grant
