Overview
- Leeds host Liverpool at Elland Road on Saturday with a 5:30pm GMT kickoff, broadcast on Sky Sports in the UK and NBC/Peacock in the U.S.
- Arne Slot’s champions have only one win in their past five outings after a 1-1 draw with Sunderland followed a 2-0 victory at West Ham, keeping scrutiny on the manager.
- Mohamed Salah was benched for Liverpool’s last two league games and could be restored, as Slot also weighs choices at left-back (Andy Robertson or Milos Kerkez) and up front (Alexander Isak or Hugo Ekitike).
- Slot confirmed Conor Bradley has returned to the matchday squad, offering a natural right‑back option after recent reliance on Joe Gomez.
- Leeds enter on the back of a 3-1 win over Chelsea, with late decisions expected on forwards Lukas Nmecha (hamstring) and Dominic Calvert‑Lewin (calf), while media reports continue to link Salah with renewed Saudi interest ahead of January.
