Leeds United vs Wolves

Leeds United play host to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday as both teams want a strong start to their league campaigns.

It was a hat-trick of assists for new boy Aaronson, with the youngster doing well to beat his marker down the wing and find Bamford in the box. FIFA 22 predicts a 4-3 Leeds win over Wolves after an eventful game, with goals from Bamford either side of Rodrigo and Harrison's strikes securing the victory. But, Leeds would soon re-open the two-goal gap and find a fourth. Only a few minutes after half-time, Bamford equalised for Leeds and grabbed his first goal of the season. It would've been harder to miss as he volleyed the ball into the bottom corner, leaving Sa with no chance. Both sides lined up in their 2021/22 kits as FIFA 22 does not provide the 2022/23 ones.

Wolves get their 2022/23 Premier League season up and running on Saturday 6th August as Bruno Lage's side face Leeds United at 3pm.

Can Jesse Marsch and his American duo of Brenden Aaronson and Tyler Adams get off to a winning start?

Nelson Semedo will also miss out but Wolves have plenty of defensive depth to cope with his absence. The biggest miss will be the heart of the defense Liam Cooper who is still carrying an Achilles injury from the offseason. Without a traditional striker available, Neto and Podence will share the load atop the attack but the team usually struggles to score when Jimenez isn't available. Leeds' summer business has been in direct contrast to that of Wolves. Bruno Lage needs attacking reinforcements after his side only scored 38 goals last season but instead Fabio Silva was loaned to Belgium and Nathan Collins has been the only addition. With Leeds being defensively suspect, can they kick off the season on a positive note? After avoiding relegation last season, expectations are high for Jesse Marsch and Leeds United. The pressure of securing Premier League safety has been replaced with the pressure of making new signings work after being backed heavily by the board during the summer.

Phil Hay has predicted the starting XI of Leeds United for the Premier League showdown with Wolves at Elland Road on Saturday afternoon.

Having a fully fit Bamford leading the line will transform the side too, and with Joe Gelhardt also ready to come on, we should look back to our most dangerous selves in this one. Neto will be the man to watch with Morgan Gibbs-White and Daniel Podence expected to also start, something our back four should hopefully relish. Of course, we would have loved to have had the likes of Dan James and Luis Sinisterra available to add more firepower in the final third but we have enough.

Expressandstar.com brings you live coverage of Wolves' opening day trip to Elland Road.

Leeds United came from behind to record a morale-boosting opening day Premier League win, running out 2-1 winners against Wolves.

Even seeing him on the pitch for a sustained period of time was a bonus for the club’s top striker, but he was a split-second short of full sharpness on a few first-half attacks. Busy and threatening from the off, and his pressing to win the ball back high was a huge part of Rodrigo’s equaliser. Probably third-best of the three attacking midfielders in the first half but followed Aaronson in snapping at the heels of Wolves defenders to spring Rodrigo for his goal, and put in a beautiful cross late in the period that was just out of Rodrigo and Bamford’s reach. Crashed into one first half challenge to the delight of the supporters in the stands and was just about the pick of the defenders. Surprisingly bullied off the ball by Pedro Neto in the build up to the Wolves opener. Stepped out from the back and gave away possession in the build up to the opening goal, then was out of position as Hwang nodded down at the back post to assist.

He brightened up a little towards the end of the half and was much more imposing in the second. Had a chance to clear Wolves' lines prior to Rodrigo slamming home the equaliser, though. The midfield maestro started the move which led to Wolves' early goal, with a superb pass into Neto's path. Leeds might've added another before the end had Bamford not been denied by a superb Sa save, but it was defeat to begin the new season nevertheless. Their movement off the ball was good, Neves pulled strings, but they were devoid of a killer pass, a key opening and so Leeds always had them at arm's length. They built up a head of steam and Leeds' failure to constantly relieve the pressure prompted an angst around Elland Road.

Rodrigo and a Rayan Ait-Nouri own goal delivered an opening day victory for Leeds United against Wolves, with Brenden Aaronson starring in victory.

Klich replaced Rodrigo, and instantly Leeds seemed to have reasonable control of the ball. A terrific debut performance from Aaronson, who was at the centre of everything Leeds did positively. The French keeper had a busy day at the office but ensured his team was in the game. However, in a swift attacking move, debutant Aaronson forced an own-goal via Ait-Nouri, to give Leeds the decisive strike of the match. However, Leeds then caught Wolves out in the 24th minute as Rodrigo fired a shot past Jose Sa to equalise. The game did have a fast start courtesy of Leeds United, which was soon dampened by Pascal Struijk’s error.

We want to play with the ball, and there are plenty of games in the previous season that we don't dominate the game in the same way. "Wolves pushed the game in a big way at the start of the second half, and we had to hang on and fight. It's not just about the ball, it is about being aggressive in the final third to find chances." We came here with big confidence because the pre-season was good, we have confidence to play in this system," said Lage. "The work has been really good in pre-season, and we are adapting more to the way that I would like to see us play the game, and in moments like this, you need validation. "It was easier than some of our matches last season when we had to wait until the last seconds of the match. "We did quite well with and against the ball. So from the first half until the end of the game we have a lot of time to shake hands to apologise. It didn't happen and in the end it's more difficult to accept because we have a long time to do that. The second half was our best period, we had 20 or 30 minutes where we dominated. His wait for a deputy striker goes on with less than a month of the transfer window to go. There was a contentious moment less than 10 minutes later as Sa collided with Kristensen in the area after recklessly coming off his line to claim a cross.
