The Leeds winger has been hugely impressive in recent games.
There is no doubt about Ezgjan Alioski’s quality, with the Macedonian capable of making a major impact for Leeds United whether deployed on the right flank or the left.
Possessing much pace and flair, Alioski, who joined from Lugano in the summer, has been in superb form of late and has scored four goals in his last four Championship games.
Leeds, who beat Barnsley 2-0 last time out, are back in action when they host Aston Villa tomorrow night and if they use Alioski’s attributes wisely they have a good chance of prevailing.
Alan Hutton is vastly experienced but the Villa defender lacks pace and can be easily targeted. Although Leeds manager Thomas Christiansen has the option of using Alioski on the right wing, he would be best served by continuing to play him on the left flank, where he can torment Hutton.
Currently in eighth place in the Championship table, the prospect of getting a place in the play-offs this season now doesn’t seem so far-fetched for Leeds but a lot of work is required if that objective is to be achieved.
Alioski can certainly have a major part to play in proceedings and putting him up against Hutton could be pivotal in terms of ensuring that Leeds can prevail past Villa.
