Leeds United will face Championship rivals Blackburn Rovers in the EFL Cup on Tuesday evening.
Leeds United head coach Garry Monk has suggested to The Yorkshire Evening Post that he is not going to make too many changes to his team for the match against Blackburn Rovers.
The West Yorkshire outfit will take on Championship rivals Blackburn at Elland Road in the third round of the EFL Cup on Tuesday evening.
The Whites will head into the tie on the back of a 2-0 victory over Cardiff City away from home at the Cardiff City Stadium in the Championship.
Leeds also got the better of Blackburn 2-1 at Elland Road in the league last week.
Head coach Monk has suggested that he is not going to make too many changes for this evening’s game against Rovers.
“I’ll pick a team who can win the game but I want to keep this momentum with us and I want to win the game,” Monk told The Yorkshire Evening Post.
“I’ll pick the strongest team possible in terms of freshness and who’s ready but I don’t particularly want to make too many changes.”
Leeds have won their last two competitive matches, and it would make sense for head coach Monk to play a strong team against Blackburn.
The Whites are not expected to win the EFL Cup this season, but a win against Blackburn is going to help them maintain the momentum.
Rovers will head into the match against Leeds on the back of a 4-2 victory over Rotherham United at Ewood Park in the Championship.
