Leeds United enter today’s match up against 4th place Hull City on the back of three consecutive victories for the second time this season.
If the 90 minutes go their way and the Whites manage to make it four-in-a-row, it will be the first time this has happened since November 2009.
As with every game, the Leeds United team and formation is played out across social media with the Facebookistas and Twitterati all putting forward the formations and players that they’d put out to counter a Hull threat that is real with 18-goal Uruguayan Abel Hernández and six-goal, eight-assist Sam Clucas for Leeds to contend with.
As such, the 3pm kick-off comes secondary to the 2pm team news with fans eagerly awaiting the release of who’s made the starting 11 and the bench.

The Leeds United starting line-up contains two changes from the side that started the hard-fought, at times sparkling 2-1 victory over Wolves at Elland Road on Tuesday night. Stuart Dallas comes up from the bench and starts on the right of midfield with youngster Lewie Coyle dropping to the bench to make way for the Northern Ireland winger. The other change sees Luke Murphy make way for the fit-again Liam Bridcutt in a move that sees Steve Evans likely to employ Bridcutt alongside ‘scoring machine’ Toumani Diagouraga as the base of a five-man midfield.

Danielle is feeling that a result is coming Leeds’ way today.
We haven't won 4 in a row since 08/09 but we've beat dull city once already this season! I'm quite optimistic today!! #LUFC #ALAW

This Leeds fan looks beyond the line-up and to the bench.
I think that Luke Murphy can class himself as being a little unlucky today, but I am sure that he will do a good job when he comes on. #lufc

Tom is looking not at what Leeds put out but one potential player match-up.
Snoddy vs Charlie Taylor should be interesting #lufc

Whites fan Nathan is not bothered who’s in the team, it’s who is out of it that matters.

This Leeds fan turns his attention to the man picking the team, not the team he’s picked.
@WYSdaily Evans deserves his chance…done a job -as for talking too much who else within the club is communicating for the fans #mot #lufc
