""It's one of those things when it works better than something else," Bijol told BBC Radio Leeds. Having one formation makes it easier for our opponents, so now it makes it harder for everyone to prepare for us.""
""As per any Premier League team, they have a big squad and they are ready to change it up. Everyone at that level is a top player that can come on and make a difference.""
""I am sure they will be ready for Saturday night to come and perform, but I am sure we will give our all. We know we are able to score, and one goal against doesn't throw us off.""
Leeds have switched to a 3-5-2 formation using three centre-backs, with Noah Okafor or Lukas Nmecha supporting Dominic Calvert-Lewin, adding a new attacking and defensive dimension. The change has reduced predictability and made tactical preparation more difficult for opponents. Leeds have collected five points from matches against Chelsea, Liverpool and Brentford, and a point would keep them above 18th-placed West Ham ahead of Christmas. Crystal Palace drew 2-2 with KuPS and rotated heavily, but they face a congested schedule including an EFL Cup quarter-final against Arsenal and Premier League matches against Tottenham and Fulham. Leeds remain confident about scoring and resilience after conceding.
