Andrew Taylor and Charlie Cresswell’s Leeds United press conference takes place at Thorp Arch this morning and you can follow their Manchester City preview below. It has been five days since that blunt 1-0 loss with Brighton & Hove Albion in Premier League 2 at their training ground, where Cresswell was unable to inspire a much-needed victory.

The United under-23 boss and his skipper will look ahead to Friday’s visit of Brian Barry-Murphy’s team, who are 22 points and 11 places better off than the Whites in the Premier League 2 table. Taylor, naturally, will provide the latest injury update on the squad and give some insight into who Jesse Marsch may be making available for him on Friday evening.

We are expecting the latest on the squad and there are sure to be questions on the club’s push to break a league attendance record with hopes for more than 17,000 at Elland Road on Friday night. Follow everything the head coach says below.
