Derby C. vs Leeds Utd U21 Matchday thread

There seems little point in doing this, due to the Premier League's restrictions and the fact this game clashes with the Crystal Palace vs Arsenal season opening game, this game cannot be shown live. Obviously, neutral fans will be abandoning their Sky subscriptions to tune in to watch Derby County vs Leeds U21 squads going through their paces. Madness, and frustrating madness to boot.
But, I said I would do the matchday threat for this season's U21 fixtures.

So here goes.

Welcome to the Premier League 2 Division 2 Matchday Thread, Matchday 1 vs Derby County

Venue...Pride Park Stadium, Derby DE24 8XL.

Date...5th August 2022 ...

Kick Off ...19:00 hrs
Tickets are available should your average Brighton or Bournemouth fan think, you know I fancy a bit of live footie and there's only the Palace/Arsenal game being shown on TV.

This is a new format so there is no recent history, however last years U23 game ended 2:3 goals from Summerville, Greenwood and Gelhardt.

No idea what the line-ups will be, however, I do know that this is the debut for our new U21's coach Michael Skubala and Dan James all being well, will play a full 90 minutes.

Come on boys.

FT 2-5

Don't know if we have to wait until after Palace Arsenal for highlights. Hope not.
