Leeds United team news and predicted line-up vs Brighton
Alan Smith has given his thoughts on Leeds United’s survival bid with a Brighton game score prediction.
Former Arsenal star Alan Smith has stated the case for a Leeds United January transfer window ‘need’ with a Brighton game score prediction.
Daniel Farke’s Whites are heading for Saturday afternoon’s Premier League clash at the Amex following last weekend’s 2-1 win at home to West Ham United which kicked Leeds six points clear of the dropzone.
Ex-Gunners ace Smith believes United’s fortunes at Elland Road will be key as part of a season in which he knows survival has to be the “first protocol.”
Smith, though, believes Leeds would further aid their cause by signing another striker in the January transfer window - the addition of which he thinks could potentially get the club into the top half.
“I think they do need a striker,” said Smith.

“I don’t think they’ll be thinking about the top half, and I don’t think they’ve got the squad for that. But in January, if they can get somebody in, who knows?
