Anton Stach Clapping Liverpool

Leeds United midfielder Anton Stach has been shortlisted for the Premier League Player of the Matchweek 15 award after a commanding all-round display in Saturday’s exhilarating 3-3 draw with Liverpool at Elland Road.

Matchweek 15 of the 2025/26 Premier League season delivered no shortage of standout individual performances across the division, with eight players earning a place on the League’s shortlist.

Supporters now have the chance to cast their vote, with polls open until 12:00 GMT on Wednesday 10 December. The winner will be announced later that day.

Stach’s nomination comes after he played a pivotal role in a thrilling six-goal contest, showcasing the blend of defensive intelligence and attacking drive that has quickly made him a fan favourite in West Yorkshire.

The German international produced one of his finest performances in a Leeds shirt, firing home the Whites’ second goal in the 75th minute - a precise finish that arrived just moments after Dominic Calvert-Lewin had converted from the penalty spot. Stach’s strike ignited a dramatic finale, with Leeds pushing relentlessly for a result.

His impact didn’t end there. It was Stach’s expertly delivered corner that led to Leeds’ late equaliser, underlining his influence in both phases of play. Across the 90 minutes he was heavily involved, amassing:

  • 60 touches

  • 37 accurate passes

  • 3 key passes

  • 6 recoveries

  • 4 duels won

It was a performance full of energy, composure and leadership—qualities that have typified his season so far.

Leeds supporters can show their appreciation by backing Stach in the Premier League’s official vote.
