The match officials for Leeds United’s Premier League clash with Crystal Palace on Saturday night have been announced, with Thomas Bramall set to take charge at Elland Road.
The Select Group official is in his fourth season in the Premier League. In that time, the 35-year-old has overseen 39 top-flight matches beginning with a 2022 meeting between Fulham and Brighton & Hove Albion.
The Sheffield-native has worked his way up the English football pyramid, with more than 125 EFL matches officiated. In their three games refereed by Bramall, the Whites have won once and drawn on one occasion.
The Eagles, meanwhile, have recorded three wins in their seven matches officiated by the referee, drawing three. In their last match overseen by Bramall, Palace lost 1-0 away to Arsenal in October.
On the official’s last visit to Elland Road, the home side were beaten 2-1 by Tottenham Hotspur, with Noah Okafor scoring for the Whites.
