Leeds United return to Championship action at Elland Road this evening as they welcome Queens Park Rangers to Yorkshire in the hope of bouncing back from their last match.
Daniel Farke’s side travelled down south to St. Mary’s to take on Southampton live on Sky Sports in the early kick-off last weekend and were beaten 3-1 by Russell Martin’s men
That loss ended a run of six matches without a defeat for the Whites in the league and they will now be looking to return to that imperious run of form, starting with tonight’s clash under the lights.
What’s the latest Leeds team news?
Farke has confirmed that a number of players will remain unavailable for selection against QPR as they continue to recover from their respective injury issues.
On-loan right-back Djed Spence and Italy international Wilfried Gnonto are both on track to return to action after the international break this month. The latter has scored one goal in five league outings so far this season and could face a fight on his hands to win back his place in the side.
Left-back Junior Firpo is also set to return to training on the other side of the break, whilst Northern Ireland international Stuart Dallas has had a minor setback and will be back with the squad over the next few days.
The German head coach also commented on the performance of central defender Liam Cooper in his pre-match press conference as he conceded that the game against Southampton was not his ‘best’ day in a Leeds shirt.
