Leeds United boss Daniel Farke is expected to take a risk with three of his important first-team players this weekend as the Whites take on table-topping Leicester City.
Leeds’ visit to the King Power Stadium represents their greatest challenge to date in 2023/24 and possibly their sternest test of the entire season. What it will mean after the dust has settled on Friday night is that United will have played the current top two away from home with two-thirds of the campaign remaining.
Leeds were not overly concerned by the issues reported by a trio of important players following the 4-1 win over Huddersfield Town last weekend, and the news that all three have re-entered team training this week is a welcome boost. Crysencio Summerville, Joe Rodon, and Sam Byram are expected to be selected in Farke’s line-up in the East Midlands, despite sustaining knocks and niggles last weekend. The team has had close to a full week’s recovery and, Joe Gelhardt aside, has suffered no further injuries to the group.
