It's got to be a temptation for Farke at lunchtime
Leeds United host Derby County in a 12.30pm kick-off at Elland Road today, with the chance to climb into the Championship’s automatic promotion spots. Daniel Farke 's team hosts a Paul Warne side with only one win from their last nine matches and their last two games were 2-1 home defeats.Who gets the nod at left-back? Junior Firpo will be named on the left side of defence if he shakes off the training ground knock he picked up on Wednesday.
If it were any other player, Farke might hold them back an extra week, but given Ampadu’s importance in the dressing room and on the field, it would not be a major surprise if he snuck onto the bench today. If the match is going United’s way, even five or 10 minutes from the dugout would be feasible based on his training involvement.What does Farke do with the front four? By the end of the three-match week we had going into Ewood Park, we had a handle on Farke’s rotation in the wide areas.
Wilfried Gnonto has been up and down, but did carry the team’s biggest threat on a poor day in Lancashire. Manor Solomon remains inconsistent, but was building momentum in Farke’s eyes last week.
