Leeds United visit Marti Cifuentes's Queens Park Rangers at Loftus Road in the Championship on Friday night and here are five things to look out for around the match
Patrick Bamford was the one doubt Daniel Farke flagged in his pre-match press conference ahead of Leeds United’s trip to Queens Park Rangers. The striker has what the manager has described as a big bruise on one of his knees, which is serious enough to put him at risk of missing kick-off tonight.
Win in the capital tonight, extend their lead to four points and wait to see what it does, if anything, to the Tractor Boys tomorrow night and Tuesday. Come away with anything less than three points and not only can Ipswich return to second tomorrow, with another game in hand to play, but psychologically it directly emboldens Kieran McKenna’s side.
That freedom and confidence, in their last home game of the season, should open them up for attacking and experimentation. How does Byram hold up? The big risk in keeping Archie Gray in midfield after Monday’s promise is the strain it then puts on Sam Byram at right-back. Can the injury-prone full-back get through 90 minutes on Monday and then do it all over again tonight, four days later?
