Triple boost as Daniel Farke selects attacking Leeds United side at Man United | OneFootball

Daniel Farke has named an attacking Leeds United side for tonight’s Premier League trip to Manchester United at Old Trafford, as Gabi Gudmundsson, Jaka Bijol and Noah Okafor all start.

According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, Anton Stach and Joe Rodon are out after ankle injuries sustained in last weekend’s FA Cup quarter-final win at West Ham, while Dan James remains sidelined with an adductor strain.

Gudmundsson returned from international duty with minor groin trouble and missed the tie at West Ham. Bijol felt the effects of a knock and had not trained by Thursday. Okafor was withdrawn in the second half at the London Stadium and then missed Thursday’s session due to back problems.

Farke said on Thursday that all three would have been unavailable had the game been on Friday, and he hoped extra recovery time might bring them back.

Leeds United line-up: Darlow, Bogle, Justin, Bijol, Struijk, Gudmundsson, Ampadu, Tanaka, Aaronson, Okafor, Calvert-Lewin. Substitutes: Perri, Byram, Bornauw, Longstaff, Gruev, Gnonto, Buonanotte, Piroe, Nmecha.
