Where bookies think Leeds & Man U will finish in predicted final table

Whites winger James returned from Wales international duty with a back injury which saw him miss last weekend's first game back in the Premier League at Arsenal. James, though, was back on the pitch with his Leeds teammates on Thursday and now faces a late check. Farke said on Friday: "Since yesterday he was back on the pitch with us. We have to wait how his body reacts. But at least good news with him – he is back in training and seems to be improved. The intensity in the last days was not too high. We have to wait right now also how his body reacts and how he comes through the last two sessions before the game but there is a chance that he is involved.”
