The first away game of Leeds United’s Premier League return serves up a Saturday evening clash at Arsenal no less - and this is how we think the Whites will line up.
Farke’s men already have three points in the bag having recorded a 1-0 victory against Monday night’s visitors Everton amid a cauldron of noise inside Elland Road.
Farke handed three of the club’s summer signings full debuts in keeper Lucas Perri, left back Gabriel Gudmundsson and centre midfielder Anton Stach who all played every minute of the opening weekend success against the Toffees.
Just five days later, a very different test will present itself as Leeds take on title fancies Arsenal and this is the XI that we could see lining up at the Emirates including a new signing decision and Ethan Ampadu call.

2. RB: Jayden Bogle
Another no brainer and a player who will surely be all the better for Monday night's outing which the first choice right back started despite having only returned to training on Friday after his hip flexor injury. | Getty Images
3. CB: Joe Rodon
The usual rock at the back against the Toffees - but now a question mark as to who partners him and in what shape with new £15m centre-back Jaka Bijol back available after serving a one-match ban. | Getty Images
4. CB: Pascal Struijk (and captain)
Rodon and the back-from-suspension Bijol might well end up being the first choice centre-back pairing but Farke felt Struijk was a "colossus" in Monday's win against Everton and it's hard to see him coming out of the side, especially as the player who usually wears the captain's armband in Ampadu's absence. Farke could always go with a three-man centre-back axis but that's not usually his style so Bijol will probably be on the bench. | Getty Images
5. LB: Gabriel Gudmundsson

6. CM: Ilia Gruev
Ampadu's injury means a forced change in centre midfield and essentially a pick between Gruev and Sean Longstaff. Gruev is definitely the more defensive option of the pair which Farke might see as key against the Gunners and the Bulgarian is a pretty confident pick to get the nod. | Getty Images
