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.
7. CM: Anton Stach
Giant summer signing Stach is another obvious Ampadu replacement as the deeper centre midfielder but Farke will probably want two of them against the Gunners and either way the impressive Stach is surely a certainty to start. | Getty Images
8. CM: Ao Tanaka
There were no shortage of contenders but fans voted Tanaka as the team's man of the match against Everton and he seems another sho-in to start at the Emirates. probably as the more advanced player of the midfield three. | Getty Images
9. RW: Dan James
James had a bit of a frustrating evening against Everton but always remained a threat out wide with his lightning pace and it would be a surprise if there was a change. | Getty Images
10. LW: Willy Gnonto
£18m new signing Okafor seems a very likely starter once he gets going but Gnonto was probably United's best attacking player against the Toffees before being subbed for Brenden Aaronson in the 68th minute and it would be a major surprise if he did not keep his place in the side. Jack Harrison looked bright when coming on for the closing stages and is another option, as is Largie Ramazani, but Gnonto looks like being the one, for now. | Getty Images
11. ST: Joel Piroe
Last season's Golden Boot winner Piroe got the nod to start upfront ahead of Lukas Nmecha against Everton although Nmecha proved the game's matchwinner with his thunderous 84th-minute penalty and generally impressed after replacing Piroe in the 78th minute. Nmecha is clearly pushing and new signing Dominic Calvert-Lewin won't have been bought to sit on the bench and he should soon be in the mix too but the feeling for the moment is that Piroe remains the call. | Getty Images
