Leeds United early team news vs Sheffield United revealed as Daniel Farke issues new injury update and ban response

Leeds United manager Daniel Farke previews his side’s visit to Bramall Lane on Monday night as top-of-the-table Whites take on Chris Wilder’s Sheffield United.

Leeds can open up a five-point gap on the Blades on Monday evening, if they manage to secure all three points against Wilder’s men.

The South Yorkshire club have won four on the bounce since a surprise 3-0 home defeat by Hull City, meanwhile, Leeds are on a 15-game unbeaten streak of their own in the Championship.

Farke’s side know they cannot afford to take their foot off the gas and will need to be at their very best to beat a team who have gone toe-to-toe with them throughout the first 33 games of this season.

Max Wober (knee) is ruled out of this one after undergoing surgery while Patrick Bamford (hamstring) continues to be a doubt. Sheffield United are hopeful of having Tom Cannon (ankle), Gus Hamer (hamstring) and Kieffer Moore (hernia) all back available for Monday night’s fixture.

Updates from Farke’s press conference here throughout the afternoon. The manager is scheduled to speak from 1:30pm.
