Leeds have taken 31 points from the last 33 available, while Wednesday have won five of their last six in the league, which means Friday's contest pits two of the division's most in-form sides against each other. Farke is unlikely to make wholesale changes despite the quick turnaround between fixtures as he seeks to rely on the momentum generated by continuity and rhythm in his team selection over what has been a hugely successful couple of months.
United's midfield could see the solitary change Farke possibly makes as Archie Gray returns to the starting line-up fresh-legged after sitting out the vast majority of Tuesday night's 1-0 win over Stoke City. Plenty of Farke's players have received bumps and bruises over the course of this season but remarkably, most have managed to stay fit for large parts, and no further injuries were reported in the wake of Leeds' midweek victory.
Here is the XI we anticipate Farke will name in S6 on Friday night.
7. Archie Gray - CM
Glen Kamara has appeared ever so slightly off the boil in recent appearances which opens the door for teenage prodigy Gray to return from the start - in central midfield. | Getty Images
8. Dan James - RW
Eleven goals for the season after scoring the winner against Stoke. Hard and low has been the mantra for James this term, and it's paying dividends. | Getty Images
9. Crysencio Summerville - LW
Another, like Kamara, who's perhaps been feeling the effects of the fixture list lately. What better than a local derby to get back in the mood? | Jonathan Gawthorpe
10. Georginio Rutter - CF
Driving this team on with his creativity, Georginio is crucial to Leeds' success in these final ten games. | Getty Images
11. Patrick Bamford - ST
Mateo Joseph is knocking on the door, but Daniel Farke is most likely to stick with experience for a fixture of this magnitude. | Jonathan Gawthorpe
