Millwall vs Leeds United press conference live: Daniel Farke offers fitness update as strong squad expected

Leeds United manager Daniel Farke hosts his pre-match press conference this afternoon as the Whites prepare to take on Millwall at The Den on their return to Championship action.

Leeds will arrive at Millwall bright and early on Sunday morning, primed for a lunchtime kick-off in the capital. The fixture will pit Farke against opposite number Gary Rowett for the sixth time, the German still in search of his first victory over the wily Lions coach.

In his employ, Farke counts on ex-Millwall loanees Charlie Cresswell and Jamie Shackleton, although the latter is more likely to start than the former.

Archie Gray and Crysencio Summerville remained at Thorp Arch over the international break despite the opportunity to join up with their respective youth international teams and should be fighting fit for Sunday’s encounter at The Den.
