In an effort to revitalize the front line following Leeds United’s 1-1 draw with Blackburn Rovers, Daniel Farke may decide to bench Dan James as one of three changes when Leeds United plays Hull City.
James might be fired following a lackluster performance on New Year’s Day, while the Whites will be missing Jayden Bogle and Sam Byram for the trip to Hull after the two received knocks in the most recent match against Blackburn.
The Welshman has made a comeback at Elland Road, but as the winter months are as busy as ever, he might be benched in order to relax, with Willy Gnonto expected to return.
Daniel Farke will face a selection issue in his defensive setup with three full-backs out injured, perhaps paving the way for Isaac Schmidt to make his first start for the club, with Max Wober expecting to be called up again.
Will Isaac Schmidt make his entire Leeds United debut?
Leeds’ tie with Blackburn resulted in the loss of two valuable points, but it also raised further concerns about injuries, with a pattern emerging.
With Junior Firpo already out due to injury, Farke did not need his other two natural full-backs to sustain injuries, but that is exactly what happened, and Leeds will most likely be without the trio for the match at the MKM Stadium.
