This means Leeds could drop to second in the Championship table before the first blast on the referee’s whistle in Oxfordshire.

The greatest question mark around Farke’s team selection today is whether Dan James is passed fit and has travelled with the group. Even if he has made the trip south, there is no guarantee he will make the starting lineup.

There is a chance he will feature in some capacity but a start appears unlikely given Farke did not appear quietly confident about the prospect during Wednesday’s press conference.

Here is the lineup we’re expecting to see at the Kassam Stadium tonight.

He feels it like few football players nowadays do. Rodon is a mainstay in this team and one of Leeds’ unsung heroes if they are to go on and secure promotion this Easter weekend. | Getty Images
