Leeds United may field four different players when they face Watford in the Championship on Sunday, September 24 at Elland Road.
The German confirmed that Wilfried Gnonto is out with an injury and that he will be obliged to make a change at center-back following Joe Rodon’s dismissal.
When asked if Charlie Cresswell or Liam Cooper would take his position, he stated on Friday that he has two superb left-footed centre-backs who can also play together.
However, having a right-left combination will be easier, as Cresswell started the season and is not recovering from an injury.
As a result, we expect him to start on the right side of defense with Pascal Struijk.
He recently signed a long-term contract, so he could have requested assurances about playing time.
Another change is likely at left-back, with Sam Byram replacing Jamie Shackleton, who began the 0-0 draw with Hull City.
Archie Gray, a first-team regular this season, will almost certainly be tired and may be rested for this one, with Glen Kamara making his maiden league start.
On the right, deadline-day addition Jaidon Anthony might get the start, with Dan James shifting to the left wing, where he has proven dangerous.
Farke will make four changes as he seeks his first home win of the season.
