Leeds United squad revealed for Blackburn Rovers with one big doubt and two players sidelined

Leeds United go to Blackburn Rovers today chasing a fourth straight Championship victory. There is a strong possibility Daniel Farke will change a winning team, with Sam Byram unlikely to be risked after being forced off with a hamstring injury in the midweek win over Luton Town.

Whites boss Farke is able to call upon Junior Firpo at left-back again. The former Barcelona man is expected to come in for Byram, having served a three-match suspension.

It will be interesting to see if Farke decides to rotate his United squad as they prepare to embark on their third match in six days. Daniel James and Mateo Joseph could come into Farke's thoughts should the German elect to freshen up his attacking options.

Describing eighth-placed Rovers as "one of the top teams in the division", Farke said: “It's a tough test for us and it will be another difficult game, but we don't complain, we just want to make sure that we are on it again.

“We expect also a tight game and we have to fight, and have to use each and every percent in order to give ourselves a chance to win as many points as possible.”

Midfield duo Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev (both knee) are ruled out of the clash. More than 7,000 United supporters will be in attendance for the Ewood Park clash, which gets under way at 1:30pm.

"I think the supporters are the most valuable asset of this club," said Farke. "It's second to none, they’re very enthusiastic and they can play an important part to be the 12th man in home games and away games.

"We have one big unity together with our supporters and again for such an away game, to have such a travelling support, is amazing.

“Of course it's also big extra motivation in order to make our supporters happy, not just the travelling ones but also everyone who is nail-biting at home and follows this game. We want to send them back with a positive performance, a positive result, and we'll try our best in order to make this happen.”

Leeds United squad vs Blackburn Rovers: Meslier, Darlow, Cairns, Byram, Bogle, Struijk, Rodon, Struijk, Wober, Debayo, Firpo, James, Gnonto, Rothwell, Tanaka, Guilavogui, Crew, Solomon, Ramazani, Aaronson, Piroe, Joseph, Bamford, Gelhardt.
