Leeds United won 2-1 in the reverse Championship fixture at Elland Road. It was a game where Argyle showed their organisation and strengths but these were not enough to over come a determined Whites side.
Farke’s side has seven consecutive wins under their belt in 2024. This blistering form has lifted them to 2nd in the Championship table.
Plymouth Argyle are unbeaten at home in the league since October. Leeds United’s last visit to Home Park saw them win their FA Cup replay tie with a 4-1 extra-time victory.
Leeds United team news
Ahead of the game, Daniel Farke issued the latest on his squad (as relayed by the Yorkshire Evening Post).
Farke confirmed that absentees Karl Darlow and Pascal Struijk will miss the game. The club is awaiting next week’s medical scans to allow the pair to step up their training load.
Perhaps the biggest news – although largely expected – is that striker Patrick Bamford is confirmed out of the game. Journalist Joe Donnohue reported on Twitter that Bamford has a calf issue that will keep him out ‘for 10-12 days’.
